Hi!

I'm new here. 44-year-old mother of two adult children. I was just diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and started Ozempic 07/17/25 to help regulate my glucose levels. I have been obese all my life. Had gastric bypass back in 2001 but gained all the weight back within 3 years after having my children.
SW (07/17/25): 374 lbs
CW (07/27/25): 368 lbs
This weeks' goal: Drink more water
Monthly goal: 359 lbs by 08/27/25
