Fat Removal Thread

So, I needed to get rid of some lockdown weight - actually quite a chunk of lockdown weight.

Dietician wanted me to go on Ozempic but its not registered here yet so she put me on Saxenda injections (liraglutide). It worked fantastic for about 4 weeks as the doses increased. I had almost no appetite. Just looking at food made me feel sick. Dropped 8KG in a month.

But then it started wavering a bit almost like my body got used to it. And i got hungry of note. She kept saying its mind over matter because Saxenda should work for years, but it just didn't. Finally I stopped it because at R5000pm excl visits I just felt like it was not working.

That said, i've heard others have had success with it. One thing that is my problem is I travel A LOT for work. So almost 60% of my meals in a month are eaten out of the house. When i'm at home i'm not bothered to make food so then its Uber eats....

IF is one idea but then which way do i do it? If I skip dinner i'm stuck taking clients out and they're eating while i watch them with a glass of water and they think i'm insane. If I skip breakfast most hotels its already paid-for so i'm wasting a paid meal and buying another one at 12h00... Dunno which way to do this lol.

I lose weight when I travel, as it is easier to eat right provided you avoid junk food/fast foods since the work is paying i.e. instead of pasta have a steak and some vegs, instead of burger and chips, a chicken wrap is better.

Some simple rules and you wont gain.

Since this thread started I have lost 5kgs. Running and weights.

If hotels offered free massages and you didn't like being touched would you force yourself to get it because you're 'wasting it' if you don't? You're not wasting a meal - you're saying no to something you don't want.
 
I mostly don't eat during the day but I have decided to add healthy meals like a salad , beans, oats, legumes etc.
Big difference in bowel movement.

Big Pharma Is Fooling You Again, and You Don't Even Know It - Tucker Carlson​

Big pharma fooled no one. When I was on Saxenda the inserts disclosed everything including a risk of cancers and some other health issues. But because the risk is not high we accept it.

You know if you walk outside your house tomorrow you could be in a car accident. But you still go, because the actual risk is low. You don’t accuse car manufacturers of lying to you that you won’t immediately die in an accident..

Some of these work very well. But if you’re worried about the risks try something else. Blaming big pharma is just a bandwagon people like to climb on to feel special and anti established order because psychologically it gives them something to be part of that’s not mainstream.
