OP here I will say one last thing before I do my best to not respond to the troll and Anorexic posts.

I find damaging and surprising that so many of you refuse to understand that your own body and your own understanding of what a specific weight looks like is not the absolute perfect norm.

I trust people who say at the same height and at same weight- Let’s say 5’5” and 130 pounds which seems to be a point that triggers a lot of debates both ways on this site - that they either feel perfect, or too thin or want to lose 10 pounds. Bodies are different and people carry their weight differently. Not everyone has body image distortion if they don’t fit your norm.

I am not white, when I say my bone structure is very thin, I mean it is out of your norm thin.  I need custom Rings or bracelets as regular size are too big (I could gain 30 pounds that wouldn’t change).

If you want a metric you can understand: my body fat percentage is 34%. I am absolutely not a stick and bone person. [/quote]

OP. I am Asian who is skinny-fat. I posted above - the answer is to lift heavy weights and modify your diet to gain muscle, not take a GLP. You honestly sound insane that you *refuse* to see the issue. [/quote]

Except, she [i]is[/i] going to do these things. She's not "refusing" to see anything, she's going to run the experiment and see for herself. That's the whole point of this thread, she's going to try the "old-fashioned" way and see what happens. You people are attacking her simply to attack. [/quote]

For a month. That’s the plan. And if that doesn’t work, OP plans to give up. Which is monumentally stupid. [/quote]

Do you really think that if it works for say a 75% improvement and is OP is 2 pounds away from her goal weight at the one month point she's just going to throw in the towel and use the GLP-1 instead of continuing what she has found success in? Really?

OP here, you are 100% correct. I want to see some results in a month (if I follow my planned routine, if I slack it doesn’t count and my experiment is not completed). I don’t mean that I need to achieve all my goals in a month.

I also realize that the way I worded my last sentence in my first post was too strong. I was setting a specific goal for myself in terms of weight loss and basically said “if I don’t get that I will move on with GLP 1” which is not where my mind currently is.

First if I feel like I got stronger and less bloated and fit in my pants, it won’t matter if my weight is actually lower. I will still feel I succeeded. Second, if I follow my plan and still fail to see results, I will probably not take a decision right then and there and conclude that a GLP 1 is the only option left for me personally if I want results. But it would be an unpleasant lesson that would cause me to reassess my hypothesis.

Right now my hypothesis is that”I know what I need to do. My problem is the discipline to apply it consistently”. There are several conclusions I can take in a month if I manage to be disciplined and don’t see results (including that my diet and exercise plan is the wrong one). [/quote]
