The low-dose start is the cautious approach and that reads fine - 1 unit at the first injection just to check for a reaction is how a lot of careful people begin. The full prescribed dose has room to ramp up from there.

For Reta, 1mg weekly start is conservative in a good way - GI adaptation at low dose avoids early dropout. Standard escalation is 1mg every 4 weeks, ceiling usually at 4-6mg.

BAC water doesn't go off at the printed date - benzyl alcohol keeps it stable for years. Cloudiness only.

I've heard people talking about that, Mike_1977. Which peps are you thinking about taking?

Yep, and it's a challenge to not go overboard.

I hear ya. You look great though. I've lost 90 pounds in 14 months, it's wild.

Congrats, you look amazing. I like that third dress especially!

Killing it! Great effort.

One year and 50+ lbs gone is outstanding! You look much happier in the photos. Mind if I share this on the community? It's a place for progress pics and seeing these updates really gets people going. Or, feel free to post it there yourself!

That's awesome! A free shopping spree right in your own home. Congrats on your progress!

Congrats man! Looking fantastic!

Crushing it!
