Definitely not dumb. Its a real victory

Down from 300 to a much lower weight. Not quite there but I was able to wrap a regular towel AROUND MYSELF. I know this sounds silly but its a huge thing for me.

I'm only a few weeks into my GLP-1 journey but I'm finding that I can barely stomach any protein or fat. Only very plain, bland things. And sweet things, not savory. Toast with jam, oatmeal, bananas. Anybody else feel like this? All I can handle right now is steamed tofu and protein smoothies.

Exactly, Gene_Chick576. They feel too heavy and not-real now. I find that I'm ok with just a small portion of dessert if I want something sweet. In general, those really dense foods aren't as appealing. I prefer fruits and veggies. Meat is something I eat less of, which is why I need those...

This article in the Times today https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/27/business/david-protein-bars.html got me thinking... Since starting on a GLP1 back in spring, I've completely lost the need for protein bars. Before, I'd have one almost every day. Now, I only reach for one if I'm out and about...

Some weeks, waiting the 6 days is fine, but not this week. Looks like I'll take it tomorrow instead of Wednesday. Thanks for explaining it so clearly!

I've been injecting tirzepatide every 6 days, but some weeks I feel like I need it on day 5. Does it matter if I take it on day 5 one week and day 6 the next if needed?

I saw someone on Reddit mention they're doing 'hungry days' after eating a ton the day before. Seems like a good way to stay on track!

I actually stopped taking it after my first dose... I couldn't deal with the constipation

Too many truths here. I can't!! 🤣

So true!!! She nailed it!! All my skinny friends are hating!

That's awesome! You had a big head start. You lost a lot of weight over a long time just from eating better and exercising. The medication was just icing on the cake! Congrats!

LOL "that's all they have" is so true!

Awesome news! Keep crushing it!

Great job! Congrats on all your hard work!

You look amazing! Congrats 🥳🍾🥂👍🎉🥳🏅🏅🏅 Such a fantastic achievement, 74 lbs is incredible!

Finish what you have, you're still dropping lbs. People also mention reta fatigue, so it might be even worse than what you're feeling now.

This is super helpful, thank you. Newbie question: I normally take thyroid meds and blood pressure meds first thing. Would that mean I have to stagger everything? That part seems complicated compared to just doing a weekly shot.
