Grabbing the old size by habit and having it fall off is one of the best non-scale markers - the clothing recalibration usually runs 2-3 sizes behind actual weight loss because the habit of reaching for the bigger size dies slower than the pounds do.

The hair loss concern on reta is real enough that delaying the start until there's a protective protocol in place is a reasonable call - AHK-Cu targeting the follicular pathway rather than general skin remodeling makes it the more specific tool, and the two copper peptides do work on different...

US warehouse arrivals for both Tirz and Klow at the same time is useful timing for the stack question - having them available simultaneously removes the wait from the decision.

That's awesome! I was mortified when a colleague teased me because my jeans were too big Last week. They were four sizes too big! I went out and bought a pair four sizes smaller, thinking they'd be a 'goal' pair. They fit! I almost cried.

I got serious about losing weight when my size 7XL shirts started feeling tight, and I couldn't find anything bigger. Being able to buy clothes that actually look good is a great motivator.

So, I'm also looking at Tesamorelin and saw the usual dose is like 1 or 2 mg/day. Do you actually go thru a 5mg vial in like 3-5 days? Seems like you would need to buy a LOT of vials... or am I missing something?

Good question. It mainly comes down to managing tolerance and cost. I've found that taking breaks helps keep the medication effective, and it saves some money too. Plus, it forces me to rely on the habits I've built, which is a good test to make sure they're really sticking.

Thanks everyone! 💯 is a big milestone

Are you working out harder or doing more weight lifting?

I've been using Tirzepatide on and off since around March '25, usually in cycles of about 10-12 weeks. So far, I'm down maybe 65 pounds since I started, and a total of around 95 pounds from my peak weight. The best part's been the lifestyle changes, though. During the breaks, the weight's...

Thanks, everyone, for the kind words! It means a lot. I'm thinking of pausing for maybe 2-3 months? Just to see how it goes. Fingers crossed!

I have to say, I absolutely ADORE your silver hair! It looks so fierce! Keep slaying with that red lipstick and fabulous hair, and congrats on the weight loss so far!

This part of my life is for me! Focusing on my well-being. #HealthGoals

Thanks for all the advice. I'm starting to realize that even if the meds are helping with weight, might be playing games with my brain. I need to talk to a doctor sooner rather than later. Appreciate it.

I read that too. People saying Tirz made their moods so much better. I wish it did for me. Haven't seen a mood change at all.

I was also seeing the same thing. Guys and women in their late 30s to late 40s going a bit mad. Perimenopause in women, mid-life crisis in men. It could be part of it.

No clue about any of this beforehand ...

She was on the same med, with nobody to back her up. Lost about the same weight, but on a bigger dose. We talked a bit about her mood, but never thought it was bad news. Then she stopped saying much and got anxious and boom - just vanished like a bad smell! It's wild, because our kid was also...

Has anybody else on these meds, like that Mounjaro, dropped a ton of weight and then suddenly had mood swings that wrecked their home life? I was on 2.5mg for a month, then 5mg for a couple months, and lost a fifth of my weight. Now my wife and kid are gone after 12 years, and I'm out a couple...

Awesome!
