berrystrummer1122 If cagri does nothing for you after a decent trial, look at Elora instead. Nobody knows yet how it works if cagri gave little response or side effects, but as a whole it worked better for weight loss. Mine is very similar: 15 tirz, 6 reta, 0.5 cagri. None of the doses can go...

How many of us began with compounders? A friend who did not know better sent me to mine. A few people I talk to think one vial stretched over six months is fine with proper care. Honestly, tossing it all would be fine too, I just hate binning something that may still be safe. Thank you all for...

Mental clarity keeps me on this medicine more than weight loss, honestly. For years my head ran an exhausting background loop, tallying calories and haggling over snacks from morning to night, and it just stopped. Now I have room for other thoughts. Did it hit right away for you, or slowly?

My stack is Tirz 7.5mg on Friday, Reta 4mg on Monday, plus Cargi .250mg on Wednesday, newly added, as I work toward goal weight. Experimenting is definitely my thing. I want to learn which of GLP1, GIP, glucagon or amylin controls my obesity best for life. Everyone is different, so your result...

Metformin lowers glucose and A1C, but usually does little for weight loss. Stomach issues are reported on it, generally milder than on semaglutide. Frankly, if losing weight is the aim, semaglutide or tirzepatide by themselves beat it, and metformin only serves glucose control, which you do not...

You can always request a higher dose, but some self control helps too. Mounjaro makes eating a lot harder, not impossible. Snack urges still show up, you just feel full sooner. Feeling hungry when you truly are hungry is normal. I assume you ate very heavily before starting? Depending on your...

Two years on it, and I was recently off for three weeks, omg. I was shocked how much of a bottomless pit I felt like. My hunger is way higher off the meds! I also snack and drink wine at night, and that revved up during those weeks compared with steady dosing. The best comparison is...

It differs from the injectable. The pill needs to be taken with food, every day or nearly, for the full effect, and skipped doses mostly bring side effects without suppression. I tried every other day with the 3mg pills and ended up sick, with no loss at all. If you want intermittent use, choose...

Very interesting. I use cjc (no DAC) plus ipamorelin. Curious which protocol you run, and where you found it. I take 500mcg of each nightly, roughly thirty minutes before sleep, for 2-3 weeks now. My sleep is definitely better.

Adjusting to the Ozempic starter doses takes around 8 weeks, and most people have assorted symptoms in that window. Around the second month things settle. Some lose little until the key doses, 1.0mg and up. Be patient.

Hi! Took my first shot this past Friday. Was incredibly nervous too! Barely felt the needle at all. Saturday brought some nausea, a headache, and heavy fatigue, ended up napping twice. Felt exactly like a mild hangover. Eating and appetite stayed pretty normal though. Sunday was back to normal...

A year ago I posted nearly the same thing. Extreme fear of vomiting, and my prescription sat in a drawer for ages, I was so scared! Then one day I bit the bullet, because I felt awful physically. I also had anti-nausea tablets as a safety net, and decided on one shot only, never again if it did...

I probably would not increase if I was losing that much. I only increase when my loss stops.

GLPs are astonishing and we barely grasp how much they do. Research reports better liver, kidney and cardiovascular health, said to be independent of weight loss, hints of help against Alzheimers, and osteoarthritis pain relief that my rheumatologist is tracking with me, also independent of...

Picked some shares up a few months back and rode out the dip without selling. Sitting around 10 percent up now. My guess is the big institutions have already baked the retatrutide approval into the price, but I doubt regular retail investors have caught up yet. Also not convinced the...

What's a reasonable daily protein number to aim for? Struggling to make real progress here. Eating fairly clean overall, but a lot of the highest-protein foods just don't appeal to me. Been leaning on protein shakes, though I suspect I'm still falling short. Would appreciate any suggestions!

Personally not on board with bumping the dose just because the loss isn't fast enough. Like, a pound a week isn't enough so crank it up?!? I'm down around 135 pounds total at this point, roughly 80 of that from tirz. Started and mostly held at 2.5mg the whole time, aside from a couple months...

Slightly off topic, but I lose about a milligram per vial because I absolutely have to clear every last little air bubble out of the syringe, even though I know logically they're harmless. So I tap them all up to the top and push liquid out until every last one's cleared. Does anyone else bother...

Congrats! I'm on my second week myself, down a few pounds, and this genuinely feels like a miracle medication. Cravings and constant food thoughts are just gone, and I'm eating like an ordinary person again. Aiming for about a pound weekly to help minimize loose skin, slow and steady. Wishing...

Hey there, how's it going! 70 lbs gone in eight months is genuinely incredible work. Sounds like reta's really clicked for your body, especially given you're still seeing results even after dialing back from 12mg to 10mg. Adjusting the target from 200 down to 190 says plenty too. Once your body...
