Not OP, but I'm on one and wouldn't recommend it for 20lb loss (bad side effects are possible if not likely, and people gain the weight back when they go off the med). But it's a free country...

I would totally recommend it. I lost 10 pounds effortlessly with no side effects and now I take it once a month just to stay on track. I’m so annoyed that I was scared to try it and spent years trying to lose that last spare tire around my waist!

+1. At this point the ones who aren't on a GLP stick out like sore thumbs, because they are the only ones who are fat.

It’s interesting to me when GLP users cry about the non-GLP posters being so mean. Takes a lot of selective blindness to see only that.

I figured out the trick! Quit working and make getting healthy your full time job!

I’m a teacher and had an unrelated health scare at the end of the school year. Decided that if I survived I promised myself to take my health far more seriously. So here I am, alive and well, and dedicating my days to meal prepping and committing to reasonable work outs daily. And I’m looking and feeling good! Of course, it’s completely unsustainable when school starts again. Hoping to gain some habits that are reasonable to continue.

Lol. I am a teacher too and it is so nice to be able to eat healthy meals in the summer. I've tried new recipes and it's been fun. I also believe that getting better quality sleep (no trouble sleeping due to school stress) and exercise (hello gym!) really help. The new recipes I've tried and ones I plan on making on weekends and freezing. I can make two recipes on a weekend and get 4 meals out of them. I can fill out the rest of the nights with breakfast for dinner or soup/sandwiches, etc. I've never had issues with eating healthy for breakfast and lunch but dinner has always been my weakness (Oh my God, I'm starving! I'll just eat _________).

I was going to start a thread with this. I am eating almost no processed food and find my appetite is so much more healthy and what it should be. I make my own salad dressings and sauces/bread/and basically everything used for a shortcut. Fage Greek yogurt is about as processed as I go. I also make sure to get enough fat and I use whole milk in my coffee which is supposedly the least processed of the choices. Weight is finally coming off-slowly. The difference is, there is no hunger battle. Lunch is my biggest meal and it's huge. Dinner is my smallest-better for digestion. Food noise only comes on before a meal. It's a big pain in the rear doing all this work to avoid processed, but for one of kids all digestive issues vanished so no need to go to the doctor.
