Magnesium glycinate for cramps is a good call. D3 with K2 is consistently recommended on GLP-1. CoQ10 helps if energy is the problem.

Trading food for scrolling is the classic pattern. The medication quiets the food noise but the dopamine loop finds something else. Finding what fills that gap intentionally beats discovering it by accident.

Tirz as the primary with Reta as a boost layer is one of the common transition patterns. Keeping the Tirz dose higher makes sense if it is still working - the GIP dual mechanism fills a different role than Reta's GLP-1/glucagon triple action. Starting Reta at 1mg on top of an established Tirz...

Been on ozempic through my doctor with insurance for a year. Was pre-diabetic, on heart meds, on antidepressants. This brought me off all of it—no longer pre-diabetic. Now insurance says they won't pay unless I'm type 2, and they cover zero weight loss meds. Haven't had it since January...

Tested the two V2s and they worked perfectly. Dosing accuracy was solid. I tested with tap water and a used injector and syringe multiple times just to be sure—pretty OCD about it—and the mechanism does smooth out with use. Grabbed two from Canada for $30 each plus shipping. Haven't actually...

been on mounjaro seven months, down 70+ pounds, and my period just came back after two and a half years. thought it was early menopause. on 10mg for about four months now. curious if the injection is playing a part since being overweight definitely affects the cycle.

A1c down to 5.5 from 7.8 in four months! Blood glucose 92 an hour after a 200 cal protein drink. Going out to celebrate tonight. Question—has anyone had mounjaro auth rejected after blood sugar normalized? Insurance situation unclear, wondering if long-term's possible.

been splitting from the start of the ramp. now at 10 per week with two 5mg doses. works better than one big hit.

It's just the same as the priming squirt you do before the full dose, really.

I read something about using insulin syringes to extract the leftover dose. When I tried it, I failed but I'm sure I could try again. It was maybe 5 clicks worth.

Congrats on the weight loss, Salad_xo! What dose are you on? I've been on sema for 6 weeks and haven't dropped a pound yet, currently at 1mg.

Congratulations on your progress!

Maybe next time go for something a bit more... substantial? I'm just a little old-fashioned, I guess.

Amazing

I've dropped about 30 pounds already. Once I've shed another 40ish, maybe I'll treat myself to some new underwear like that! 😉

I almost thought the first photo was the after shot seeing how big the shirt was, waiting for the before. You didn't hold back with that second photo! Congrats on an AMAZING change!

Ozempic has turned me into a total square, ha! I don’t drink, don’t binge on junky food, and I barely smoke weed anymore. I take edibles only before sleeping - it all happened slowly. Now I'm just... sober.

This whole thread is motivating. I'm down 40 lbs and started lifting halfway through. Wish I had started day one. Anyone on the fence — just lift. Even 3 days a week makes a difference.

Thanks everyone for the info, makes me feel better about sticking to BAC!

I'd love to know more, that's new to me. What kind of peptides are you thinking of?
