fivethirty :
listen, I didn't have any diagnosis of lipodema but I did have high hereditary cholesterol and, I went through a probably 3-4 month plateau on a glp1, where the scale did not move. during that time, I had already lost about 65lbs... I would become aware of like, balls of fat, multiple, in areas like around my thighs, and specifically anywhere there was a crease, so legs meeting torso, etc. almost daily for whatever reason I would be itchy in a spot, and I would feel one of these balls that kind of varied in size and we're across many spots on my body... I would feel for it a few days later and it was gone. this went on for about 3 ish months, and now they're gone and I'm almost 90lbs down. there are a few spots where I still have some, that I believe likely are lipodema, but I feel like this glp1 is going to handle it so I'm not worried.
