The Friday start timing for avoiding work disruption is a practical protocol that many experienced users have landed on independently - having the weekend buffer for the initial adjustment window makes sense. For a 28-year-old who trains consistently, Tirz is the more conservative entry: the GIP...

The 'things I can't do anymore' list on a year-and-a-half of Mounjaro is really a list of what the medication revealed was always about biology rather than will. The portions that used to be normal are now physiologically outside range - not because of discipline, but because the satiation...

The protein and fat aversion in the first weeks is one of the most commonly reported issues that nobody warns you about - meat and eggs trigger nausea in a lot of people early on, and fat-heavy foods slow gastric emptying enough to compound the GI discomfort. The workaround that gets the most...

It's funny that there's a "how to diet" thread right next to this one. I'm alone for days or weeks a lot. It's great. I don't need exercise because my life is physically hard, every day. Outside all the time. If I didn't have any fat, it wouldn't work. One size doesn't fit all. Not even close.

Anyone who tries to tell me what to do, without me asking and without paying me, will find the conversation over very fast. The tricky part is, I often talk about what I'm doing or learning online. If it's a sensitive topic, or one people love to "teach" about, I add a note that I'm not looking...

I'm doing 500mg every other day currently.

Thanks for the info, everybody. Just mixed with 3mL, drew out 1mL, and injected. My leg was a little sore, but not as bad as I thought it would be. Thanks for the help!

I guess what I'm really asking is about the volume. Think I can mix with just 3mL? I'm reading that injecting over 1mL can be uncomfortable.

Hey guys, got some 1.5g vials that are 10mL. The seller said to mix with 5-7.5mL of BAC. I wanna hit 500mg every other day. If I use 6mL that comes out to 2mL per dose. I wanted to keep it under 1mL. Is that possible? Or will it be too thick? And can I use it sublingually if I convert the powder?

That means you're on the right track. All that extra padding is history 😀. I am usually cold 🥶 but more so if I get less beefy.

Me too. If I knew this was a side effect, I would've started this ages ago. I’m almost menopausal and live in Florida, so this summer was awful. I’ve always been warm and now I sleep in socks, sweats, and a sweater! Totally new for me as well!

You're not alone. I thought it was just me being less beefy now... but it's a strange cold, not like regular cold. I'm wearing socks inside all the time now because my feet are always freezing. I'm basically a senior citizen now.

I'm down from almost 200 to 153. Maintaining now as I ease off the meds. Ran into an old friend playing pickleball and he didnt even recognize me! Said I looked like a different person. Makes it all worth it!

Congrats on feeling roomy in a middle seat!

I flew last week and didn't need an extender for the first time in ages. Plus, I wasn't encroaching on anyone's space! Best feeling ever! 🥰
