You really overplayed your Troll cards here.

She is a medical doctor. Her patients have watched the transformation, and she tells them she gave up sugar and started exercising. I feel like that is a lie by omission. And honestly, I exercise more than she does.
I am a size 12/14 and have been on the weight loss yo-yo for years. I’ll lose weight and drop down to an 6/8, and then “life” happens – I broke my ankle, our house flooded, I was bitten by a black widow… and my stress eating = gain it all back.
I am tempted by the GLP-1, but also hesitant. I do not want to inject myself (or take a pill) for the rest of my life. (60% gain the weight back when they stop the injections). I do not want to be low energy. But I am envious of her when I am struggling with my weight loss. And irritated when she tells me it’s just about cutting sugar and exercising.
Thanks for listening to me vent my jealousy.

I don't know if this is a troll or not, but this person should be working with her doctor now that she's lost the weight to figure how to stay on GLPs healthily. I have lost 60 lbs over 2 years and am just now getting to my goal weight. I have to meet with my doctor every 3-6 months to discuss medication follow up. Since I'm near my goal weight, I've been stretching out my doses to every 10 days which seems to be working. She also said we could lower the dose to see if I would maintain. Going from a 16/18 to a 0 doesn't seem healthy.

For me, the GLP has been a God send. I have struggled with my weight since my teens and gained a lot during Covid, early 50s. I am definitely not a size 0 now and never will be, but I am happy and feel like I look good again. I am willing to do an injection for the rest of my life if it means I can maintain this weight. I would try it, OP!

I get it OP. I wish I could start a glp1 to turn off all the food noise but literally no one will prescribe it to me unless I lie about my weight in a virtual appt. I am thin, a size 00/0 at 43 but it takes SO MUCH effort to stay this way at this age post kids. I eat perfectly and track everything I eat, exercise every day, deny my cravings for sugar and junk all day, and go to bed hungry at night. And of course my husband and young kids with high metabolisms can and do eat whatever they want with no impact on weight. So my house is filled with all sorts of temptations I live with everyday.

If your post is true, she is taking a high dose and continuing at that high dose. I started Zepbound in July 2025 and have gone from a size 20/22 to a 12/14. I still get hungry and would not be full on 3 bites of a salad. I have appointments every 6-8 weeks to go over my weight and nutrition.

I’m thrilled with my progress and have no problem taking it forever. It gives me a nice balance and I can eat out and eat regular food with friends at restaurants. It’s all about moderation.

This makes zero sense.

Oh ... the trolling is hot on this thread, lol. Probably the sock puppetry is too.

It takes away your hunger. Ed people no longer have to rely on force of will or mental illness, just take glp.

Thank you for admitting that you are posting out of jealousy.

So you know exactly when she started the med, tells you she is lying to her patients and yet she is telling you she lost it by sugar cutting and exercising? Yeah, it’s one or the other: she told you she’s on a glp1 AND what she’s telling her patients about her weightless OR she didn’t tell
You she was on one and tells you it was due to increased exercise and cutting out sugar.

Work on getting your story straight when you wanna troll around.

GLPs cause you to lose a lot of muscle, not just fat.

So unlikely that I'm 100% convinced this is a fake post.

I'm 55, on a GLP1, and went from a size 18 to a size 10 over 2 years. And she's a doctor? And on a GLP1 and tells you "it's just about cutting sugar and exercising"? Lol. Ok.

Just another iteration of GLP1 rage baiting/trolling.

DP. My sibling is a doctor married to a doctor. When they showed up at Christmas and I asked how they lost weight (they've been dieting on various diets for years), my sibling said "I've been working out a lot!" in a smug way and my in law said, "I ate less."

How did you find out?

P.S. You were rude to ask that question.
