I didn’t have a ton of weight to lose but it really did help lessen cravings and calm inflammation.

Hi all. I (41f, 6' 1", 315lbs) was just prescribed .25mg Ozempic this week and took my first dose 2 nights ago. My doctor prescribed it for T2 Diabetes. I’m also taking Metformin 2000mg daily, which I’ve been doing for over a year. For the past 48 hours, I’ve had zero appetite. I feel hunger...

Maybe try not relying on motivation so much. I’m over a year into this process and I basically just force myself to do the steps, day after day. Motivation is just a bonus if I happen to have it.

Had my 2nd injection yesterday, and I'm really struggling to even drink a liter of water 😭

This is a pretty typical complaint I hear about these meds. The appetite suppression is amazing for losing weight, but it can also kill your motivation for food and working out. If you're not getting enough calories, it makes sense that your drive to train would diminish. If you're feeling...

Best of luck on your journey! I'm ten months in and down about 40 lbs. It affects everyone differently, but most people see some kind of results.

Same. I'm open about using tirz at work, and people tell me what they're on. If they're on sema, I think they haven't read about tirz. Why would anyone be on sema when tirz exists? Some people have good results with sema with few side effects, but I hear about how sema doesn't work well and has...

I think if Tirzepatide is working, you should stick with it. The only exception might be if you have side effects you want to deal with, or if you want to try a single vial of reta to see if it works for you, so you can stock up in case it's good for you in the future. Tirzepatide has gone...

Pens are way easier for travel and the needle anxiety is real for a lot of us. The syringe waste adds up fast too. Havent found much advantage between models personally.

You look fantastic! It's also great to see the support in this forum.

You worked hard and it shows!

I don't have a problem with needles, but some people do and won't 'just try it'.

Like I said, Kelly1976, some people are scared of needles. It could also be a good maintenance option. It might work for people who want to lose 8-15% of their weight. Won't work for me - need to lose more. But oral GLP's will be big.

Some people don't like needles.

I'd much rather take a shot once a week than a pill every day.

Maybe that's why my carpal tunnel has been acting up lately. I started sermorelin about a month ago.

I'm planning to test orforglipron next year. Orals could be good for maintaining after hitting goals with injections. Also good for people who are just overweight, but injections will still be king.

Would love to see a comparison of this to orforglipron. At 25mg each day, they have to use a lot of GLP-1 to match the effects. It's dosed like Rybelsus, which makes me think it's just a bigger dose.

Looking great! Very motivational, gives me encouragement.
