ya know, 1mg on a first dose with just some stomach rumbling and nausea is actually in the normal range. the appetite suppression piece can take a couple more doses to really lock in. that nausea signal is the medication doing something - gonna be curious to see what week 2 looks like for you.

the stellar mental health prerequisite that would filter out most of the people who actually need these medications is a real tension. y'all who used food as a primary coping mechanism and then had that mechanism change - the medication did its job, now the work is figuring out what fills that...

yeah the reflux showing up at 4mg and fatty foods as the main trigger is the same pattern at a higher dose. the OP at .25 is early but reflux can show up at any level for some people. fatty foods and big portions are the two things that tend to make it worse regardless of dose. gonna be worth...

definitely not just you, ya know? the frequency and intensity changes at the new dose are well documented and come up pretty consistently at the 7.5mg transition. the body takes a few weeks to settle at each level. gonna get easier once the adjustment period passes.

y'all that day 1-3 no appetite then day 4-5 hunger coming back pattern is literally what most people experience their first week. it doesn't mean the medication stopped working, it means you're still ramping. gonna look a lot different at week 5 on a consistent dose than at day 5.

gonna be real - finding what works and actually sticking with it is the whole battle, ya know? the OP's point about people only talking about food is so true. there's the whole other side of what these meds do to how you feel day to day that doesn't get posted about nearly as much. glad you've...

the multi-ingredient protein powders with proprietary blends are harder to evaluate than simple formulations - you cannot verify the dose of each ingredient independently, and some of the included compounds have very different optimal quantities that may not match what the blend contains...

almost to goal with a split dose on tirz and lifting for 2 years without losing muscle is the result you want y'all to see when planning a stack. the tirz doing the weight loss work while lifting protects the muscle is basically the optimal setup before adding ipamorelin/cjc. wanna know what...

glad you found it too, ya know? week 5 of 1mg and the food noise coming back is basically the classic titration signal. gonna sound familiar to a lot of people here - the suppression effect tends to be strongest the first few weeks at a dose and then the body adjusts. moving up at that point is...

The afternoon fatigue on Reta in the early weeks is one of the most consistent reports. The narcolepsy feeling front-loads in the first 2-4 weeks then settles significantly. Pinning time affects it: morning injection means the fatigue peak hits daytime; evening pins shift the worst of it closer...

Metformin plus MJ has supporting data. The insulin sensitization effect adds something beyond what tirz does alone.

The resources piece is one of the most underrated parts of sharing a journey like this - other people in the right places at the right time can completely change the trajectory. Progress that specific and that visible is motivating in both directions.

Hey Quirky_Goals, have you noticed any changes in your face? I think my face looks slimmer and more defined already.

Yesss girl!! I had my 6th dose a couple of days ago and I'm already down 13 pounds. So glad your boyfriend is so supportive, it makes a difference when you have that encouraging voice!

first injection is tomorrow and I'm freaking out. ate pasta and breadsticks tonight and now I'm wondering if that's gonna wreck me. it's like 24 hours out from injection time. starting at 0.25 and took the weekend plus monday off work just in case. trying not to talk myself out of this - been...

VO2 max work sounds intense. Before I started, hard swimming + insulin resistance = carb cravings and weight gain. Might not be your issue but intense cardio wrecked me when I was still carrying weight and resistant. In active loss, I dialed way back on exercise to eat less easier. BMI 30 to 24...

I'm coming up on my 2 year anniversary on Mounjaro. Started at 220, now at 165. It's been a journey!

How long has it taken you to lose?

was 358 when i started in february at 2.5mg, took it before bed and had to force myself to eat the next couple days. felt it hard for over 48 hours, then some for 6 days. now at 7.5mg and down 25ish pounds, don't feel it till day 3 or 4 and it only lasts a day or two.

And you look much healthier now! Congrats, keep it up!
