Been on 20 IU a day for a few weeks, all in one go in the morning. I notice something about 20 minutes after, mostly feeling calmer around people, nothing dramatic. I'd start at the low end and only move up if a full week gives you nothing.

7.5mg gave me nothing extra, and no new side effects either. Four weeks later I'm back at 5mg. Just try it and see.

Body dysmorphia is strange. My theory is that for years we saw ourselves flat, in 2D, which kept the obesity out of view, and now we're seeing the 3D version and the brain can't process it. I've lost 170 lbs and yet my breath still catches as I slide into a booth, half expecting it to be tight...

Update after 5 weeks of tesamorelin at 1mg. I went from 5 on 2 off to daily these past 3 weeks and I'm running reta alongside, bumped up to 6mg last week after sitting on 5mg. I'm a 69 year old guy at 170 lbs with 10 to 15 lbs left to lose, training hard three times weekly right up to failure...

The jump from 1mg up to 2mg wrecked me, constant vomiting and nausea. I went down to 1.25mg and stayed a few weeks, then edged up to 1.5 and 1.75, and after around 8 weeks of that I tried 2.0 again. Still unpleasant but bearable, and seeing my weight finally drop after such a long plateau made...

Whoa, 250mg! Assumed my occasional 100mg after a couple months in was already pushing the ceiling. That compound genuinely works wonders for me, so now I'm feeling tempted to push higher! Couple questions though, how's the dilution work out? Mine come in 500mg vials. Fitting 250mg into a single...

The fantasy of losing the weight and coming off everything versus the reality of what the medications are actually doing to your metabolic picture is one of the most important reframes. The OP's gradual process since summer '22 is what taking the long view looks like in practice. What did...

Splitting 1mg to 2x0.5mg works if you mark the plunger. Fridge door is fine - cool not frozen is what matters. The expiry question is actually the harder one than the split.

Switching is an option but anhedonia on reta usually settles by weeks 4-8 without a change.

Nurri is on the list to try. The aluminum can format matters more than people think - it changes the taste profile versus plastic. Fairlife and Premier are the two most people burn out on first because they are everywhere. Does Nurri have a standard macro split or is it lower calorie?

Every 5 days starting 2.5mg. After 4 weeks no loss, bump 5mg a week. But the real dosage is wherever you're losing. Stick with that. More isn't always better.

had to stop for a month due to surgeries. the hunger came back like crazy plus blood sugar control tanked. already worried about slowing weight loss anyway. can't wait to restart next week. doc warned me it's lifetime maintenance.

high blood sugar has me scared of anything with dac. had a crazy high a1c at one point, flipped it with diet and exercise. using sermorelin in a fasted state now - it's a growth hormone secretagogue with lower blood sugar impact. working so far. always fasted to keep insulin resistance from...

Protein shakes and bars help hit your target. I do 2 Premier shakes a day (30g each) and 1 Ready bar (15g protein, 7g fiber)—75g total, then fill the rest with a solid meal. Eat on schedule even when you're not hungry; easy to just skip it. Hit up r/Glp1meals for snack ideas, the mod actually...

i've gotten glutathione, antibiotics, lidocaine, iv vitamins — all legit sources and worked as expected. stick with 1-2 vendors, the spam gets out of hand quick
