The appetite suppression drop at 5mg is real and common - a lot of people notice it a few weeks into a dose. Holding and giving it more time often works before jumping to 7.5mg.

The click moment is real - the months before it feel like doubt but the months after it feel like momentum.

V2 pen accuracy is better than V1. The premixed 6x scenario is a different format issue - draw consistency per shot is the practical accuracy test.

i get that testing shows what's in the vial, same as brand stuff. but does anyone get better results from one vendor vs another at the same mg? like some vendors just don't hit right even if the testing checks out?

been on it 1.5 years, down 60. stuck with 1mg compounded. then had surgery and took 2 weeks off. restarted and it's just not the same appetite-wise. thinking maybe higher dose or try something else.

don't mix your peps with plain sterile water or saline. those have maybe 28 days shelf life on their own, but way less when you're pulling from them multiple times. BAC is there for a reason—stops bacteria and fungi growing. just be safe about it.

That's an amazing reduction in your A1c! Congratulations! That must feel fantastic and gives me hope!

I'm tapering off Wegovy after about 10 months and 95lbs down. Hoping to be completely off by summer and not gain it all back 🙏. It's scary!

You look wonderful! Did you begin with a .25 or .5 dose?

I'm working on stockpiling a lifetime supply of tirz... for doomsday research =P

Bravo! What awesome progress! It's gotta feel great too!

The weight-loss curve from diet and exercise alone is probably even steeper. Imagine where this curve would be if insurance didn't cut everyone off...

Trim_BTW No, I didn't use any of those. My surgery was before they were really a thing, I think?

Going through menopause really threw me for a loop. I went from about 130 to almost 220 in just a few years. It was awful when I saw that number on the scale at the doctor's office. I had a really hard time with eating in high school and college, always worrying about weight. That kinda stopped...

You look amazing! Well done!
