    Down 140lbs! Surgery in April!

    I started using Ozempic almost a year ago, and it's made a huge difference in my life. I developed some bad eating habits during the pandemic and gained a noticeable amount of weight. Previously I was an XL, now I was an XXL-XXXL. The only negative side effect I've experienced is constipation...

    Zepbound vs. Other stuff – anyone notice?

    That's true! Testing showed they were a bit overfilled, which might explain better glucose readings.

    Zepbound vs. Other stuff – anyone notice?

    Those peptides are frequently tested from what I've seen. They're not the cheapest and don't have fancy packaging, but they didn't try to hide anything or rebrand to avoid legal issues when people had problems. No one got ripped off or didn't receive their product that I know of. Their products...

    Weight loss drugs: Too $$?

    This is so true. If the price point wasn't so stupid high, this would cut down on side hustles trying to get it for cheaper and sell it to others.

    Weight loss drugs: Too $$?

    One study said it costs less than $5 to make a month's supply of Ozempic. Big pharma says it costs billions to research, and that's true. So, what's a fair price? It depends on the market. If it's a rare disease with a few thousand patients, it justifies higher prices. But GLP-1s have the...

    Weight loss drugs: Too $$?

    On one hand, it should cost whatever a rich, desperate person who can't control themselves around food is willing to pay (or their insurance). They'll always get that money in America. That's where the price is highest. On the other hand, it's not that difficult to make these drugs, and the...

    Weight loss drugs: Too $$?

    You could also think about the medical costs you might avoid in the future because you're not overweight anymore.

    CGMs and GLP-1s: Who's Using 'Em?

    I'm not diabetic or pre-diabetic, but a fasting glucose test came back slightly over 100, which worried me. So, when the Dexcom Stelo became available, I jumped on it. I wore the first sensor while waiting for my first GLP1 prescription (compounded semaglutide) and am saving the second sensor...
