LDL improvement typically lags weight and glucose changes by a few months. Four days of cardio and heavy lifting is excellent for lipid optimization - that combination improves HDL and triglycerides more than LDL alone. Fiber is the specific lever for LDL.

No side effects at 10mg is the best case outcome. The stubborn ones who eventually get convinced often have the smoothest runs because the skepticism tends to produce more careful tracking. Starting slow and titrating properly probably explains the clean experience.

The stall-then-drop pattern is almost universal once you have been on it long enough to notice it a few times. The bounce after the drop is frustrating because it looks like you regained, but it is just the equilibrium resetting. Trend direction over 2-3 weeks is the only number worth caring about.

Same! I wake up at 5am with my stomach growling! It's so annoying.

Totally normal.

It took like a month and a half before I felt anything, after I upped the dose.

I get this, so here's my story. Started Tirz maybe 6 months ago. Switched to Reta after a month. I only cared about dropping pounds for the first 3-4 months. Appetite totally suppressed. Then I started taking testosterone and hitting the gym hard like 6 weeks ago. Suddenly, I was starving even...

Just had my first injection yesterday. Hoping for some weight loss and to get my high blood pressure under control (developed after my pregnancy). Anyone else have a similar experience at the start?

I'm having the hardest time with fatigue too! Second week here, and while the appetite suppression is great, I'm so tired. Started feeling very clammy too... almost reminds me of low blood sugar. Which is weird, because I've been monitoring my glucose and it's normal. Anyone else feel like that?

I may need to try some iron! I’ve become that old lady who is always cold! All the time!! And I live in the South! It’s crazy.

You enter data in the app, like height, sex, and age etc... it uses those for calculations too

Mine glitched twice and lost all my data. 😡 It also mixes up weights sometimes. Urgh. I switched to an Arboleaf.

I'm having the same problem with my heating bill! I bought thermal underwear layers that I wear now constantly. I heard these drugs affect a receptor in our bodies that regulates temperature. So it's not just less body fat making us cold.

I got a really itchy rash at my injection site a few times now... anyone else have something like that? I was on Mounjaro almost two months for weight control and have lost nearly 16 pounds, now this pops up with the last few doses.

hehe, and just one successful trip to the bathroom away too! Go try it now!
