Slow start at .25mg is normal and not a sign the medication is not working. The plateau at the starter dose is real but expected. The misinformation about what counts as normal makes it harder to read your own experience. Community-based data beats social media clips.

160 pounds and the pose that comes with it. That confidence is the part that does not show on the scale.

120 down and a vial collection to show for it. 10 more.

Yasss queen! You look like you've had a surgical procedure! But like, the healthy kind!

You go, girl! You are killing it! 😍😍😍❤️

Fantastic! Get some sun and enjoy your improved health!

What a change! And I second that, your hair is gorgeous!

Thanks again everyone! I'm so glad I found this group; you're all so supportive!
