Since you're 'restarting,' your past experience is probably the best indicator. But everyone reacts differently. For me, it was a few hours after my first 2.5mg of tirz.

Another tall woman! I also started around 190 lbs at 6 ft. I haven't lost a lot yet. My target is 170 lbs. I have a good amount of muscle mass.

Great progress! Congratulations.

I didn't notice water weight loss on the low doses, but also no fat weight loss until I was on a higher dose. I've switched to Monjaro and noticed a significant difference.

I get it. Check out some dedicated online forums. Some folks share independent testing to prove the quality from various sources. There are many workarounds to get GLP-1s.

You look amazing! You should be very proud of yourself!

Yeah, echoing what others have said, over 3lbs a week is FAST. And you kept titrating up aggressively which tanked your calories. Unless you were using other hormones, I'm not sure why you thought you'd keep muscle. There are different ways to approach this, but following the trial titration...

It often starts working better around 1mg...

That's why a lot of people explore other avenues. If you decide to go that route, do your research. There are online forums dedicated to GLP-1 medications where users share their experiences and findings. Some even do independent lab tests to verify quality. Just be careful.

Congrats!!! And, on a completely unrelated note, that pair of pants in the last photo are fabulous!

Congrats! 🎉

Down from 225 to 170, starting maintenance dosing this week.

I know that feeling! It's such a relief. I also find that I'm not craving junk food as much, which makes it easier to stick to a healthy diet.

When I see posts like this, I just want to cry happy tears for you. I know what a big shift this is for you and what possibilities it opens up. I'm so happy for you. It also makes me feel sad that more people can't get access to these medications. They really do turn lives around. I know it...

I saw someone else post on here on Reddit that they hit their goal weight after about 10 months. Started at 155lbs and got down to 104.6lbs. Height was 5'0". Said maintenance is gonna be interesting!

Almost a year! Fantastic job, friend!

Big congrats! Great job. Keep it up!

There's some interesting research coming out about GLP-1s and cancer risk, too. A study looked at older men and found that pre-diagnosis use of weight loss meds actually reduced the incidence of prostate, colorectal, and male breast cancers. More research is needed, but it's promising.

Exactly...

For those considering stopping, remember that many people regain the weight. One study showed that a large percentage gain all or more back within a few years. Long-term success requires serious, sustainable lifestyle changes.
