Weight loss support thread

I haven't updated in a while, so here goes: I just took my 4th shot of tirzepatide 7.5mg, so that means I've completed 11 weeks and am going into week 12. I was 155.6 lbs on Day 1 (Feb 11) which was actually a bit of a loss from my peak, cuz I'd had some dental work and was on soft foods. So BMI of 29.4.
Today I was 139.8, BMI 26.4. 120 is my goal, and 132 will get me to "normal" BMI 24,9.
My weight loss has held pretty steady at 1.4 lb/week, which disappointed me at first (especially cuz I've never eaten more than 1k calories in a day all this time!), but I've accepted that this is just my rate, and if I was more active I'd lose more. But I'm an old bat and I don't want to have too much loose skin, which seems to be OK right now.
I've been keeping my protein intake up by drinking a 30g protein shake am and pm so I don't lose what little muscle I have LOL.
I *was* subscribed to Factor meals and was eating them in 2 halves, lunch and dinner. But I stopped because I'm currently really turned off by saucy or highly seasoned food (ordinarily I *really* liked the Factor Mediterranean choices).
Anyway, if I keep losing the way I have been, I'll be at goal by mid-August. I haven't tried on any of my "skinny" clothes gathering dust in the closet yet, but I'm so much more comfortable moving around in my own body.
 
I got oneshotted by COVID lockdowns and gained 60 pounds since then. Before that I'd successfully lost 30lb and hit a healthy weight before gaining it all back and more over the years after getting way too complacent with spending a shit ton of money eating takeout slop, which was retarded of me since I'm perfectly capable of cooking actual unprocessed healthy food for myself.
I'm trying to move towards a more sustainable poorfag life right now and working on my budgeting and spending so I figure now's as good a time as any to start losing weight again. Wish me luck bros
