I was on CPAP before starting and my most recent study came back changed enough that the conversation about it is now a different conversation.

Month 6 update on sleep apnoea: down 48 lbs from my starting weight of 253 lbs. Here's what's changed beyond the scale:

• No longer pre-diabetic (A1C normalized)
• Off blood pressure medication
• Can tie my shoes without getting winded
• Sleep apnea resolved — returned my CPAP
• Confidence level: through the roof

This medication has genuinely given me my life back. I'm not exaggerating. 🙌

Sleep changes on sleep apnoea: anyone else sleeping differently? I've been sleeping worse since starting week 3.

My theory: the weight loss has improved my sleep apnea (confirmed by recent sleep study — AHI dropped from 26 to 7). Better oxygenation at night = better sleep quality = more energy during the day. It's a virtuous cycle.

Can confirm. Same sequence, different timescale. I had assumed I was the exception until I read this.

Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. The version of this that has an answer is narrower than the version being asked. Narrow it and it becomes tractable; leave it broad and the thread will produce nine confident and incompatible replies.
