If it was, the price would have actually skyrocketed (even more) with all the supply chain issues the last couple of years.

COVID was disproportionately harmful to the overweight population, that might account for part of the drop.

you ate the exact same amount of calories and lost 32 pounds?

or are you just ignoring the effect an appetite suppressant has on how many calories you consume a day?

I remember being super disappointed in my father for trying to quit smoking and using Nicoderm patches.

I am all for it if it makes people healthy. I have been battling to lose about 40 pounds and while i have thought about taking the easy way out I would rather just do it the right way and keep it off for good.

Average. Probably worth noting he's an a-hole for 90 different more pressing reasons...this kinda just ices the cake.

FWIW while we're not close im happy he found a way to lose the weight for his sake, but just be honest about it.

Lol cool. Read my ETA.... he's not. He barley came to my kids party and when he was there it was to flex on his weightloss. Last time he saw his grandson before that? Probably over a year despite being in the area. He was also morbidly obese and not present during my childhood and teen years...started spending time when I got old enough to be a drinking buddy.

Again....glad he got healthy... but it's ok to call people who act an arse an arse.

ETA: totally get why downvotws are coming.... but this is a small example of how he's an arse. Me and him aren't close because he basically chose to disappear during my childhood and even now spends time or demands my attention when continent for him. He flexes... he flexes his money usually and currently flexing his weightloss.

He showed up to my sons bday party for a very brief amount of time basically to drop off clothes he couldn't wear anymore... that were huge for me. Worth noting after all his weightloss he probably still weighs more than me.

He spent most of his short time making conversation w my family and if they didn't mention his weightloss he would bring it up in 2 seconds or less. We could be talking about HOAs and he wpuld somehow find a way to say...ya know since I lost weight....

Good for him losing weight... but he's turned it into an annoying flex... and for the purpose of this thread refuses to be honest about how he lost it


I think you might want to talk to a therapist baw

Happens with every other "get skinny quick" scheme.

Those not changing habits and diets are doomed to be obese.
