    JKL peps - anyone try them?

    I'll just say that I won't order from them. I can message you privately if needed, but I'm staying away from them.

    JKL peps - anyone try them?

    Never used them myself. Let me know how it goes. I've tried a few of these vendors. I had issues with a vendor their name contains a word synonymous with "same" perhaps its best to be avoided

    Just remember to keep up with the protein to help build that muscle during recomposition! Protein is KEY!

    Ozempic and Vomiting: How Scared Should I Be?

    The only time I felt a little nauseous was for the first few days. I just felt "off." After that, even when the dose was increased (I’m at 2mg currently) it doesn't bother me. Constipation is the bigger issue and requires more effort (water, prunes, fiber). Most likely you'll be fine!

    Ozempic and Vomiting: How Scared Should I Be?

    At first, I was nauseous and threw up sometimes, and couldn’t figure it out. Then I realized I hadn’t changed my eating habits to get enough protein. I was still eating my low-calorie diet. My friend told me to track my protein intake and aim for 120g. I haven’t been sick since. And I've started...

    Shrinking but scale stuck?

    Body recomposition! It can feel weird if you've never gone through it. If you're lifting weights and eating enough protein during all of this, despite any other dietary issues, you're likely experiencing body recomposition. Muscle is heavier than fat, so as you get smaller but leaner, the scale...

    Tirzepatide + Cannabis - Anyone else?

    No, I haven't had that issue. I use cannabis pretty often, and I don't really get the munchies anyway. It just helps with my discomfort and elevates my mood. I haven't seen any changes, personally. Maybe you just need MORE cannabis! Kidding, I think.

    It's just amazing how these Glp1's seem to help people in so many ways.

    GLP-1s fixing knees?!

    Agreed 100%! When I read the earlier study and realized Novo funded it, my first thought was, "Well, duh!" They could have funded a study showing that GLP1s make your pants smaller!

    GLP-1s fixing knees?!

    I've been on this for around 9 months now, and I've lost about 50 pounds. My BMI went under 26 recently. My body fat dropped from 26% to 18.5%, and I gained muscle at the same time. Here's what's happened: * Sleep Apnea - No more CPAP * Afib - No more meds * OA - No pain or weakness, just a...

    GLP-1s fixing knees?!

    I think there's a huge difference between the studies, Heal-Fam. The one you linked (funded by Novo) links weight loss to OA improvement. That's not surprising because everyone always says that for every pound you lose, you take about 4 pounds of pressure off your knees. So weight loss = less...

    Reta transition woes?

    Thanks everyone for the input! I'm hoping the food noise settles down soon. I'm trying to focus on protein and stay hydrated.

    Down 70lbs - now what?

    I agree with Alex_2001, building muscle is so important especially after losing a lot of weight. It protects your bones and helps regulate your metabolism. Plus it can fill out some of that loose skin a bit.

    Down 70lbs - now what?

    You carried that 70 pounds so well! You barely had a tummy! Your face is snatched!

    Reta transition woes?

    Just pinned my first 2.5mg dose of Reta today. My last 10mg shot of Mounjaro was about 5 days ago. Anyone else experience a temporary increase in cravings when switching over, before the Reta really kicks in?

    Down 70lbs - now what?

    You look wonderful! If you're thinking about a tummy tuck because of loose skin, I think you'd be happy with the results without losing more weight. At 125, you really don't need to. I had a tummy tuck after losing around 70 pounds (went from about 280 to 215) and it totally reshaped me.

    GLP-1s: real talk, real life

    As someone in cardiometabolic medicine, I appreciate how balanced this is. To add: the cardiovascular outcome data for certain GLP-1 agents show reduction in major adverse cardiac events in high-risk patients. This is not cosmetic medicine. For many, it is risk modification. Also, for patients...

    Generic Ozempic in Canada - Coming Soon?

    That's a really good question. My insurance is already fighting me on brand name, so I'm not optimistic.
