25 down in 2 months at 3mg split is solid - the every-3-day pattern is one of the better approaches for managing side effects while escalating. The maintenance question after Reta is genuinely underexplored.

The 6-day rotation is worth trying first - the end-of-week hunger is a half-life timing issue and shortening the interval addresses it directly.

Celiac plus hemochromatosis plus PCOS is a heavy load, and GLP-1 support changes the equation. High fiber with the GLP-1 suppression is the right combination for that baseline.

when i started, a friend (not supportive at all) pushed me toward a body comp scale and kept saying i'd just lose muscle. i was determined to prove her wrong and i've shown her my progression photos. body fat down almost 20%, muscle mass up. got the scale for like 30 bucks on Amazon.

At 1 mg for 4 months, started 6 months ago, and haven't lost anything in 8 weeks—or I do and it comes back. Appetite's creeping back, not feeling as full as quick even with small portions and protein. Thinking it's time to move up. What's the jump from 1.0 to 1.7 like for people? Hoping I can...

Started at .25, went .5, dropped 25 in half a year. Now low and slow on small doses every couple weeks to hold it. Lots of protein but still losing muscle—at 56 the skin sag is real. Scared to stop though, always comes back after menopause tanked my metabolism before.

those variance numbers are rough. 65 to 72 is a real swing. i'd probably just go with the middle ground round to 22 units at 15mg and call it good enough. at 1.75 years in you probably got the feel for this better than most.

have you looked at your diet? are you getting enough protein? refined carbs can spike blood sugar and crash hard, which triggers hunger when the crash hits. just my experience tho, not a medical thing.

Update: Tried the inner thigh. Not bad, but a bit more sting than the stomach. Hoping it helps with the reflux! Thanks for all the input!

I guess I'll try the fattiest spot, which is my upper inner thigh.

Hey all, sorry if this has come up a bunch, I looked but didn't find much. I'm thinking of switching my injections from my belly to my thigh to see if it helps with some side effects (like heartburn and nausea), but everything I read says to inject on the outside of the thigh. The thing is, I...

Yeah, I've noticed similar things happening with other companies too.

Looking good!

I've dropped about 65 pounds in half a year. I'm catching up to that dude's before pic!

About 18 months. It was a journey!

Thank you all for the encouragement! And even the skeptics. I'm going to keep encouraging anyone interested. I'll share details about what worked/didn't. Not medical advice, but things like I only eat certain low-carb fruits. How I struggle to get enough protein. How scales might be outdated...

Semaglutide has helped me drop 219 pounds! Was at 402, now 183. Lots of loose skin but I could care less!

That’s fantastic, congrats! I dropped about the same amount using semaglutide. The consistent supply helped me stay on track.

I hear you! I'm still seeing the "old me" in the mirror sometimes, even though the scale says different. It's weird!

Thanks, everyone!
