The plan to stay on the meds is the right read of the data - the weight cycling history you're describing is exactly what the regain studies track, and compounding as the fallback keeps the option available regardless of what insurance does next.

Cagrilinide targets the amylin pathway, which addresses food noise from a different angle than GLP-1 alone. The pairing is worth trying if sema alone isn't holding.

The Tirz to Reta switch is one of the more discussed real-world comparisons. Food noise is a distinct signal from hunger - they're different suppressible behaviors and GLP-1 variants hit them differently. The 10lb/43lb split reflects this: Reta is a stronger weight-loss driver but food-seeking...

lol yeah dropped like $75 on some 30mg from an online vendor one time. def should've asked around first — would've saved some cash

Totally normal! Your body is adjusting to a big change. Stick with it, it usually levels out. And congrats on taking the first steps!

They're definitely envious. They liked you heavy, and now they're jealous. Maybe they didn't even realize they felt that way.

I'd stay at your goal for a few months at least. Then, slowly lower it to the lowest amount you can maintain on. I lowered my dose right away, the same week I hit my goal. I also started spacing the shot out to two weeks. I gained back 10 lbs over 6 months.

People just don't know what to say. I've lost about 100 lbs and you know what people ask? "Are you dying?" Just ignore the remarks. You're doing great.

I stayed at the highest dose, but I started pushing the shot back a day every week or so. I went from every 7 days to about every 3 weeks, and it didn't change my appetite or weight much. I went a little past 3 weeks and started getting hungrier, so I figured out that 3 weeks is my sweet spot...

That's what it's all about! It's not just the numbers. It's the feeling!

I had a moment like that shopping for clothes the other day... I was actually tearing up in the dressing room! It's been decades since I could fit into normal sizes.

Congratulations
