| god... 133kg down to 88kg, that's like a dream to me. Years of trying to get under 100 by 'traditional' calorie restriction diet & exercise. |

| One of my friends has tried many fad diets, etc. and he finally just went and paid cash for a GLP-1 and he's lost a lot of weight and is feeling much better. If I were in that situation, I would just do the same. |

| ▲ | renewiltord 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | These drugs are like psychedelics. There are lots of non users talking about them like they know them but all they did is read stuff in popular media. My friend cut usage after he lost weight and finds maintenance easy. | | |
| ▲ | twelve40 5 days ago | parent [-] | | lol well you, on the other hand, sound like the real deal! direct personal experience unlike all those posers, right? except why do you keep bringing up your friend then? This is a really stupid argument, your data point of "one friend" or even two or more friends with unspecified timeline is useless. The only thing that has any meaning is a formal study with a large number of participants over many years of observations. | | |
| ▲ | renewiltord 5 days ago | parent [-] | | Dude, it’s simple. You have already made a choice and you choose the first pop culture article that matches that and then start talking about studies this and studies that. I know it, you know it, and everyone else knows it. And I get that it’s fun but when you’re called out on it you don’t have to get upset. Ten years from now, either you will realize how comical you were being or you will still be the same. It’s better for you if it’s the former. That’s all I’m going to tell you, for your own good. |

| some fun study sort of concluded that the ratio carbs vs fat and protine is the entire mechanic. fat people who eat almost nothing eat only carbs thin people who can eat huge amounts every day eat a lot of fat and protein. Both eat other things just not as much. |

| ▲ | throwaway14356 5 days ago | parent [-] | | I really eat a lot. When my gf cooked more and the potato meat ratio changed from 1:3 to 3:1 I immediately started to grow fat. I had her adjust it to 1:1 and started eating lots of sausages and chicken legs between meals. 500g to a kg per day worth of extra food. My body fat declined rapidly. |
