Congrats on hitting your target! I get the concern about going too low. You might have lost some muscle. Putting some of that back on could help you stabilize around your ideal weight. Maybe ask your doctor about taking the 2.5mg less often? Like, every week and a half or so?

U r aging backwards!!! Looking fab!

Wow u look like 15 years younger!

Thanks, everyone, for the advice! I really appreciate it. I'm going to talk to my doctor about maybe trying a lower dose or potentially switching to semaglutide. I'll definitely keep the diet tips in mind, too, Coach_B_Fit!

Yeah, I had a super bad time with nausea on tirzepatide, too – like, couldn't even function. I switched to semaglutide, and the side effects are way more manageable for me. I know everyone's different, but I didn't get nearly as much nausea. I got my prescription through an online clinic and...

Hi all, I'm having a really rough time with tirzepatide. After my second 5mg shot, I was so nauseous for like ten days straight. I ended up losing like, seven pounds in that time because I couldn't keep anything down. It was awful. So now I'm thinking maybe this isn't the right med for me. Has...

Has anyone had really bad constipation on tirzepatide? I've heard it's a common side effect. Any tips?

I've been dividing my doses and injecting every other day, about 0.6mg each time. That adds up to around 2.2mg per week. I feel pretty good, a bit more energetic on injection days, and slightly less the day after. No negative side effects so far. I'm losing about 1 pound each week. I'm thinking...

Awesome transformation!

Wow, Drew14 that's fascinating! So, some of us are just genetically predisposed to lose more weight on these meds? I wonder if they'll be able to test for that gene someday before prescribing.

I love this for you. I'm getting close myself. It's a weird goal, but it totally makes sense here, haha. Congrats!

Congrats on being overweight! ❤️

Amazing!! Congrats and thanks for sharing💖

Wowza, I just peeked at your profile. You are absolutely gorgeous... I'm thrilled for you, and I bet you feel amazing! Would you be willing to share details about your dosage and timing, and if you're at a maintenance dose now? Since I'm a physician and you're a nurse, feel free to use...

It reminds me of that 'Homeless' episode of South Park. Someone said they couldn't tell the difference between the homeless and homeowners because the homeless were buying houses. Then he starts questioning if his wife (of many years) is secretly homeless. How will prejudiced people easily...

Exactly! They used to say they were just worried about our well-being. But when we actually take steps to get healthier using GLP-1s, they get angry.

Wowee!! Great achievement! You look fantastic!

This is so helpful, thank you. I'm only on week 5 and already noticing the "full" feeling hits fast. This might be my problem. I tried a full shake in the morning and felt gross for hours. Do you think 10g at a time is enough to still help muscle, or do I need bigger doses?
