I just have to chuckle. I have probably lost 500lbs total over the years. Up, down, rinse repeat.  No one came around and offered me a trophy when I lost the weight, I'm sure some judged when I gained it back. GLPs, specifically Tirzepatide have allowed me to lose the weight (again) but now I have a tool in the toolbox of weight loss that is helping me keep it off.  I am now in maintenance and take a small weekly dose, just like a person who takes blood pressure medicine or anything else...it is obvious that my glp receptors need help.
I now feel like I imagine normal people feel, no constant thoughts about food, just going about living my life. After 160lb loss, I AM living my life and I could care less what people think and I do not hide what I have done, just incase, it does help someone out there who, like me struggled for decades of yo yo dieting and living a life of full-time fitness just to find it creeping back on.
