I'm 65 and shed about 30 pounds. At this point in my life, I'm not interested in any surgical procedures for aesthetics. My loose skin is just part of the journey!

That's huge, congrats on both milestones! I had the same experience getting under 200 while using a GLP-1. It's a fantastic feeling, isn't it?

Keep going! Even slow progress is still progress. I've been on semaglutide for several months and the weight loss has been steady, if not super fast.

Congratulations!

Wonderful, enjoy your new life xx

That's really close to my stats! I started around 350, now I'm 280 and hoping to reach 180.

That's amazing! I know exactly how you feel! Hitting under 300 was the best! Now I'm working on getting under 200!

New_Lean, there are peptide calculators online that can help you figure out the right amount of water to use. I found this one really useful: https://peptidescalculator.com/ You enter the peptide amount, the volume of water you're using, and it tells you how much each injection unit contains...

I totally get that, Casey1990. It can be a bit intimidating at first. If you're using bac water and still having trouble dissolving it, make sure the bac water is sterile and bacteriostatic. Also, sometimes gently warming the vial (like holding it in your hand) can help the powder dissolve more...

I'm trying to lose weight slowly to avoid loose skin. It's taken me over a year to lose those 50+ pounds, and I'm okay with that. I've got some arm wrinkles, but nothing major.

It's taken me a year and a bit to shed around 55 lbs! How are folks dropping so much weight so fast?! I'm aware age plays a role, along with menopause and possible thyroid probs. But I'm happy to report my A1C is now 5.6.

I've been researching Retatrutide, and it's interesting how it works on multiple receptors. I had terrible nausea on Semaglutide but am cautiously optimistic about this one.

I've read that Retatrutide can cause appetite suppression. Maybe you're not eating enough fiber to keep things moving, CoolMom559. That 'full' feeling could be a sign of constipation.

I've heard that switching meds can help with side effects. Some people find Zepbound or Mounjaro easier to tolerate than semaglutide. It's worth discussing with your doctor if you're having problems.

I'm so happy for you!

I was a nurse in quite a few jobs before I found a place that's better, but these things still happen. I visit people at their homes. A confused patient got a package with a handgun, and his daughter took it before he hurt them or me. I still get treated badly, just less often. It happens when...

I think you're right, and I'm skeptical about the future. I've seen so much death and pain that nobody cares about. Corporations run everything, and there's nothing we can do. I work for a good healthcare system, but it's still about money. People get hurt and it's ignored. Employees get abused...

It's like watching a brawl erupt at a white collar convention out of nowhere! I'm just sitting back with my peptides, watching the chaos unfold. Honestly, I don't even care who prevails anymore. It's purely for entertainment at this point.

Three photos of a very beautiful person. Your progress is really motivating!

You're looking fabulous!
