Just hit my latest Mounjaro check - down 10.3 kg since fall and every bit of it was fat. Kept all my muscle, even gained a tiny bit, and no bone loss either. This stuff really does change things. Way more confident about using it now.

Oh yeah, I remember now... the main researcher said AOD didn't really work. So it may work for some folks, but it wasn't great overall.

AOD doesn't get much love around here. Apparently mice have way more receptors for it: another forum I've heard women respond to AOD better than men. But any weight/fat loss might just be from the GLP-1.

Yeah, listen to your body. There are def some weeks where you need to scale back a little. Pushing too hard isn't worth it. It's not a race, it's about being healthier in the long run.

Thanks everyone, appreciate the support!

Still aiming for around 250lbs, got maybe 70 more to shed before I'm happy and not always thinking about it. I went from wearing 3XLT shirts to a regular 2XL, and pants size 52 to a 46, almost a 44. I don't always see the difference in the mirror, but these pics I took really showed me the...

Your doctor is wrong. Everyone reacts differently. Listen to your body! Also, your eating habits might be making the GI symptoms worse. Need more info to offer better suggestions.

I stopped Mounjaro because of the side effects. I'm a 40-year-old female, 5'7", 185lbs, so I'm overweight, but not enough to stay on Mounjaro and be miserable. I only lost 4lbs in two months. If I'd lost like 15lbs, I would've stayed. But the sacrifices weren't worth only losing 4lbs. I didn’t...

Thanks everyone for the replies! It's good to know I'm not totally crazy. Maybe it's just the stress of starting something new, like Heal_Gang mentioned.

I straight up asked my doctor and she said it's not related. *shrug*

I think semaglutide is messing with my OCD. I started taking it a few days ago, as prescribed of course. I've had some stomach issues, which I expected, but my OCD feels like it's on overdrive, especially my relationship OCD. Nothing seems to help, and I'm feeling really blah. I have felt this...

Hey DocInTheBox, thanks for the info on the animal B12. Have you looked into any peptides for general wellness? I was reading about Melanotan II and its potential cognitive and anti-inflammatory benefits, but wasn't sure if it's just marketing hype. I'm curious if anyone here has tried it and if...

Next time I'm going to ask if they can ship with someone else. It took twice as long to get through Canada as it did to get here from China.

I'm dealing with this right now. Their shipping is a total mess. It landed nearby, sat for a couple of days, then got sent halfway across the country. Now it's back near where it started and is supposed to be on its way to me. It's only a few hours away, but no updates in days.

Nope, not for me. That's like most vitamins. Your body has to convert it.
