[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wanted to see if anyone had this issue. 5’4 (128 lbs) down from 142.

- Eat lots of veggies and fairly clean, about 1400 calories, good amount of protein 
- hypothyroid, autoimmune issues, on synthroid 125
- on lexapro for anxiety, 15mg 
- workout 7 days a week hot power vinyasa yoga
- weight routine 2x a week

I cannot control my weight without a glp. I microdose and take the lowest dose for 1 year. . What do you think is the main issue for me?

It's metabolic. Look into the current obesity science on the body's set point. People think this means "oh, my body has a set point of 170, that is where it wants to be," but that's not really it -- it's more that everyone's body has a healthy set point for weight but with obesity the body is confused and thinks it is far under that set point, even if obese, and it will signal you, with all the hormonal power it has, to search out food at all costs, especially cal dense food. And it will hold on to fat.

So yeah, you can't control it without the medication addressing that. Or at least it is profoundly difficult. People can do it for a while. Even a year or more. But not forever. Which is why maintaining is next to impossible. Eventually your body, which is screaming that you are starving, wins. [/quote]
