Someone unkind after losing weight was probably already unkind. I've dropped around 75 pounds and get more attention from others. But I'm still the same understanding person I was before. Many never forget how it felt when they carried extra weight.

I can see the difference, congrats! Someone told me yesterday my face looks different, I think my collarbones are more prominent!

Amazing! Good for you!

I've been stuck myself for a while. I saw someone on Reddit mention perimenopause affecting their weight loss. I'm 49, and I wonder if that's part of what's going on with me. Have any of you experienced this? Someone mentioned trying a different medication, like Zepbound.

Good feeling, right?

Yes! Fantastic work! I seriously regret not taking before pics. I was so self-conscious back then. I've shed about 45 pounds, but I don't perceive the change as much as others do. Hindsight is 20/20, I guess.

Congratulations! I hope to be where you are soon!

Yep.

I thought you were going to talk about February. That's the real issue. Almost a month where sellers are on holiday and nothing gets made or sent.

I hear you inject-and-forget, the food noise is REAL. It's been so freeing to have it quiet down a bit. I've been focusing on protein-heavy meals and cutting way back on carbs. It's been a game changer for me!

I used my first compounded vial (wiping it before and after and keeping it in a sealed container in the fridge) for 3-4 months because I was microdosing! Then I used the second one that came with it!

I dose every 5 days. That's 15mg over 30 days at 2.5mg. If you're at 5mg on the same schedule, it's 30mg in 30 days. Also, I've never had Tirz go bad when refrigerated for up to two months. Just my experience!

I totally agree with Reta_King363. Dosage is so individual. What works for one person might not work for another. Listen to your body and work closely with your doctor to find the right dose for you.

Thanks everyone! It's not about looks, it's about feeling better in every way.

I agree with SparkleStacy_RX that consistent photos will REALLY show you the progress! Also, be kind to yourself during the journey.

Hi everyone! I'm feeling so incredibly grateful right now, and I wanted to share my story. Maybe it'll resonate with someone who's just beginning, thinking about starting, or feeling a little unsure. I was definitely there, scrolling through posts like this, wondering if things would ever change...

Absolutely a difference!

Huge difference! You're doing great.

Generic options are great for cost, but are they exactly the same? I've heard mixed reviews...

That's awesome Rory1977! It's so encouraging to hear success stories! I started Mounjaro back in December at 210 with an A1c of 7.4. Now I'm down to 175 and my A1c is 5.2. I've been at 5mg and don't plan on increasing it unless I start gaining again.
