so great!

Time for a wardrobe upgrade! That's a good problem to have.

Wow. I'm on week 7, and I don't think I've gotten anywhere.

Try a calcium carbonate antacid and lie on your left side for several hours. This is frequently recommended for heartburn. If you still feel unwell afterward, assess how you feel and do what you think is best.

Very solid summary. I want to reinforce the cardiovascular point. Mild increases in resting heart rate (5–10 bpm) are not unexpected with glucagon receptor activity. However, sustained tachycardia above 110–120 bpm at rest should not be dismissed. I would add: baseline blood pressure and...

It is true that some ghrelin substances may inhibit GLP-1 signaling, I think Taylor37 is on the right track. I'd recommend a full blood panel to examine hormone levels for a clearer picture.

Wow, we have a lot in common! I also started about 5 months ago. I'm taking 7mg of tirz and 4mg of reta, and I just ordered KLOW. I'm sorry to hear about your hunger, Shot-Ready. I'm never hungry, though I can always eat. I inject tirz on Friday mornings and reta on Monday mornings. Each week, I...

Haha, so glad this thread exists... I'm over a month in, and I used to love being cold... now I'm freezing haha

I only had a distinct chill for a few minutes the day after my first injection. This was months ago and it wasn't a big deal then, but I'm always cold anyway so if it had continued into the fall, it might have been a problem.

Yep, totally! I barely used my heat last winter, and I've already turned it on this year. I'm freezing for the first time ever it feels like!

Congrats!

Whoa, nearly a year after starting at 460? You're crushing it! Total admiration for being so open about your starting point. Looking forward to your update on the 14th. How are you feeling energy-wise compared to day one? Keep going!

Can you give more details about the vial(s)? What's the concentration? Is it one vial you've been using the whole time, or a multi-vial kit? Do you draw a dose, then freeze the rest until your next injection?

That's a good point, Sage12. I've been so focused on the scale, I haven't really paid attention to, like, how much easier it is to walk up stairs now.

Think of myself as a butterfly in a cocoon... all this work *is* healing me.

Good point. I need to think about the internal benefits and not just my appearance. Thanks, everyone!

I've lost 90 pounds. Still feel like garbage. Any advice?

I just started .5 this week and I can barely eat anything.

It's interesting how individual the experience is. I've been taking this for almost two years now and the weight loss has been pretty steady overall.

Even though I pay for my injections, it's basically costing me nothing because I'm saving so much on snacks and drinks!
