[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes -- the vast majority of people who have stoped it are gaining weight back. This is the main reason I'm not jumping on the bandwagon. So it's no different than most ways of losing weight; the biggest challenge isn't losing the weight, the biggest challenge is keeping it off.

[b]So, no. You have no experience that OP is asking for?  Why do these people insist on responding to these threads.[/b]

OP, there are a lot of semaglutide subreddits dedicated to maintaining. I would look there, not dcum, because you’ll be overwhelmed with negative people like this PP. there are some people. Who struggle to maintain and some people who do just fine. It depends on you and the changed you make. [/quote]

Why would I respond? Because I've been considering semaglutide for months, and have had multiple conversations with my doctor about it -- and then I researched it. I have lost about 90lbs with diet and[b] exercise twice, and it has all piled back on[/b] both times and I feel like I can't go through that again. So I've researched the issue extensively with regard to the new weight loss meds, including Ozempic.

OP, most people who lose weight on semaglutide and then go off it do not do "just fine," they gain the weight back. [/quote]

Could you share with us - were you just not able to maintain the dietary and exercise habits you’d used to lose the weight?[/quote]

I lost the weight on WW. Both times. Once I met my goal I stopped obsessively counting points. And then the weight returned. Both times.  I don't ever want to go back to WW, the points counting became obsession (it kind of has to take over your life if you want it to work) and that is no way to live -- being obsessed all day every day with your food intake. That is how it was for me, anyway. It took me a year and a half to lose 90lbs, and when I met my goal I saw my doctor because I couldn't figure out why I was almost fainting and my hair was falling out; it was the sustained calorie deficit. That is the main reason I stopped counting the points the last time. But, yeah -- then the weight came back. And here I am. Obese again. [/quote]
