That's amazing progress for one month! I hope I see similar results.

Keep it up! It's empowering when you see change is possible. Rooting for you on your health journey.

It's amazing how much less food I need now. I had a small portion of low-lactose cheese for lunch with some baby carrots. That small amount kept me feeling good all day.

I started back in November on a similar med. I'm at 1mg now. Just had my checkup. My A1c was 8.9 before, now it's 6.2! Also I'm down about 14 pounds. Side effects have been pretty minor. My doctor actually lowered my dosage for metformin and some of my blood pressure meds. Insurance is covering...

The reason to increase your dose is med tolerance, not merely weight reduction. You should stay ahead of the cravings during the titration phase, not lag behind them. You're playing catch-up now. You'll get there, but remember the core rule: titrate due to tolerance, not only for more weight loss.

I totally get that fear! After our denial, my husband and I looked into cheaper options. It's tough, but don't panic yet. There are options, even if they aren't ideal. Keep fighting for coverage!

I didn't realize how bad my nutrition was until I started reading these posts. I need to get back on track, but it's kind of overwhelming. I eat mostly Greek yogurt, peanut butter toast, and protein shakes. It's easy when I'm busy taking care of my kids.

You look great!

Our 'premium' insurance decided last year that GLP-1s are a no-go for everyone. My hubby has practically every risk factor going – high blood pressure, cholesterol, apnea, pre-diabetes. Denied, appealed, doctors swore he was perfect. Still no. Just wanted to say I feel your pain. This stinks.

That's very interesting. Like you, I'm also eating cold foods (I have to get those in first since nothing else sounds good). I have completely stopped eating fast food since it doesn't seem or look good anymore. Without the meds, all those cravings for cheese fries and burgers would come back...

I agree with Strong_Loop, consistency is key. Even a pound a week makes a huge difference over time.

Fantastic progress! Congratulations!

It's possible [mention=Nicky37], some people report anxiety with both BPC-157 and semaglutide. Everyone reacts differently to these meds.

Stick with it. Sounds like you're getting the hang of adjusting.

I've seen some things about sermorelin. Someone told me you need to take GHRP-2 or 6 with it to actually make it work? Is that true?

I've also been wondering about injecting AHK-CU subq. I seem to be losing a lot of hair lately and it was already pretty thin. I don't think I dropped weight too quickly. This has been happening for 3-4 months. If you learn anything, please share! I'm very interested in the results of injectable...

JuiceSet664 Thanks for sharing the details! It's helpful to know the timeline and dosage. Loose skin is a common concern. Some people find that incorporating strength training helps. Keep up the amazing work!

How long did this transformation take, and what dosage are you currently on? Congratulations on the amazing progress! 🎊

Chatting with your pharmacist is a great idea. Some people have zero issues, so don't stress too much! Pay attention to your body after eating. Talk to your doc about anti-nausea meds if you need 'em.

Tesamorelin can help with fatty liver, very similar to Ipamorelin, and commonly paired. Branded Tesamorelin (Egrifta) treats lipodystrophy in HIV patients. Ipamorelin helps with weight loss, too. Tesofensine, a serotonin and dopamine reuptake inhibitor, aids in weight loss. This combo is often...
