I've been on .5mg for months, and my weight loss has barely moved. I've lost almost 40lbs, but it's stopped I think I need to increase my dose? I've been on it for about 8 months.

I'm not big on protein shakes either. I like the Chobani protein drinks or Greek yogurt with a scoop of protein powder mixed in. Or even just regular Greek yogurt with a bit of honey and fruit!

I don't think there's any real proof that the injection site matters...

This is such a great point. I’ve been either chubby or really overweight my entire life. A bunch of times, with different plans, I’ve lost 50+ pounds, but I never fixed my relationship with food or got rid of the food noise. I can only force myself for so long before I fall apart and gain it all...

I feel the exact same way!!

Thanks everyone for your thoughts! It is a really important thing to keep in mind about GLP-1 meds like Reta and Tirz. It's key to understand the difference between "eliminating hunger completely" and "managing hunger to help with weight loss." The idea isn't to never feel hungry-that won't work...

Hi everyone! I've been realizing a trend with GLP-1s, and it's got me thinking we need to talk about it. Many of us (including me) start these meds hoping we'll basically never feel hungry again. Then, the second we DO feel hunger, we freak out and want to up the dose right away! I totally fell...

I just hit my one-year anniversary on these meds! Started with sema up to 2.5mg, then switched to tirzepatide and now I'm at 7.5mg. HW: 256 lbs, CW: 158 lbs, GW: was 159 lbs but maybe 145 lbs now! I'm 5'6 and 41 y/o. These drugs have been life-changing. I'm also gonna need a breast lift at some...

Wow! I'm on week 2 of tirzepatide, and I barely have an appetite. Should I be worried?

I saw a post where someone said they had the hardest time losing weight because of PCOS, and this medicine changed that. I'm hoping for the same!

Well done! Always beautiful, but it's amazing you're feeling better too. 😁

Haha, my auntie once said I was getting my neck back! Congrats, it's a major victory!

Sure! I went up by 0.25mg every month or so until I hit 1mg. I've been holding steady there and so far so good!

Nice! My starting point was about the same as yours - I'm thinking about trying a GLP-1 but I'm a little nervous too.

I gradually increased my dose from 0.25 to 1mg over maybe 5 months. I've been stable at 1mg since last fall actually. Since I'm paying out of pocket, I'm hoping this dose keeps working so I can save some cash.

I'm celebrating hitting my first milestone: losing 50 pounds in about 10 and a half months! Officially made it to Onederland. I know some folks get bummed if they aren't shedding weight super fast, but I wanted to point out that even a pound or so a week is still a healthy pace for many of us.

I'm in a similar boat as TirzTargeted. My size 18 pants are practically falling off me now! Aiming for single digits!

Amazing work! How long did it take you from start to now?

This is inspiring, your tummy and thighs look amazing

I love seeing the confidence in your eyes now! And it's okay to still enjoy food, right? I saw someone posted a pic of an empty pizza box, lol!
