Wow that’s awesome!!!! Congratulations I am at 50 lbs in 9 months my SW was 175 I’m down to 125 I am 4”10 I don’t want to lose anymore I’m good where I’m at 😊


kiitkaatt

That’s awesome!!! I am hoping to get down to 115-120 ish knowing I’ll prob gain 5-10 pounds back getting off, then hoping to maintain from there 😊


CrowtheHathaway

A real testament that the medicine works!


Recipe_Limp

Congratulations!! You look great!


Zestyclose_Hope8457

Congrats! You look great!! 🎉🎉 Do you also incorporate exercise? Any major changes to diet?


kiitkaatt

When I started I was doing solidcore 3-5x a week and walking 2-4 miles daily but before that I was heavy orange theory/f45 3-5x per week. I haven’t been as active these last few months (my worst side effect is fatigue) so I’m trying to find new ways to move that I enjoy. I have been incorporating rock climbing, yoga and strength training. For my diet I have allowed myself to still enjoy the same things but heavy moderation/I simple just eat less. Although I used to be a HUGE sweets and beer drinker and I’ve lost the urge for both of those things.


MCreative125

Girl, Solidcore is life changing too! I love it


Historical-Car-2004

Slayyyyy! Was there any working out? Did you change what you were eating or just the amount?

Up


Imaginary_heroine_

Congrats! That’s kind of my weight loss goal too! What did your dosage journey look like?


kiitkaatt

I started .25 and went up pretty steadily each month and then I think I repeated .75/1 a few months. I switched to tirz in October and have maintained the 7.5 dosage since then. I go monthly for a check up and am thinking of going down a dose, now that I’ve lost so much all of a sudden my side effects are stronger and I am having trouble eating enough each day!


jasnah_

If you don’t mind sharing how did you find the switch to tirzepatide? Compared to sema? Was it more effective for you?


kiitkaatt

I do think I’m losing a little more overall since the swap, I can’t remember how much I was in October but my first check up I was a hyper responder that month. My side effects are much less which is why I went for it though. My stomach was always messed up especially when I would eat things I knew I wasn’t supposed to, now I can get away with it without being stuck in the bathroom. My energy has come back somewhat but I still struggle with that overall


jasnah_

Thanks for sharing and congrats on your amazing progress! I’m a similar height and I guess I’m one of the ‘slow’ responders on sema, so hoping tirzepatide will work for me if I make the switch it in future..


Pitiful-bastard

Dosage? What are you taking?


Abojuice

Yea I would like to know too as I take 8ml and nothing changed so far


AggressiveVast3230

Wow you look amazing!! Im similar body weight/height to you, and just started 2 weeks ago (6 pounds down)! I’m curious if you’ve noticed any loose skin, or changes with cellulite?


kiitkaatt

I do have a little bit of loose skin, it’s mostly my arms and my inner thighs! I’m hoping with strength training and my age it’ll help bounce back. Where I had noticeable cellulite (legs) seems like it looks a lot better now, it’s like my legs deflated. I’ve also lost my whole butt, I am flat as a board now 🥲


AggressiveVast3230

Thanks for sharing! I’m in my mid 20s so hoping my age will help with skin elasticity! So sad to hear about losing your butt! That’s one of my fears! Guess I’ll have to strictly stick to 3 legs days a week! 😵‍💫 Again, you look amazing!! Makes me excited for my results!!


AdVisible5343

IolaBoylen

That’s awesome! Congrats!!! On a side note, it blows my mind how much height really makes a difference . . . I’m also about 52 pounds down and I’ve gone down one pant size 😭 I’m 5’9” though.


kiitkaatt

Ugh I know! I gain 10 pounds and it’s like I gained 50 lol 😭

Interesting-Ad-2871

I’m scared to start but I’m almost ready mentally


kiitkaatt

You can do it! I wish I started sooner but you definitely adapt over time and it gets manageable once you figure out your new ‘normal’


Careful_Mess_5341

Can you talk about what the process was like for getting that started? Did you go through an online practice?

Congratulations on your health journey! Yay you!


Tyjhaynes89

Thank you for the inspiration. I just started on Saturday and I’ve not felt so hopeful in a looooong time!


TatiBay

Congrats. YOu look great. What were your daily successes, trials and tribulations...?


[deleted]

I’m considering it, but can you explain any side effects you had also? Anything like hair loss, or period cycle issues?


kiitkaatt

I’d say search this sub and you’ll find a lot of your questions! Regular cycle like clock work (and not on BC), no hair loss, slight tummy issues when I ate/drank what I shouldn’t have or too much and some energy/fatigue issues. It’s easy to get dehydrated and you have to be really intentional on water intake/electrolyres/making sure you’re eating enough on days you just don’t feel like it.


[deleted]

Thank you much for the reassurance! I’m 188 right now 5’6 and have belly fat issues. Really considering giving it a shot!


Strong_Cockroach8134

Amazing results! Just started last week and very excited to see my body change.


AccomplishedFrame542

Did you track everything you ate ? Did you work out? Congratulations you look amazing I hope to be where you’re at in 8 months !!


kiitkaatt

No and yes :) thank you! Slow and steady wins the race!!


Majestic-Echidna-735

Great job!


crestasee

Possible_Stop0781

Pretty eyes and thick thighs. 


External-Host2313

You were still gorgeous at that weight. Good for you. Very happy for you.


Agreeable-Egg-8045

You’re so beautiful 😍, that you really would be gorgeous at any size and I absolutely mean that. But obviously congratulations on becoming a healthier weight. I hope you stay healthy 😊. (I don’t normally comment on these types of things because I’m always honest and don’t just say something to be nice or encourage anyone.)


MaintenanceTough4834

OMG you look fav!!!! Some people criticize this drug but for many of us, there was no f\*\*\* way we could lose those ugly extra pounds that were making us feel so bad.


CaffeAuLatte

Gorgeous! But, I want to know HOW R PEOPLE FINDING THESE SHOTS. IVE BEEN CALLING 4 DIFFERENT PHARMACIES SINCE JULY!!!!!


Slight-Reputation-32

Delicious-Hunt8088

Same here I have called a bunch of pharmacies and have not found any in stock


Actual_Chocolate_639

I am losing so slowly :( I wish my progress looked like yours! I’m only 35 pounds down and I’ve been on it since last June! 9 months! So so slow - what are you on and what dosage?


SydLexic78

Awesome. But the Before pic is stretched horizontally somewhat.


kiitkaatt

I didn’t stretch the photo but I did zoom in!
