still getting food noise? might be more habit than hunger. i broke my routine of a cookie and candy bar after lunch and dinner — once i consciously stopped, i don't miss it. figured out if i eat one sweet, i want more, so i just don't eat the first one. what dose are you on? ever tried different...

33, 5'7. started tirzepatide in december at 208, down to 180 now. on 10mg every 6 days plus 500mg metformin daily. huge improvement from where i was.

Tried a single vial of oxytocin from a Chinese source but it wouldn't recon properly with Hospira solution. Oxytocin's finicky with pH and all that. Plus the effects are super short-lived. Don't know anyone who sticks with it long-term.

That's a good idea! I think I'll take some pics to compare.

I had a cute elastic belt that did the trick... until my jeans started looking like clown pants, haha. I even tried moving the metal clasp to make the waist smaller. Then I got 2 pairs from a thrift store. Size 12! I waited to buy new jeans (size 8) until I reached my goal weight (after losing...

So, my jeans are starting to feel kinda roomy, lol. I can still wear them, but they're definitely not as snug as they used to be. When did you all start buying smaller pants? Should I just tighten my belt and wait until I'm at the perfect dose, or is it time to go shopping? Thanks!

Losing almost 40 lbs in 10 weeks is too fast, you'll lose muscle. Your body breaks down anything it can to survive. Maybe 10lbs is water, so really about 20 of fat and 10 of muscle and other stuff. Huge calorie deficit causes that, which doesn't fit with you saying you didn't get much appetite...

I only lose about a pound a week, but I'm getting stronger and adding muscle. The key is to not have a huge calorie deficit and eat enough protein. I've been taking 3mg of retatrutide every 5/6 days for 3 months.

For those of you just starting, don't get discouraged if the scale doesn't move right away. Slow and steady wins the race! I've been on this journey for almost a year, it can be done!

Amazing work! Congrats!

Totally Whole_Free783. It's like that paper towel roll analogy. When it's full, losing a few sheets barely makes a difference. But when it's almost empty, even a couple sheets is noticeable. That's why I take photos. You see changes you wouldn't otherwise!

That's awesome progress!

That's amazing. I see that nice hourglass shape coming in!

I did split dosing with sema when I was moving up in dosage to reduce side effects. It worked great for that. Never really noticed if it helped with weight loss, though. Just be careful if you split it *too* much, you'll end up lowering your overall weekly dose!

Starting my first injection tomorrow! This chart really helped me out with reconstitution since the numbers are kinda weird. Quick question though: I'm using regular bacteriostatic water, not the acidic kind. How long can I keep a vial in the fridge? According to this, I won't finish the 5mg...
