    Weight loss drugs: Too $$?

    Some will, but most people can't afford that every month. People are really worried. I wish it wasn't so.

    Weight loss drugs: Too $$?

    They cost way too much! I read that it only costs about $5 to make a box of Ozempic ready to sell. If they're selling it for around $1,000, that's a 19,900% profit! What else has that kind of markup? It's awful to do that with medicine.

    7 Months on Mounjaro - Stall is OK!

    For anyone feeling discouraged, remember that some people are 'slow responders.' I read a post where someone didn't see results from similar medication for almost 3 months! But they stuck with it and now they're losing consistently. Don't give up hope! It might just take longer for your body to...

    You look fantastic! Congrats! Thanks for sharing; it gives hope to a F40 who's been overweight her whole life and struggles with binging.

    GLP-1 patches finally happening?

    That's terrible. I'm sorry to hear that. The cost of healthcare is truly ridiculous. I really hope generics are available quickly for diabetics AND people struggling with obesity, for whom these drugs are truly life changing.

    Scale Victory! Now what about these arms?

    Targeted fat loss isn't really a thing. Some of us just have stubborn areas that lose fat last. I tend to accumulate fat around my midsection first. Your arms *will* get smaller, just be patient.

    GLP-1 patches finally happening?

    SubQ is the way to go! I really enjoy the process of injecting. It's kind of fun.

    Ozempic Journey - Body Image Issues?

    Thanks! I can relate to that milestone feeling. Used to be the chubby kid, then got in shape, and COVID kinda wrecked it... so happy to be getting back on track.

    It's the little things... I realized I can cross my legs comfortably *everywhere* now! Things I couldn't do for years. So happy about it.

    Tirzepatide messing with my stomach :(

    FYI, if you're still having constipation, some people find that sugar-free candy will get things moving again. Sugar alcohols are known to have a laxative effect and some other sugar substitutes act similarly.

    Ozempic Journey - Body Image Issues?

    It's wild. I still need to drop about 55 pounds before my BMI isn't considered obese. I'm pretty sure I've got body dysmorphia. I started on semaglutide back in March and I'm down around 65 pounds.

    Seriously two different humans. Would not be able to pick them out if in court...

    Tirzepatide messing with my stomach :(

    It's possible that next shot will make it worse. I had a really bad bout of diarrhea that made me faint and crack my head on the sink. I ended up calling 911. I had a virus on top of it. But since I never had that kind of thing happen to me before turning 50, I think the Zepbound played a part.

    1 year on! Down 60+ lbs!

    KEEP GOING! The exhaustion and sickness nearly conquered me when increasing dosages, but check me out! A trip around the sun, zero adverse effects, and consistent monthly fat loss!

    Tirzapeptide concentration over time?

    I've been seeing chatter about people staying on a dose until they plateau...like Lean_Set. Is that what most people are doing? Like staying on 0.5mg for a month or two?
