    Tirzepatide - when does it actually work?

    I'm a 60 yo, 6'1", 170 lb male, on TRT. I started Zepbound at 2.5 mg when I weighed 201, and the appetite suppression was there within a day. I thought it was placebo, but it was real. And the constipation was also real from the very start. Even though my doc wanted me to increase the dose, I...

    Tirzepatide - when does it actually work?

    Cool. But the reason you took so long to get to 5mg is because you were still getting results at the lower doses, right? That's what I was asking...

    Tirzepatide - when does it actually work?

    Did it take you six months to get to 5mg because the lower doses were working for you?

    Tirzepatide - when does it actually work?

    The usual recommendation is to stay at 2.5mg for a month. I jumped right to 5mg when I started, but I didn't know any better at the time. I didn't have any negative effects. I know a couple of friends who went from 2.5 to 5 after just a couple of weeks, also with no issues. But since you've...

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    Not sure if it's for the best. It seems strange that your post was removed, especially since I've seen members express their opinions without consequence. I understand there's a political balance, but it would be nice to see more consistency when it comes to deleting posts. But, there's always...

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    My investments are set to 75% bonds and 25% stock, but I'm still worried since I can't cash out for another nine months.

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    The depressing part is I'm planning to move overseas, but I'm worried I won't be able to if Trump keeps messing with the economy. I might lose my retirement savings because I can't withdraw without huge penalties until mid-2026. My dream of retiring at 60 might be gone if he keeps upsetting...

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    I saw an article saying that there might be a HUGE tariff increase on stuff coming from overseas, potentially as much as doubling the cost on some items. I'm linking the article but basically it suggests tariffs could hit 100% soon. https://apnews.com

    Down 50+ lbs, feeling amazing!

    It's not just about looks, but health too. I think about family members who didn't have access to these medications and struggled. It's a real opportunity to take control.

    Surgery + GLP-1: a total win!

    I work out about 5 days a week including light weights and I walk at least a couple of miles a day. I also make sure to eat a lot of protein and veggies. I think that's helped.

    Surgery + GLP-1: a total win!

    I'm so happy to see your success. I have been on a GLP-1 for just over a year and have dropped about 70 pounds! The biggest thing for me is my inflammation is way down. I feel so much better!

    Sudden Turkey Neck?! Help!

    I'm starting to think cosmetic surgery is the only real solution for this. However, I've seen some jaw exercise balls that are supposed to help with jawline definition. You can find them online.
