New here- Starting my journey

Hey everyone

I’m starting my retatrutide journey next week, and honestly… I’m really excited.

I’m 22, 5’6 & 255lbs. I have PCOS, and I’ve struggled with my weight for a long time. I feel like I haven’t really gotten the chance to fully live the way I want to. I’ve always been the bigger girl, the quiet girl, the one who tried to hide and take up less space. I don’t want to keep living like that.

I know weight loss isn’t just about a number on the scale, but for me this feels like taking a step toward finally putting myself first and becoming the person I’ve always wanted to be.

I’ve done a lot of research, and I’m going into this with the mindset of building better habits too focusing on protein, moving my body, lifting weights, and taking care of myself. I don’t want to just lose weight; I want to feel stronger and healthier.

I’ll be starting at 0.5 because I want to ease into it and see how my body responds instead of rushing.

I’d love to hear from anyone else who has started this journey, especially anyone with PCOS or anyone who started around a similar age/weight. Any advice, things you wish you knew, or encouragement would be appreciated 💗
