Week 4 Weigh-In

Happy Wednesday everyone! It's that time again. Today's weigh-in was 158. So 2 lbs lost again this week for a total of 11 lbs since I started. I am just happy to be out of the 160's but of course I wish I was losing faster.

This past week of the 2.4 dose went fairly well. I had no nausea issues until this past Monday where I felt really sick an hour after my shot and threw up a few times. That is the only time I have vomited. I'm not sure if it was the medicine or something else, but I seemed to get over it quickly.  I have still had the heart-burn but it has not been as bad as in the past.

Today I started with the 3.0 dose (the highest I will get to). I'm hoping I won't have any trouble. I have also added in exercize this past week, taking a 3 to 4 mile walk every night after work and doing some weight training twice per week. Hoping that will speed things along a bit.

I hope everyone is doing great!

Week 3 Weigh In

Hi Everyone! Happy Wednesday. Here we are again at weigh in day for me. I only lost another 2 lbs this week and I have to say I am quite disappointed that it was not more. I feel like I am hardly eating anything and I have started back to exercize as well. I was really hoping to be out of the 160's by now! I wish the weight loss would go quicker...LOL! But, alas, I will take what I can get, right?
Here are this week's stats:

Today's weight:  160
Weight loss this week: 2 lbs
Total weight loss: 9 lbs

Today I started on dose 2.4 mg so we will see what it brings! This past week, I had pretty bad nausea and heartburn again for the first 3 days of the 1.8. But by the weekend that had disappeared. I did seem to have a headache almost every day also and I'm not sure if that was due to the medicine or if it was caused by some other kind of stress (i.e. work).  Trying to keep my head up and spirits high. After all, 2 lbs is 2lbs.
