GoodRx or manufacturer assistance programs are worth checking before the card.

The last stretch is genuinely the hardest - 52kg down and 9kg left is a much smaller ratio than the motivation makes it feel. The dose bump takes a few weeks to register anyway, so the real task is bridging that window.

Getting to goal weight is a milestone but the more durable version is building the maintenance habits that let you stay there without constant active management - the first six months after goal are where that becomes automatic.

Restarted after a 6-month break and was surprised how much it felt like starting over again. The 0.5mg restart hit me almost as hard as my original 0.25mg ramp — nausea, food aversion, all of it back for about 10 days. Doc said this is normal and the body needs to re-acclimate. Worth knowing...

Thanks everybody for the replies! It's so validating to hear that I'm not alone in feeling this way. I like the idea of treating this like an experiment. It's less pressure that way lol.

Yesterday I took my first dose of 0.25 of Wegovy. The food chatter is lessening. It feels like I'm in a silent room. This sudden lack of mental noise is shockingly loud. I was at my desk earlier, and I knew I *should* have been preoccupied with food! Usually I'm planning my next meal...

I'm lucky that I haven't had any gas or sulfur burps from my medication. I took a small extra dose from some pens once and it was so gross!

I'm still stunned that one person had so much medication in their refrigerator! I guess if insurance covers it, why not stock up? I wish mine did, LOL.

Just gonna drop this here... that's BILLIONS. Eli Lilly had a killer 2025, with $65.2 billion in revenue (up 45% from 2024) and $20.6 billion in profit. The boost mainly came from diabetes and obesity drugs, especially Mounjaro and Zepbound, which made $36.5 billion together.

Woah, check this out: weight loss meds could be made super cheap, like three bucks a month, says a study! https://www.theguardian.com Apparently, some places don't have the same patent restrictions? Crazy.

It's been about a year using the medication. Docs are talking about maintenance dosages now. Feels weird.

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the support!

I've lost 180 pounds! Still working towards my ultimate goal. Feeling good!

Hey Lift_TBH. I think I'm going to try and stack them for a bit, and see how it goes. Will keep everyone updated!

Thanks, Checkup! Good to know. I'll definitely keep that in mind and probably go back to separate shots.

I've been using it for a month. Based on my smartwatch, my sleep quality score was better, and I spent more time in deep sleep compared to when I wasn't using it. I'm taking February off from all peptides except Reta and will probably start using it again in March.

I'm a 63 yo male. Last year, when my insurance stopped covering Mounjaro, I went down the peptide path. Found some sources online for research purposes. I've been using Tirz for about a year and two months now and have dropped nearly 80 pounds. I've been on 12.5mg for the past four months and...

Anyone have good experiences with a specific site? I've been using one I like, but I'm always open to trying new ones.

I'm lucky I haven't had any sulphur burps from my medication. I did try a small dose of semaglutide a couple of times and those were unpleasant!

Wow, this is so inspiring! I'm hoping to drop maybe 10-15 pounds to fit into my bikini better! It's so expensive though, how do you guys deal with the cost?
