I hit a plateau too. I've been stuck at the same weight for a while now. Maybe I need to re-evaluate my diet and exercise routine.

These medications can truly be life-changing. I'm glad to see so many people finding success with them. Have you had any issues with maintaining muscle mass during your weight loss, Skyler?

Congrats!!

You look great! I started in May and I've lost around 55lbs, but my belly fat won't go away! What's your secret?

Could you describe your dosing regimen throughout your progress?

That's a fantastic transformation. Major kudos to you. I'm officially envious... I want a flatter tummy now.

I am looking into peptides now. I'm in my early 50s, in good shape, but I'm finding my recovery is not what it needs to be. Joints and muscles are always sore. I'm curious if anyone has experience with any peptide sources?

I saw one provider mentioned in a YouTube comment recently, but I haven't ordered from them myself. Proceed with caution. That said, their prices seem reasonable for a domestic vial.

Be prepared to buy new clothes! That's where your savings will go!

Like SlowNSteady68 said... If you are extremely responsive and taking 3mg a week, you don't want a reconstituted vial sitting in your fridge for almost half a year.

I'm so happy I started this journey. I've been paying out of pocket, which is a worry now that I'm retired. My insurance won't cover it. But the improvements to my blood pressure and cholesterol are worth it. My doctor was about to put me on meds for both! Plus, I'm back at the gym, trying to...

Welcome, MedDad177! I'm starting today myself. Good luck to both of us!

I'm planning on starting tomorrow. I hope it does! I can't resist a good cookie 🙃

Congrats on your progress!!

An amazing achievement! Well done. What GLP-1 medication did you take and what dosage, if you don't mind sharing?

Alright, folks, I finally jumped in and got a vial of Reta (6mg) to start with microdosing. After reading a ton, I'm hoping this will help me drop around 10-15 pounds. My stats: 5'6", about 140 lbs. Like so many moms, I feel like I've kind of lost myself in motherhood. I used to be proud of...

It's really about punishing people. Herculean_Habits is right--some people think you have to earn being healthy by being "good," but only in the way the person judging you considers good, not in the way a medical professional does.

I needed to see this this evening. I just took my first shot and I feel guilty for not being able to conquer this alone.

It's because society still clings to the idea that obesity is a character flaw. They think you're weak-willed and undisciplined. In their minds, using Ozempic is an easy way out that prevents you from developing "true" self-control. It's complete garbage. These are often the same people who are...
