Big difference is the right read - those shifts in the face and posture are real.

Getting the A1C to 4.9 while dropping the blood sugar medication is the actual win here - the 82 lbs is what photographed well but the metabolic markers are what the doctor's visit was really tracking.

The 3% range is strong for topical. Most start at 1.5% first to gauge skin response. Powder quality varies by source - blue color confirms intact copper chelation but isn't a complete quality indicator.

Heh. I've dropped about 37 lbs – basically a medium-sized Labradoodle.

Amazing progress! I've dropped 3 miniature pinschers!

I'm about halfway to my goal. Started at 240lbs and I am at 200lbs after about 3 months. It definitely feels great!

You look fantastic! Congrats!

I wanted to order 3 pens since there's a deal, but it's letting me buy only one. Now I get it.

Starting my journey tomorrow, any advice is welcome.

I've been thinking about trying a compounded testosterone cream. Anyone know about what a month's supply goes for? Insurance probably won't cover it.

The cost is already insane... you'd imagine that because public health systems around the world could save so much money from less obesity-related problems thanks to Mounjaro, governments would try to negotiate cheaper prices. I'm probably talking rubbish, sorry. Just spent ages getting my kid...

Big Pharma will keep trying to lock down these meds with layers of patents. Gotta keep the cash flowing!

Only when I hit my target weight and didn't want to lose further. I was happy for that and for normal bowel movements. It was cool at first not finishing one cup of food. Then you're like oh wait I don't want my hair to fall out lol.

I'm more concerned about constipation than anything else. Anyone have tips?

I've decided that I'm going to continue with a maintenance dose after I reach my goal. I felt the appetite suppression almost immediately – within hours of my first dose. Even if a low dose isn't as effective, that little bit of impulse control is worth it for me.
