Thanks for the info! I'm having the opposite problem. Sometimes it's super uncomfortable, and stool softeners and natural remedies don't work.

Honestly, a fast food trip might be more effective... and tastier.

I saw someone asking about how to adjust doses on the green pen… please, just talk to your doctor before making ANY changes. It’s not worth the risk.

I hope everyone reads this thread carefully.

I've been lurking here since I began treatment over two years ago and have now switched to a different medication that works better for me. As a nurse, I'm seriously worried about the number of posts I see daily about people changing their dosages without talking to their doctors, using...

Hey Robin_72, that's great progress in 3 months! Remember to focus on protein and fiber. It really helps.

HUGE CONGRATS!! I'm glad to observe you didnt have hair loss ( Love your hair) :)

Incredible work!

This is so helpful! I totally get it now. Thank you!

Thank you, I will!

Okay, I'm really trying to get this down! Could someone double-check my thinking on semaglutide dosages? I feel silly asking, but I'm nervous about getting it wrong. I received a sample of sema, which is a 5mg vial, and was told to start with a 0.02mg (that's 20 units on my syringe) injection...

I totally agree with MyBro, you look happier. It's not just about the pounds lost, it's the overall well-being. Do you track your progress with an app or anything?

That is unbelievably awesome.

Yes, I do. Tirz, Reta, and Cagrilintide are different from Semaglutide. The three newer peptides stop food noise and cravings very well. Semaglutide causes strong gastroparesis, which creates a physical barrier to eating much. I think you could overeat on Reta without being hungry. That would...

Retatrutide gives better appetite suppression than Tirzepatide. Reta isn't as strong as Semaglutide or Cagrilintide, but it's better than Tirz. Reta isn't like Adderall. It doesn't give you a 'boost', but it also doesn't cause fatigue. I used to need an afternoon nap on Tirz. I don't need one...

Retatrutide is better in every way, for me. I wanted to try stacking 2.5mg of Reta with 7.5-10mg of Tirz. Quickly, it became clear that Reta was doing all the work, so I switched to Reta and like it!

Peptide users need to be financial whizzes now!

Guilty!

Speaking of health, I've seen a lot of talk lately about GLP-1s and libido. I found a good podcast by the ISSM about treatments for low desire in both men and women. Might be worth a listen if anyone is struggling with that side effect.

You've been consistent, reliable, and always knowledgeable. Thanks so much!
