Would you take losing 1lb a week for the next 44 weeks? That what I did :-)

My first 3D body scan was done at the end of April 2024 — but I took my first dose of Tirzepatide on March 29th, a month earlier. That gap has always bothered me because the scans don't capture the full journey.


Fortunately, thanks to our Renpho smart scale, I have all the data from day one. And I'm sharing it below as an example of one patient's journey on these medications — mine.


March 29, 2024 to now: 44 weeks, roughly a pound a week, every week, on average.


Now here's the question I pose in the title, and I mean it seriously: if someone had offered me at the start — "you'll lose about a pound a week for 44 weeks" — would I have taken it? The impatient version of me, the one who wanted 5-lb weeks and dramatic before-photos by summer? He might have hesitated.


The wiser version knows better. One pound a week is not slow. It's SUSTAINABLE. It's the pace where muscle survives, skin adapts, habits form, and the loss actually sticks. The dramatic 10-lb weeks you see on the internet are usually water, muscle, and a regain waiting to happen.


44 weeks later, the math speaks for itself: 40+ pounds gone, kept off, and a body that feels like it belongs to me again.


Slow is not the enemy. Slow is the strategy. Trust the process.
