+1. This mirrors my journey exactly. The GLP-1 and self-image discussion here is so valuable.

JakeBK_lifts said:Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 277 lbs and felt like I would tried everything
I respect JakeBK_lifts perspective but I think this oversimplifies things a bit. Re: GLP-1 and self-image — the subgroup analyses show meaningful heterogeneity.
I am not saying JakeBK_lifts wrong entirely — just that the picture is more nuanced than a blanket statement. The SURMOUNT data specifically shows baseline BMI-dependent responses.

Reading this thread on GLP-1 and self-image hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 263 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
9 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 38 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about GLP-1 and self-image — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

JenPlateau — that is really helpful context on GLP-1 and self-image . Follow-up question: did you change anything about your diet at the same time?
I am in a similar situation (month 2) and trying to set realistic expectations.
