    GLP-1 and insomnia?

    Worth considering the timing of your injections as well. Some report better sleep if they inject in the morning rather than at night.

    Switching injection sites - worth it?

    Switching to injection pens beats syringes hands down. Every time you fill a syringe you're poking the rubber stopper which dulls the needle tip gradually. With a pen, the business end stays sharp and fresh every single time you use it.

    BPC/TB Blend or Separate?

    I prefer taking them individually. I do 250mcg of BPC two times a day, injected close to where it hurts. Right now, I'm injecting it into the lower part of my tricep for an elbow issue. And I inject 2mg of TB under the skin of my stomach every other day. With a mixture, you're limited in how you...

    GLP-1 and insomnia?

    I've heard of people having sleep disturbances on GLP-1s, possibly due to blood sugar fluctuations. Have you tried a continuous glucose monitor to see if that's a factor?

    I hit my goal!! (Twice!)

    I remember being over 200 pounds for almost a decade. It's emotional to see that number shrink. I've lost nearly 100 pounds. I stepped on the scale and cried tears of joy.

    Good EU source for bac water?

    There's an EU supplier that sells a reputable brand. Any other bac water might as well be tap water, for all I care.

    I hit my goal!! (Twice!)

    It's been hard for me. Being thin until 35, then becoming very overweight over the next 2 decades. I never felt good or accepted the weight. It affected my self-esteem. Being thinner has helped some, but the last 20 years took a toll.

    Hit my goal, still losing?!

    It's interesting how body image changes during weight loss. Sometimes our brains don't catch up with the physical changes, and it can be a mind trip.
