Who would’ve thought??

I’m driving down the street & for some reason I think of chocolate cake . However , in my thoughts I was thinking “ Bleh” . “ That doesn’t sound appealing “. I literally felt NOTHING. A year ago I would’ve been obsessed over that chocolate cake . I probably would’ve watched cooking shows on different recipes of chocolate cake . Until the weekend when I could binge . Who am I ? Tirzepatide has changed my life . This happen to anyone else ?

Makes me wannaaaaaaa…….

Isn’t it amazing how when you start loosing weight . It makes you wanna put on some makeup , do your hair , put on nicer clothes. Does anyone else feel this way ? It’s all because of tirzepatide. I started in March . As long as I was showered . I could care less how I looked . As the weight started coming off . I started caring . I wanted to look & feel my best . Can anyone else relate ????

I feel good … I knew that I would … I feel nice …..

This is my 2nd holiday on tirzepatide. My first was on 4th of July . Started in March . I used to binge on weekends & holidays . I hope all of you on this journey are feeling the same I am . Relief !!! Tirzepatide was the only thing that could break the cycle of eating “healthy “ during the week . Binging on weekends & holidays . Anyone else feel this relief on holidays ? Anyone else who used to binge on holidays?

How were you a year ago ?

What was life like for you a year ago around this time ? I hadn’t started tirzepatide yet . I was going to the gym 6 days a week for 2 1/2 hours . I’d be on the stair master the entire time . I’d eat “ healthy “ during the week . Binge on weekends & holidays . I was hiding behind baggy clothes . Food noise was loud !! During the week I’d watch cooking shows . That in some weird way satisfied me until the weekend when I could binge . Started tirzepatide in March . Life is completely different. You ?

Sundays

I used to dread Sundays . It meant my binge was over . I’d get so sad . I started tirzepatide in March . Before that I was on a vicious cycle of eating “ healthy” during the week . “ Rewarding “ myself & binging on the weekends . I would get so excited every Friday . Count down the days . On Sundays I would get sad because my binge would be over . Monday id have to be “healthy “ again . Since starting tirzepatide this cycle has stopped . No more binging on the weekends. Now I don’t get sad on Sundays anymore . Holidays were the same . Binge during the holidays & get sad when it was over . Anyone else like this ?

Lurkers….

If you’re on this page wondering if tirzepatide is for you . Read this !!! I started in March . I was frustrated, tired & had enough . I was fit all my life . When I turned 40 that’s when things started getting hard . I’ve always worked out . I was spending hours in the gym . Couldn’t loose weight . I would eat healthy during the week & “ reward” myself & binge on the weekends & holidays . The food noise was TURNED ALL THE WAY UP . Tirzepatide has completely changed my life . I no longer feel shame & guilt . The dysfunctional cycle of “ reward” & binge has stopped . McDonald’s & I broke up . I no longer crave , want greasy , sugary foods . Whatever excuse you have throw it in the trash . Afraid of needles ? So am I . Feels like an ant bite . Afraid of what it does ? Do your research. I’m shouting from the mountain tops CHOOSE YOU . The time is going to pass anyway , so do what you want .

The mental aspect

Started tirzepatide in March . That same day the “ food noise “ stopped . The peace & mental relief that came from not thinking about FOOD ALL THE TIME . As the weight started coming off the shame started going away . The shame I hid behind big baggy clothes . The shame of “ diet/ exercise “ not working . The cycle of binging on the weekends & holidays & the shame that came with it . Tirzepatide is deeper than “ a weight loss drug “ for me . Is this the same for anyone else ?

When did you know ?

When did you know , it was time to do something about your weight ? For me , I was tired . Tired of wearing baggy clothes . Tired of feeling shame of how much weight I had gained . Tired of spending hours at the gym . Tired of the binging on the weekends. In late February I said “ no more “. Started my journey in March . You ?
