First week of Zepbound
it’s taken a lot of thought and frustration to get me to taking Zepbound. Firstly, it’s darn expensive (am self paying) and then all the noise about nausea and other GI issues. Must say I am eating better and smaller amounts (as much protein as I can), drinking water and starting to move more. I only had one issue after…

What weighs ___ lbs?
This is so random but it’s kind of a fun way to visualize how much weight you’ve lost- Google ‘what weighs ____lbs?’ Inserting the exact amount you’ve lost. Someone mentioned in another group they lost 6 lbs and someone else replied saying they lost a whole chihuahua haha! For example- I have lost 23.2 lbs so far so I have…

Gym beginner overwhelmed with rules and macros and protein and calorie intake, calorie deficit:(
I’ve been at it for more than 2 months now and it still feels like a diet instead of a lifestyle, and I’m used to eating whole food with lots of fresh veggies and fruits but, I guess I lack organisation and consistency, adding to all that the disappointment when stepping on the scale, it’s not going back up, but not going…

Newbie tips and suggestions ?
I’ve come to a point in my life where I’m discontented and disconnected with my body. I’m 20 years old, and have went from being active and full time athlete as a juvenile, to a completely sedentary adult.

Hey, my name's Rei, like everyone here I'm trying to lose weight and be healthy. I feel like the pacing is so slow, with my caloric intake of around 1500 a day, it will still take me 2 months to lose only 10lbs.
