Anhedonia and the flat-affect period in the first weeks is well-documented enough that it has its own pattern - most people report it lifting around week 3-4 for starter dose, but the window varies, and if it hasn't shifted by week 6 it's worth discussing with a prescriber whether the dose or...

Facebook and messaging app vendors are the highest-risk sourcing category - no batch testing visibility and volume-over-quality business model. The forum-vetted sources with reputation systems are the better filter than ad placement. Wholesale pricing from Facebook ads usually signals cut or...

24 lbs from 227 on sema with minimal side effects is a solid run. No side effects at 2.5mg on tirz is common - the early dose is well tolerated for most.

That excitement is so real! Those first few weeks felt monumental. I was so nervous and excited when I started!

I felt exactly the same way! I was so hesitant, but now I'm so glad I tried it. It's like a weight has been lifted (literally and figuratively!).

I'm also 5'6", and started at 170lbs. I've lost 18 so far. I started my first dose around the start of the year. Still below the full dose. I didn't want to lose too rapidly, so this has been ideal. My goal is 130 but most of all I want to be in the healthy zone, below 150.

I think "only" 35-40 lbs can make a HUGE difference! I know I couldn't drop the weight with just diet and exercise alone. I wanted to lose about 45 pounds (down 25 today!) and so far, it's changed my life for the better. For many of us who struggled with weight our whole lives, these drugs help...

What dosage are you on?

Fantastic progress! I haven't been on it for a full year yet but I hope to be somewhere close to where you are when I hit that milestone. You have a glow about you, and I'm not just talking about the weight loss.

Just wondering, why do I always see before/after pics with the current pics on the left?

My feet changed sizes too! I had to buy all new shoes. It's a weird thing that I never expected!

Thanks! Just 10 pounds left for you. So happy for us 😁

I haven't been below 200 in like a decade. I've gotten rid of around 95 pounds. I weighed myself earlier and started bawling my eyes out!

I'm just starting out, less than 3 months in, and haven't seen much movement with the scale. Driftwood_99, Did you change your diet or exercise routine to see those results?

Such a genuine smile!

Sure! I started on 0.25mg of semaglutide, then went up to 0.5mg after a month. I'm currently on 1mg every week. I'm not sure if its a maintenance dose, but I've been on it for 3 months at this level with no weight gain, so I guess it is!

Thank you!!

Hey everyone! It's been a minute since I've posted. I wanted to share my weight loss journey. I found a picture from like, 3-ish years ago and compared it to one from a week ago. What a difference! 😮

This forum needs a like button! Thanks for explaining this so simply for us confused newbies. 😉

I'm just starting out. Did anyone experience side effects that eventually went away? I'm a bit nervous...
