400 to 180 is a fundamental shift in metabolic health and daily capacity. Shooting for 130 from 180 is realistic - the second half of a long journey often moves at a different pace but remains achievable.

The addiction quieting effect is one of the more documented secondary benefits of GLP-1s. Smoking and alcohol often become noticeably less appealing within the first few months - the dopamine regulation that reduces food noise seems to apply to other compulsive patterns too. Seven months clean...

The 3am pattern is common in the early months on tirzepatide. CBD plus magnesium glycinate before bed is one of the consistent fixes. Most find it settles around month 3.

Glad to hear it's helping you! The nausea can be rough, but hopefully, it'll pass quickly. I found that sipping ginger ale helped.

I've got IBS-D, and Ozempic stopped it completely. Usually, I had to run to the bathroom in the mornings, but now things are different. Though, now I'm dealing with constipation since starting Seroquel - haven't gone in almost a week and had to use an enema! Now I go every few days and need...

Give it like a fortnight. Maybe a bit longer.

Totally normal! Give your body time to acclimate to the medication first. I didn’t really lose any noticeable weight until after the first month, but I did observe a shift in my eating; I was consuming significantly less.

I had the same issue, and started spacing my injections out more often. Now I do .25mg every 5 days. Also, don't compare yourself to what you read online! Everyone's progress is going to be different.

Calories in, calories out!

It's different for everyone. Some get them, some don't. If you do, try smaller meals and avoid high-fat stuff.

I wouldn't take that as gospel. Reta responses are all over the map. Sema barely touched my appetite, but Reta shut it down completely. When I started at 2mg a week, I had to force myself to eat just to get enough calories. Everyone needs to figure out their own response instead of depending on...

I'm finding food doesn't taste right anymore. It's a real problem. I'm so grateful for the medication because it's helping a lot, but *everything* tastes either too salty or the texture is just...off. Anyone else?

I love seeing progress pics! It's amazing how much better people feel, not just physically but mentally, when they achieve their weight loss goals. Keep up the amazing work!

It seems like you lost some weight. /s Congrats on the weightdrop!

You should post a picture with a fitted shirt! You really did great!

Great job!

You looked good in both pics but your "after" glow is awesome

I'm thinking about it. Still a timed feeder, but one of those chip readers. One of my cats refuses to wear a collar, so I need to see if it can read the implant.

Since we're talking about butt-wiping... my cats are both kinda chunky, but one has always been a stable weight. The vet isn't worried. The other one is why I had to stop free-feeding. He came to me as a tiny kitten and blew up to almost 17 pounds before I took him to the vet and asked what was...

Yay! I'm excited for you! I did the same thing last year and I swear I watched like, a million YouTube videos on how to mix peptides, convinced I would mess it up and end up in the ER lol! I was so careful, pausing the videos every step of the way. Now, a year later, I mix while watching...
