Spent weeks shuffling my AM and PM timing trying to cut down from twice-weekly shots to just once per compound. Got tired of all the pinning honestly. Settled on one Tirz one Reta per week after some trial and error with the schedule. Peaking times line up better now and the whole routine feels...

if you're taking mounjaro for diabetes you probably need the higher dose for blood sugar control. for weight loss it might be fine to stay lower.

Started semaglutide end of January and dropped about 20 pounds already. Not taking progress pics which sucks, feels like there's a difference but then I look and still think I look the same. At least progress is progress, even if it doesn't feel like much.

Try adding some of the other stuff if you want to mix in a glucagon agent. Dropped from 7mg tirz weekly down to 5 when I added 1mg of the other one and kept the benefits with fewer sides. Everyone's different though.

That's amazing! Do you have to get new clothes all the time?

I guess I'm the exception because I lost weight everywhere BUT my face. I suppose it depends on where you lose fat first?

I thought the 'ozempic face' concern was overblown; I figured any weight loss would slim the face, regardless of the method. I've recently shed around 13 pounds (6 kg), and my cheekbones are way more defined. I wasn't severely overweight, just a bit chubby. My doctor put me on ozempic for blood...

Just curious, are you a woman? I notice my period really impacts how hungry I am even with the medication.

Congratulations!! You're looking great!

I agree! I still feel heavy. My husband even calls me "skinny." My mind is still 215 lbs, not 130 lbs. It's wrong!

I lowered my dose by about 1mg from where I left off. So, when I stopped at 4mg, I restarted at 3mg. When I stopped at 3mg, I restarted at 2mg. It was totally based on gut feeling, not science. I just figured that since I increase by 1mg every month, I'd lose about 1mg of tolerance with each...

For me, the constant hunger came back around 10 days after stopping Reta, and the urge to binge followed about a week later. I'm back on now because of it. I only stopped because I had to. I've started and stopped twice and had no problems jumping back on either time. I took about a month off...

I'm just starting out... nervous about the side effects! PulseBTW445 Good to know it might just be temporary!

That's amazing! Congrats! Hoping I can shed these pounds too! You're almost there!

Thanks! That's helpful to know. I'll probably skip buying one then.
