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.
The bit I cannot resolve on my own is what people did about re-titration, because feeling better is not the same as a study saying you are better.
Tell me what I have not thought of.

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 25 to 6). Better oxygenation at night = better sleep quality = more energy during the day. It's a virtuous cycle.

Month 13 update on sleep apnoea: down 25 lbs from my starting weight of 260 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. 🙌

This matches mine closely enough to be worth saying so out loud.
Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. Take it one variable at a time. Almost every unanswerable question in these threads is unanswerable because three things changed in the same fortnight, and no amount of subsequent argument can untangle them after the fact.
