    Lost 130+ lbs – my GLP-1 journey

    I find your experience truly motivating. Well done! You're looking great. I'm in a similar boat, started at 352 lbs in Sept 2023 and currently weigh 268, age 61. Started on a GLP-1 in Dec 2024. Still working towards my goal, but stories like yours reassure me that it's not only possible but...

    Lost 130+ lbs – my GLP-1 journey

    Back in 2018, I was tipping the scales at 340 pounds and rocking a 54-inch waist. Fast forward to 2021, and my doc was like, 'Dude, heart attack imminent.' Type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease had moved in. Couldn't even bend over to deal with my shoes and socks. Started on a GLP-1 med...

    Back/hip pain on Tirz - anyone else?

    I'm 38, and been dealing with this since I was teenager. I was just diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis last year. Been on tirz for a year with no anti-inflammatory help. My blood markers were pretty high when I got tested. Now I'm on a biologic to slow progression, and it's helping my...

    Back/hip pain on Tirz - anyone else?

    I read a tip somewhere and it helped almost instantly! I was already drinking lots of water, but now I'm adding electrolytes to every glass. Woke up without any pain the next day, first time in months. Pinch of sea salt and some lemon drops in every glass of water really helped.

    Back/hip pain on Tirz - anyone else?

    Hey everyone, new here! Been on Tirz since last fall, and was really hoping I'd see the inflammation improvements that others are experiencing. I'm not convinced it's related, but my doc can't see me till next month. Pretty sure it's arthritis acting up. I've been digging around the forum for...

    Off Ozempic a year - still shrinking!

    It's still pretty new to me, but I'd say focus on small, sustainable changes. Don't try to overhaul everything at once. And don't beat yourself up if you slip up – just get back on track the next day!

    Tirz first-timer q's - am I doing this rite?

    Getting that buzzing-under-the-skin sensation and weird goosebumps timing. Panicked at first thinking histamine but it seems separate. Antihistamines, workouts and sauna help the most. Curious what else has worked for people.

    Off Ozempic a year - still shrinking!

    Hey everyone, happy almost Turkey Day! I felt like sharing some good news and hoping others will chime in with their wins, too, because it's inspiring seeing everyone's success! You're all so supportive, it's awesome! I was on Ozempic from last January to September and since stopping, I've...

    Tip your PT?

    I just bought a treadmill! I don't know how much to use it each day. Any suggestions?

    Tip your PT?

    I don't know a lot about etiquette, but I wouldn't tip unless prices were really low.

    Tip your PT?

    I saw one once a week. Unless you need someone for accountability, just take a few exercise classes and learn yourself. It's cheaper after a while and you'll learn stuff forever.

    Tip your PT?

    A lot of employers subsidize fitness classes and trainers for employees, so it's not always a rich person thing.

    Tip your PT?

    I recall that at Christmas, it was normal to give a tip to a trainer you'd worked with for a while... but that was 15 years ago, and literally only at Christmas.
