Wait, isn't a 2.5mg pen supposed to only hold four shots total? How do you still have four left? Doesn't that mean the pen was never touched?

The sleeve plus GLP-1 tends to amplify hunger reduction - the two mechanisms compound. At starter dose the appetite shift is real, just quieter than at therapeutic level.

Trial titration schedules are built for population averages. Week 5 at 4mg is aggressive. Most people land somewhere between the study protocol and their own ceiling.

Using the BMI break point as a milestone is practical. The Obese to Overweight shift is a clinical threshold that also changes how healthcare providers engage. The next marker worth targeting is the Normal boundary - the gap between Overweight and Normal tells you how much runway is left.

Switched from 1.0 Ozempic to 1.7 Wegovy with 1.5 Ozempic in between for 2 weeks. Wegovy hits way harder. I was stuck at 141, dropped to 135 after one pen (down from 204 last July). Changed my eating to just salad mostly so can't really comment on side effects.

honestly i'd take this forever just for the food noise gone. having something delicious in the fridge & forgetting about it for days, then not even wanting it anymore—that's wild.

I think they bump the dose every 4 weeks to get you to high doses fast while your body adjusts. Makes sense if you look at weekly amounts. Doesn't seem like they're finding YOUR best dose though. Everyone's different. Some follow the plan, some of us do better at lower doses. My doc is supportive.

Go to Forums tab, then Announcements — cleaner navigation. This site works way better on laptop. Mobile's rough.

I'm on painkillers for a herniated disc and didn't research interactions before starting. After a week the pills stopped working for my pain. Took me days to put it together. Thankfully it cleared up 24-36 hours after I stopped. Could've been way worse.

No, I haven't. I'm still looking though. Wish there was an easier way to find them.

I paid yesterday (talking to someone named Judy). They just sent back what I ordered like they didn't get the money. I sent them a screenshot of the transaction. They haven't called me 'dear' or anything weird yet, lol.

I'm ordering epi, 5 amino 1, and thymalin. I'll ask for COAs, but most I've seen don't include those. Is there a testing group for those three things? I'd be interested.

Good experience here too.

Absolutely amazing achievement! You look fabulous!

That's like shedding an entire person and finding a brand new you. Massive congratulations! A truly impressive accomplishment. Imagine all the other amazing things you can achieve!!!
