    Down 70+ lbs, still feels unreal!

    Quick update. Things have been busy. Down 10 pounds total. First three doses were 1mg every five days. Fourth dose bumped to 1.5mg. Only real side effect has been a bit more heartburn than usual. Haven't made it to the gym, but I've been doing physical outdoor work lately, landing around 12-13...

    GLP-1s + weightlifting = 💪?

    Want the tough-love pep talk or the warm fuzzy one? Personally I'm all about the harsh version, lol. What are you doing with yourself?! Hit the gym already. Eat properly. This attitude isn't getting you anywhere, LOCK IN. or... Keep going! Plateaus and rough patches are part of the deal...

    2 month update - feeling down

    The medication's doing exactly what it's designed to do. My advice would be to move forward with life, eat reasonably, and get some physical activity in.

    Considering stopping GLP-1... anyone else?

    Honestly not sure. My guess is those thoughts would creep back if I quit wegovy, meaning I'd probably end up back on an SSRI. That said, maintaining feels a lot easier than the actual losing phase did.

    CJC/IPA and Tesa/IPA - Anyone else?

    Feels like a lot of people run tesa on its own. That, or the ipa and cjc pairing, seem to be the two most common approaches.

    Anyone heard of this supplier before?

    Had to translate this. No single link - it is the usual B2B directories, Alibaba, Made-in-China, Global Sources. That is where those listings sit. Worth knowing most of what shows up there is traders, not the actual plant, so verifying is on the buyer either way.

    Anyone heard of this supplier before?

    Found a supplier through an online forum a couple years back. Located domestically, next day delivery. Sells recognizable brand name products. They've since moved over to an invite-only arrangement.

    GLP-1 online recs?

    Ended up going with a particular clinic mostly because friends pushed me toward it, ha. A few people I actually know in person tried it with solid results, so figured that was reason enough to start there. Good to know for later though, once my current supply runs low I could always try a...

    Can't do protein or fats on this stuff!

    Eh, doctor here says protein obsession gets overstated honestly, just aiming for 50g daily instead. Fiber gets the real focus, which comes easy being vegan and eating tons of produce.

    Any experience with GLP1 and addictive behaviors?

    Been hearing more about this lately, people on GLP1s reporting real shifts in other addictive behaviors too, drinking, smoking, even gambling showing up in some of these stories.

    Waking up starving on semaglutide?

    Same here, though it's not as often anymore. Loading up on fiber and protein doesn't do much for it. Usually I just grab some bread or pasta and that helps more.

    Down 56lbs since late spring '25!

    Started near your weight and same pattern - first 20 quick and then slowing to half a pound a week. Frustrating but still moving. The 56 in the OP is what staying in it through the slow phase looks like. What dose are you on?

    Too Many Injections?

    The reddit comment section direction on someone's injection frequency is exactly the kind of thing that happens when people apply generic rules to individual protocols. The OP's insurance stopping coverage and going the peptide path is a specific situation with its own logic. What was the main...

    Weight training for complete noobs?

    the 3x per week strength recommendation is solid for someone who is new to resistance training and already doing cardio - the frequency is enough to produce muscle adaptation and metabolic benefit without requiring the recovery capacity of daily training. the movement-easier-in-later-life...

    Thinner needles for IM shots?

    32g 4mm pen needles are designed for subcutaneous use - they're too short to reliably reach muscle tissue in most injection sites for intramuscular delivery. For actual IM injections, 25-27g at 1 inch is the minimum that consistently reaches muscle in typical sites.
