So thrilled for you! That's genuinely up there among the biggest milestones this whole journey has to offer. Congratulations, take a moment to celebrate, you've absolutely earned it.

The combination of weight coming down and consistent core work is when muscle definition starts showing up - the muscle was underneath all along, the visibility is a function of fat loss. More loss plus consistent work is exactly the right prescription.

365 and going up every month to 15mg is the fast titration approach. Whether stopping at 11% is the right move usually comes down to what the underlying goals are. If it's weight loss you could keep going, but there's something to be said for consolidating and holding too.

The T2D appetite rebound on day 2 is a real signal - some people with T2D find the appetite suppression less consistent at doses that work well for weight loss in non-diabetics. 15mg for 6 months with flat weight but good glucose control is actually a split outcome. Have you and your doctor...

6 months on Ozempic with minimal weight loss going to highest dose and then trying Mounjaro is exactly the right call when lipedema is part of the picture. The GLP-1 mechanism does not work the same on lipedema fat tissue and tirz at least adds the GIP angle. Hope the Mounjaro delivers something...

Alcohol going down dramatically since Tirz is the more common one but caffeine tracking the same direction is not unheard of. The reward pathway effect that quiets food noise seems to extend to other substances for some people. The OP not missing their morning coffee is the mild end of that...

The lab freezer upgrade path is worth thinking about once the collection gets to the point where a household freezer is sharing space with actual food - temperature stability and the ability to organize by compound with consistent access is where the lab-grade option pays for itself.

30 lbs in 2 months while energy was down and not feeling like doing anything is the medication doing what it does before the body adjusts. The OP at 1mg for a month with the question about not exercising - 30 lbs in that window is possible without structured exercise, the activity level just...

35 lbs in 4 months the first time and then returning to find it worked differently is the tolerance reset story playing out. The break doesn't always reset the receptor sensitivity the way people expect. 14 months with a small break and 20 lbs is the version where the second run is genuinely...

6 weeks at .25 then to .5 and the 3-consecutive-bad-days rule for dose increases is a really practical protocol. Saves money and gives you actual data instead of just pushing on a schedule. PCOS making the low dose work this well is the kind of outcome that gets dismissed in general discussions.

Got diagnosed with that anhedonia thing too. My doc didn't realize I'd been on semaglutide until I mentioned it at an appointment, then everything clicked into place. Rough year dealing with it.

on 5mg for 2 months now, nausea kicking in the past couple weeks especially around meals but also throughout the day. anyone else hit this at the 3-month mark? did it pass or did you change something?

Cat jokes aside, going from size 42 to 32 feels wild. Punched new belt holes today. Amazing feeling!

I've been careful with my dosing—listening to how my body reacts with things like heart rate, sleep, and real appetite. Wasn't gonna push it if it was beating me up. Ended up going faster and higher than the standard protocol. My lean mass has stayed pretty solid through it all.

For me Pepto barely did anything. What actually worked was cutting the eggs+coffee combo and switching to oatmeal mornings. Also the simethicone (Gas-X) is underrated for the bloated feeling even when it doesn't kill the smell.
