    Weight loss & better treatment: Real?

    People are much nicer now that I've dropped about 75lbs over the past year and a half. I've gone down two sizes, and now I don't even open my own doors anymore! Everyone comments on my appearance, and I get makeup compliments even though I've always done it the same way. Strangers are friendlier...

    Weight loss & better treatment: Real?

    Yep, it's real even in my late 50s! I went from about 270lbs to 160lbs (I'm 5'3"). NSV: Early on, it was being able to climb stairs without pulling myself up using the railing. Also, being able to bend over in the garden without feeling like my chest was suffocating me and making me winded. And...

    GLP-1s: Magic or nah?

    I don't even tell people anymore. Too much judgement. It's my body, my choice. My spouse knows and supports me. That's all that matters.

    GLP-1s: Magic or nah?

    It's a tool, for sure. And real success means exercise and healthy food. I am so grateful for this medication. I've dropped over 90 pounds since spring of last year. 50 more pounds to go and first time EVER, I feel like I can get there. I'll stay on it forever if I can; I hope so anyway.

    Tirzep Anxiety - Anyone else?

    I use a popular online source. It's about $110, but they send out coupon codes sometimes. I'm not sure if it's helping yet. I quit drinking coffee a while ago, and my energy is terrible. I started the Lipo-C recently but haven't noticed much. I'm gonna switch from 1ml every 2-3 days IM to 0.3ml...

    Tirzep Anxiety - Anyone else?

    I used brand name initially and those felt like nothing so I had zero anxiety. When I started doing my own injections it was a little nerve wracking at first, but after a few times, I got used to it. My buddy's wife is so freaked out by needles that he has to inject her in the glutes where she...
