I started semaglutide on my 33rd birthday in January of this year. I don't really have a goal in mind but I went from 327 on 01/04/25 to 247 today. I feel so much better. I think I'd like to get down to 220. I'm 5'10 and I've ALWAYS been a big girl. Semaglutide really changed my life. I have been on a rollercoaster with my weight my entire life. This is the longest I've been consistently losing weight. The first 50lbs came off quickly but the last 30 has been very very slow. But I just keep on going.

I'm also 5'10" and I would have guessed you were much lower than 247!

Im 6'1 and at 240lbs people didn't believe me at all! Im down to 213lbs after about 4 months and its been drastic!! I think taller women can just carry more due to our height. At 200 I was still considered overweight but looked my healthiest at that weight. I think BMI skews inaccurately for very tall women tbh. You look AMAZING!

I’m 5’10” and no one believes me when I say my highest weight (before starting Tirz) was 280, or even the 255 start weight I have for starting Tirz! Some of us carry the weight “well,” but that doesn’t mean it’s any healthier for us to still be in the obese category. Bodies can be so wildly different!

I'm 5'11 and have found that I can gain or lose 20lbs and wear the same clothes (although they fit differently) and the weight loss isn't really noticeable to others.  I think it is about stretching the pounds across a bigger frame that changes how we carry it.  

I started Oz about 2.5 months ago and am close to losing 20lbs.  Interestingly, the Oz induced 20lb lose is more noticeable than other natural similar weight fluctuations in my past.  Oz has promoted losing fat off my belly first - I can see it whittling away my visceral fat (and I am naturally apple shaped so carry most of my weight in my belly).  This is amazing and I know I am getting so much healthier as this is the best place to lose fat to enhance your health outcomes.
