Hi, I am BioBob.

Late 30's, and overweight for as long as I can remember. 20 years of losing and regaining, with plenty of yo-yoing along the way. Recently the weight came off on its own — 75 lbs, down to 365 — and then stalled hard. Meal prep, exercise, and what looked like a reasonable intake, and not a pound would move. I'm fairly sure cortisol plays a part too, given my history.

Over the holidays I gave up on dieting and ate whatever I fancied, and climbed back toward 400. Then I got down to 385, a friend offered Reta, and I gave it a go. Not cheap, but four weeks later I'm back at 365. I feel different, and how well it worked genuinely surprised me.

Weight loss is the focus, though I'm open to learning about any other benefits worth knowing about. Thanks again for having me — good to be here.

Welcome, and congratulations. Weight control was something I struggled with as well, and Glp-1s have completely altered the game. If you remain on them for a long enough period, your connection with food will shift. And chances are, your relationship with the gym will improve too. They deliver instant protective Health benefits , going past whatever weight comes off.

Indeed, my own beginning on them was quite costly as well, until I discovered this place. These days it's a steal.

Best of luck as you keep moving forward on your health journey.

I appreciate it. I'm going through a lot of threads and attempting to piece everything together. I'm eager to continue moving forward. There's a great deal I need to understand about all of this. This evening, I managed to get outdoors and play catch with my child, running around. That's something I haven't been able to do in quite a while. I'm excited for the chance to truly live once more!
