Looking to lose about 50lbs in 4 months. I think that is doable as long as I keep up with cardio and weight lifting. Need to figure out how to get more protein though (will likely start shakes)

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48780886)

50lbs in four months is aggressive, but I have done something similar before.

Brother. . .you're fat as shit. No man 6'1 or under should be 249.

Embrace the semaglutide and be grateful for modern medicine.

No idiot. GLP1's don't make you keep up with cardio and weight lifting. They make you eat less. That's the fucking key.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48780922)

Keeping up with exercise as the GLPI-1 make you eat less is a way to accelerate the weight loss

I have worked out consistently since high school, so just a lot of calories. Some people like to eat. Also I carry weight pretty well, so people are always surprised when they hear the actual lbs

FWIW, at weights from 210 to 225 are when I actively get hit on by women, if that is any indicator

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48781103)

Lemme stop ya right there, hoss.

Your clothing hides your weight pretty well.

When you look in the mirror, you see the protruding belly and saggy bitchtits.

1) I have noticed more dizziness on a day to day basis. I did leg day in the gym - ended up getting up to 5x265. Also added kettlebell goblet squat, leg press (600+ lb), etc. I almost fainted in the gym several times

2) 5MG makes it even harder to eat carbs. I am also noticing it is harder to drink alcohol - particularly beer.

3) probably eating about 1,000 to 1,500 calories a day. Today, I had a 200 calorie smoothie, about to have a 300-400 calorie omelette, finishing up with chicken breast and asparagus for dinner

4) I met my tailor earlier this week - she confirmed I lost several inches in my chest and waist.

I expect to be close to 230 by mid May, and close to 220 by mid June.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48882837)

2. I also lost the desire to drink once back on the shots. Even when I do drink, I can't finish the entire glass.

3. Has your desire to gobble cock increased much?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48882854)

So your desire to slobber on a thick veiny hard one is low, but it's not 0%?

Is that right?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48882878)

For me - if I cut down on wine and drinks with dinner permanently, there is a possibility I could get off of them and stay off. But I have lost weight before and gained it back, so it will likely be a life long struggle

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48882968)

The most surprising thing to me is that I have been able to continue to increase my lifts as I have been losing weight. Not sure how long that will last. This past week I benched 225x6 and squatted 275x8. Neither are my one rep max right now or anything, but I have been able to continue to push my weights as I lose weight.

Hopefully, I as cross 225 lbs on the downside in bodyweight, I can hit 225x8 on the bench.

Never really had any GI issues besides some constipation early. That has gone away though. No nasea or anything.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48916316)

has it reduced your desire to drink as well?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48916323)

The dizziness is probably related to blood sugar and blood pressure rather than hydration

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48916333)

Almost fainted in the gym today, but still put up big weight on the incline bench press. Dizziness is likely related to low blood pressure - I have consistently been in the 100- 105 / 60 - 70 range on my home cuff recently

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48937160)

Took second shot of next dose yesterday. Appetite suppression is getting stronger

Squatted 8x305 today. I will squat three plates next week - not sure the last time I have done that.

Meeting with trainer on Saturday - thinking about purchasing 10 sessions to supercharge weight loss in June

Won’t weigh in again until Monday, but feel like I have lost a few lbs since last post

These are truly wonder drugs

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48969961)

1) Got blood work - massive improvement over three months in blood sugar, red blood cells, cholesterol

2) Saw cardiologist, she was super happy with progress, especially blood pressure

Going up in dose in a couple of weeks. Also my lifts have gotten hugely better.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#48995386)

any loss of motivation or risk taking?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49015005)

if it was just eliminating compulsive behaviors that is fine. if it is eliminating risk taking i'd worry.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49015017)

Three month checkup with doc tomorrow. Will ask her next steps and pacing. My original 50 lbs in 4 months goal is squarely achievable with another 10-15 lbs by the end of July.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49032731)

Some other lifts (like lats and shoulders) seem to have remained the same or improved. I’m doing a full body set tomorrow without my trainer so I will see how much I can lift

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49076076)

The tailored clothing I bought when I was around 240 generally still fits, but loose. Many of my suits are now too big. Will get some recut. I now realize that I bought nice made to measure suits when I was ~275 to make myself feel better. Wasted tens of thousands of dollars. Never again. Off the rack now works and is cheaper (even nice brands).

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49084098)

I had a girl that used to make MTM suits for me - I told her no more until I hit my goal weight (she is pissed off, lol). I think when I am back in the market I will look for the Saks sales - they have a couple of times a year when you can buy Zegna and similar suits for big discounts.

Today I did face pulls, lat pulldown, a bunch of rows, flys, curls, abs work, and hit the erg

Onederland (199 or less) is in reach by the end of August.

Also - starting to build back up squats, deadlifts and bench press after dropping a bit due to weight loss. I hope to get back up to 5x225 on the bench - but by that time, I will be ~195 pounds, instead of doing it at ~265-270 pounds.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49152928)

What's better is that I am gaining muscle again - thanks to my trainer, and also due to the fact my caloric deficit has gotten smaller (as I have dropped weight, my calorie needs have declined, so more calories/protein can go to preserving and building muscle and strength).

Back, biceps, arms are starting to pop out. I can notice the slightest appearance of abs as well. In 10-15 pounds, I will have visible abs for the first time in my life. Will try to make sure that happens with more core work. My immediate goal is 199 or less by the time I have a doctors appointment at the end of this month.

Dudes earlier in this thread were saying 185 could't be achieved. I can easily hit that by Thanksgiving, about a month earlier than my original goal. Question is do I want to hit it. I think I will slow the lb loss down and focus on building muscle in the 190s.

- I work out hard 25-27 times a month, which has obviously helped everything. Trainers have commented on increased cardio endurance and performance in my workouts for example. Being lighter helps, but GLP1 s don’t push you harder in the gym - you have to do that yourself

For those significantly overweight or obese - the combination of a GLP-1 and hard exercise seems to be the best option

The first step is going to your doctor and asking for the prescription. The second step is figuring out your diet. The third step is getting into the gym. Doing all that, and the weight drops and the muscle pops

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5699574&forum_id=2/en-en/#49230532)

Step 1 helps with diet. It also helps with stuff like insulin resistance and allegedly makes fat cells more active, but for me, it mainly just makes it easier to lock the diet in.

I look better than ever - starting to see a six pack after some gym days. Getting more and more comments on weight loss. I am still on the 10mg dose, and I will tighten up the diet a bit to get to below 200lbs over the next couple of weeks. Looking forward to seeing under 199 on the scale.
