kate.chem said:Has anyone dealt with walking is is not that straightforward in my experience
This is exactly right. kate.chem articulated what I have been trying to explain to my friends for months. The Has anyone dealt with aspect is what made the difference for me.
Reading this thread on Has anyone dealt with hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 261 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
7 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 36 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about Has anyone dealt — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
jim_asheville — that is really helpful context on Has anyone dealt with. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?
I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.
To answer DataDave's question specifically:
From a clinical standpoint, Has anyone dealt with walking is a reasonable concern that deserves a thorough answer.
The short answer: the evidence supports this approach for most patients.
The longer answer involves reviewing the specific clinical trial data relevant to your question, which I am happy to elaborate on if helpful.
