Thank you for the shoutout & support. Also, thank you for joining the livestreams! I love to get your feedback and hear your perspective! You keep us informed on the compounds as well! You look beautiful & you will be down 50lbs! You’ve got this🏃🏽♀️➡️🥰🎯🙏🏽🤩
Hey! Thank you for the shoutout! Glad that you enjoyed the vacation! Great job hiking!!!! Yes! It is definitely doable! 50 pounds here you come!!!! 😊 I also just ordered from Mochi! 😉
Great work on your journey! I am new to Turtle. Older, slower, and have been dealing with weight loss for decades. Your information is on point, welcomed, and appreciated. I have been on Ozempic for diabetes control for the last two years and have seen a slow, progressive loss of about 50 lbs. But the best thing I have seen is more energy, and better health in terms of my heart, kidney, liver, and bones. I don't work out much, but have started elliptical under my desk for circulation with muscle work attached. A beautiful Christmas gift from someone who cares. Much Love, Ellie
MOM!!! No you didn't drop into that chat and pretend we don't know each other lol! OMG you are too funny! EVERYONE knows about you bc I talk about you and Val all the time! Love you so MUCH and glad the under the desk Elliptical I got you is working for you! You are my BEST and favorite motivation to get healthy♥️ Love love love you!
Hey Sis, it’s ok! The holiday’s are tough. Then you were on vacation. Just get back to it. Honestly, it feels good to take a break. I normally do the same during August, my birthday month.
Alright, Sweet Tea!!! I’m excited for the non scale victory of hiking!!🥾 Hiking in beautiful Hawaii no less!!👀👀🎉🎉🎉👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🥳🥳🥳🥳 Girl, that is awesome! You only gained three pounds, and that’s amazing!! We are so hard on ourselves. I get it!! However I’m here to help celebrate those non scale victories!! The scale is the devil 😈anyway!!🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for sharing, as always!💜💜💜💜
Yes Lady! the scale is the devil lol! I think breaks are needed but I'm back at it and working hard like everyone else this month. Appreciate the encouragement!
this is my first time with Mochi and it was an awesome experience! Great provider call and I was able to get it all done same day! Ive got a $40 discount code in my video notes if you need it! Every penny helps.
I think stocking up is a great idea too Rania. Sweet Tea, please get your meds because I've heard some scary things and I just want my compound friends to be fine. Is it possible to get stock from multiple compound pharmacies. If so, I would recommend doing that if possible.
Im super grateful for the support. Some weeks I struggle to just get out One video lol! Its a juggle but I love this community and I need the accountability!
@@TheTurtleDiaries I can totally relate. I don’t realize how much I’m doing or not doing until I see my weekly recaps. Go at your own pace. We will understand! Keep up the great work! I enjoy watching your videos🤩🥰
Happy New Year! And I’m a new Subbie. I’ve been on Zepbound for almost 3 months as of Friday. I’ve only lost 12 pounds so far. So nice to see someone else not losing as fast. I thought it was just me because I see everyone else on the YT platform losing that in 1 month. But I’m ready for the new year as I have 75 more pounds to lose.
@@teerichardson3360 hey remember slow and steady wins the race! I can’t believe how much better I feel and I still have at least another 30-40lbs to lose. Take your time and check out my last video - has some great information for anyone just starting on the journey!! So glad to have you here!!! 🎉
Glad you had an amazing vacation! Give yourself some grace 💖 you’ll be back down in no time! 🤗the important thing is you enjoyed yourself and made incredible memories! Those views are absolutely breath taking 😍♥️
Hey Sweet Tea! I’m impressed that you went on a hike. You are doing a great job! Not to think about needing a seatbelt extender is a great non scale victory. 42.2 lbs is awesome! Don’t let it discourage you. You will take it off! Give yourself grace!❤️🥰😇🙏🏽
Thank you for your real feedback! I have also been on vacation for the past three weeks and I will not be back home for another week. Not sure what the scale is going to show me when I get back 😅 I must say that I have definitely enjoyed my holidays with my family and my time of relaxation 😉
Enjoy every moment and don't stress the scale! We have to do what feels good. You are SO fabulous and I really enjoy your videos! Im sure you will slay whatever the scale says!
Oh Sweet Tea...don't be hard on yourself. 3lbs on vacation is a norm. It is really water weight and the inflamation from your long travel. You look amazing and your success with the seatbelt is definitely a NSV. I felt the same way when I traveled to Vegas for Christmas. You can do this and you absolutely will. 🥰
I’m definitely a turtle 🐢 when it comes to weight loss. Ten years to get off 203 pounds. I agree I think these meds are healing the inside. Hormonal balance maybe. I’m just thrilled. Seat belts fitting is amazing. 😂 Sometimes we need a little break from all the things. It’s all about getting right back to it. You’re beautiful lovely lady. The fact we know we’re not giving up like diets before. Great video. ❤🎉❤
The most important thing about this trip is that you had an incredible time... I mean... Beautiful views sightseeing, hiking, etc; food/fun/sharing/laughter with your loved ones; and relaxation, etc. are all priceless memories that will last. Those 2-3lbs are mynute compared; as they will come back off now that you are back; and, will be putting to practice the things you know to do, to get the scale moving back downward. I have no doubt, you can/will do just that! You've Got This! ❤🎉
Welcome back!! So good to see you and I’m glad you’re not affected by the wild fires like my sister is but we are praying 🙏🏼. I believe you did awesome to go on a beautiful vacation and only gain three lbs to me is great bc honestly this is a journey and you will or have gotten back on track and that’s the best part of the journey. Blessings to you
Oh no! Praying for your sis, yes its crazy here. We have to stay inside bc the smoke is so thick and I have friends who have to evacuate. Im praying for RAIN! Thx for the encouragement..needing it!
Honestly, I was intimidated to move up but on 10mg my portion control was completely gone and i was in a weight stall for 5 weeks! Ive been on 12.5 now for 8 weeks! As soon as I moved up I went back to eating smaller meals and felt more in control. The scale started moving again and feeling good now. My only struggle has been managing constipation but its been good. Hoping to stay here for a while! What dose are you on currently?
@ Hi, Friday I will complete my first week on 12.5. I was on 10mg about 2.5 months. It was fine until I started to hear food noise again. 12.5 has been fine. I only had side effects the first two weeks on 2.5. I feel so much better. No longer prediabetic: a1c normal; glucose normal. Bp in normal range.
Right there with ya, ladies. Am 2+ months in on my current tour of 10mg (was there once before, but had to come back down to 7.5 for a bit). It’s been decent, but the weight-loss is definitely slow at the moment, even for being this deep into my journey (have lost almost 25 percent of bodyweight at this point). So, will be moving up to 12.5 in February. Should work well… and I wish all three of us luck there. 😊 1️⃣2️⃣.5️⃣
Awwwwww we’re family too. You missed us ❤❤❤ I feel the love❤❤❤
I’m so glad you had a great time on vacation and your birthday!! 3 pounds for all that fun is amazing! You are doing a great job!! ❤
I appreciate the encouragement! Its time to get serious and get back to basics :)
