    Heads up, folks - the FDA's sending warning letters to a couple of online places selling semaglutide and tirzepatide for weight loss without approval. www.foxnews.com www.fda.gov www.fda.gov

    Mounjaro > Ozempic?

    Thanks for sharing that story. I was originally prescribed Ozempic but held off because of the side effects I read about, and then my doc suggested Mounjaro, saying it has fewer side effects. I can't compare since I didn't take Oz, but it's good to know I made the right decision. Thanks!

    Mounjaro > Ozempic?

    Fingers crossed it keeps working for you! Ozempic gave me a terrible diverticulitis flare-up last year, so I had to stop. My doc suggested Mounjaro, and I've been on it for about 7 weeks now with no issues so far. Hoping you have the same luck with Mounjaro!

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    Inspections and seizures are way up even though suppliers aren't labeling packages properly. But I like your optimism.

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    Everything is under tariff now, so everything is potentially subject to inspection.

    Tirz plateau - switch to reta?

    I'm sure that's true for some people. I'm too lazy to take anything regularly besides GLPs. My addictions are mostly digital, haha. Another reason I like kratom is that it helps reduce my appetite a bit. It's also cheap. I got four different types, 1,000 capsules total (500 grams), for $44...

    Tirz plateau - switch to reta?

    Exactly. Reta has made me like tirz even more. I'm going to be hoarding tirz now. Maybe 6+ mg of reta will be great for me. But getting there is no fun. I had some stomach issues with higher tirz doses, but I've figured out how to manage them better now. Like using kratom to prevent diarrhea...

    Tirz plateau - switch to reta?

    Some pizza joints still have them. I basically have to stack reta since it's not really doing anything for me at 2mg.

    GLP-1 tariff wars?

    They do make them in India, but it's more expensive than getting them from China, from what I've seen. It's almost the same price as buying from US sources.

    Tirz plateau - switch to reta?

    2mg of reta is good if you're planning on going to an all-you-can-eat buffet.

    Switching from Sema to Reta...any advice?

    I switched from Wegovy at 2.5mg straight to Zepbound at 2.5mg. The Wegovy didn't do anything for me except it made me really crave sugar and carbs. Hopefully Zepbound will change things!

    Gasp! Who's that in the mirror?

    I had a similar moment yesterday during my workout class; it was so weird seeing myself. Congrats on all the progress!

    Track your measurements; the change is clear, but measurements can help you visualize it better. Congrats and all the best on your journey ♥️

    Down a bunch of weight... Now what?

    Yeah, it makes sense. Honestly, it's tough to tell. A doctor can probably give you a better idea. I decided to pass on surgery myself.

    Down a bunch of weight... Now what?

    59F, dropped 85 lbs, started spring of '23. Most of it came off the first year. The last ten pounds took *forever*. I'd like to lose twenty more, but I'm good with my body now, so no biggie if it doesn't happen. I've got extra skin, mostly around my middle, and a little on my upper arms. I'm...

    Down a bunch of weight... Now what?

    Well, this is me now. Eighty-some pounds gone, and honestly, I'd do it all over again. People wanna know if this'll happen to them. More than likely, yeah.
