Good spot to be in for bumping the dose if needed. A few paths forward here, really depends whether the plan is aggressive titration from the start, or holding to the smallest amount that still gets the job done. For faster titration, either jump to a moderate amount twice weekly, or a...

Thank you so much!! Similar height here too, this genuinely excites and gives real hope. This past year brought real discouragement, and it turned into an unhealthy obsession over the number more than ever before. Feeling calmer than when the stall first hit, but honestly that break might've...

Also picked up my Tirz from that same place before finding this forum. Curious whether you were happy with whatever you ended up ordering?

Does anyone have experience running the sleep-focused releasing peptide entirely on its own? I know the typical approach layers it in alongside the other releasing compound, and I've researched that angle plenty already. I know a lot of people get solid results combining the two, but honestly...

Was curious how you dropped weight this quickly, saw Mounjaro mentioned, stopped reading right there. Congrats regardless.

Noticed hunger fluctuates sometimes on this medication. A few days here and there of unusually strong hunger, but looking back it tends to follow a period of barely eating anything, or lines up with a hormonal cycle. Currently on a fairly low amount and hoping appetite doesn't disappear entirely.

Brand-name Ozempic runs $139 for me, plus another $50 every time the prescription gets renewed. I've heard you might be able to get it through Costco for under $100 instead, though I haven't actually tried that route myself yet.

There's real substance to that, with one caveat attached. Looking at the sole direct comparison study out there, the third compound pulled ahead, roughly 20% average body-weight reduction against about 14% for the second compound across 72 weeks. So broadly speaking, yes, it does tend to come...

Never dropped a single pound on the oral version. Tried both the lower and higher tablet strengths, just doesn't work for everybody.

Yeah, shifting taste buds are a genuinely common side effect, you're far from alone here, plenty of people on this drug class notice a temporary metallic or strange aftertaste on certain foods, especially bold flavors like mustard or heavily seasoned meat. Usually eases off after a bit as the...

Ran through one vial of a compound and won't be using the rest. Probably young enough that it didn't register the way expected before adding the second, since nothing noticeable happened from the first alone, but the combination definitely does something. Also, one of the earliest single-vial...
