    Long-time lurker, first-time poster

    Glad you're here! Dropping 12 lbs over 10 weeks is a great beginning, particularly when you're juggling a packed schedule. Your take on the scale is exactly right. Once lifting comes back into the picture, body composition starts changing, and holding onto muscle will naturally make the scale...

    INTRO Nervous Nelly

    Glad to have you here! And kudos for getting started — that initial move isn't easy, particularly if past medications have left you with bad experiences.

    INTRO I’m YODA!

    Yoda, good to have you join the forum! Nice that you made it over here. It’s honestly surprising how fast progress can happen after you begin reading up on the studies and return to a consistent gym schedule. Moving on from the fast food and beer stage is a huge achievement on its own, so well...

    INTRO New here to learn

    Nice work reaching your goal weight! Spending all day on your feet in the trades wears you out as it is, so staying on top of your weight while doing that is seriously tough. Great to hear Reta made such a big difference for you. Getting to that milestone in 6 months is a major accomplishment...

    INTRO Newer than a Newbie

    Welcome aboard! Honestly, I'd guess quite a few of us have been in that same spot. Once you begin exploring all of this, the learning curve is steep for sure. I often catch myself with a bunch of fresh tabs open, just because somebody used a term that was completely new to me. The bright side...

    New Member Introduction from England

    Welcome! You've clearly done a great deal of work already to reach your current physical state, and it's notable that reta's mental effects have stood out to you just as much as its impact on appetite. Many folks arrive here focused only on shedding pounds, yet less food noise and reduced...

    INTRO Hello from south florida!

    To start, what you've achieved so far is seriously impressive. Dropping from 330 down to 244 since January is no small feat. Beyond what the scale shows, I'd imagine you feel worlds apart from the version of you that began this. It's genuinely nice when someone is open about the wins and the...

    INTRO Hello from PA

    Welcome aboard! To start, nice work on the 15 pounds you've already dropped. That's a solid beginning. And 290 down to 190 is a serious feat as well. Sure, you may have regained part of that along the way, but you've shown yourself it's possible. It seems like you bring a lot of know-how and...

    INTRO Pale Girl Looking for the Easy Way Out

    Welcome aboard! Just so you know, around here a tiny question tends to snowball into a serious pastime. 😅 Plenty of us were standing right where you are now. You begin thinking "all I want is a tan," then suddenly you're lining up COAs side by side, digging through lab reports, and absorbing...

    Sifting fact from noise before deciding anything

    Introducing myself properly, instead of staying a silent reader. My 30s are where I am, and like plenty of others, the life I pictured as a younger person isn't quite the one that arrived. Taking better care of myself has taken different forms across the years. A few of them worked for a...
