Wanted to celebrate a win. I did my first ever lifting exercise yesterday! Small win but gotta start somewhere I suppose. Anyway super pumped. Ever since I started glp1s I feel like my body wants to work with me rather than against me. I mean that before I had no desire to exercise. In fact I dreaded the idea. Now? I actually am looking forward to it. Now the soreness on day two is not fun but looking forward to getting back at it tomorrow for my second work out.

So I’ve never been a gym rat by any stretch lol. So I don’t know a lot about how to lift weights well. Do any of you have any apps or anything that could help me succeed? I don’t have a ton of money to throw at it but I would like any info you might have.

I have never been physically fit. Even as a kid I was much larger than everyone else. What I didn’t realize then and really didn’t realize until I started glp-1s was just how much food controlled me even when I actively fought against it. But when I saw that I was 300lbs I knew enough was enough. I’m now down to 283 and working to 190. I want to be in a shape that will allow me to be alive to watch my future kids grow up. On a small win I recently was able to play and rough house with my nephews 4 and 3 and didn’t need to rest but every 10 or so minutes. Before now almost any playing would wipe me out. Small victory but one that means the world to me.
