Interesting! I've been on 12.5mg of tirz for 4 months. I tried going up to 15mg, but the side effects, like exhaustion, were too much. So, I've stuck with 12.5mg because it's been effective at controlling appetite. Now, I'm annoyed by a plateau because I want to lose another 8 pounds before a...

Incredible transformation!

Hey Wise_Gal320, I haven't specifically tested A1c yet, but it's on my list for the next bloodwork panel. Good thought!

Sure thing! KetoToNovo If anyone wants to know anything else about my blood work or scans, just ask! And I'm 34, BTW.

Update time! One month later. I'm at 4.5mg Reta and 5mg triz. Another scan showed I'm down about 7 pounds. Still holding onto lean muscle while shedding fat.

Got my recent blood work back, and my T levels are still naturally high. Total T was 1040 ng/dL (range 120–810), and free T was 36 pg/mL (range 9–25). I think this is helping me hold onto muscle and feel energetic while losing weight. I'm taking 2 mg of Reta and 7.5 mg of Triz, plus a...

Plateaus are normal! My doctor calls them "body resetting weeks" which somehow kept me from getting discouraged.

You go, girl! 💪🎉🎉🎉

I totally get the food noise thing, It's amazing how much mental space is freed up when you're not constantly thinking about your next snack! It's like a whole new world opens up. Congrats again!

That's fantastic!

Congrats! Awesome job! Started in February around 320, but I had changed my eating habits in January. I managed to drop 5 pounds before my first dose. Since then it has been pretty easy. Like you, I'm amazed by the person I see in the mirror. It's not the old me. I was showing new friends pics...

Why stop there? There's always estrogen-progesterone-testosterone to play with. Not that I'd encourage anyone to add more vials. 😇

Wow, FitGirl, you're really inspiring me! I've had prediabetes and some heart issues, and I've been struggling to lose weight forever. I can work out and eat right, but I only lose like 20, maybe 25 pounds, and then I stall. Then I caught COVID and gained everything back within months 😬. Maybe I...

Congrats! You look fab. I used to dread amusement parks with my kids. I enjoyed the rides when I was younger, but after I gained the weight I'd avoid them because I was scared of not fitting. I was too ashamed to admit it, so I told them I was tired of rides. My husband went with them, and he...

Thanks again everyone! I really appreciate all the encouragement. I’ll keep that in mind! For now, things are still progressing at 0.5mg, but I’m aware that might need a bump eventually.

That’s fantastic! Have a great time and enjoy all the rides!

Thanks everyone for the support! It really helps to keep me going.

Hey everyone, I kicked off this thing on Jan 14, 2025, at 460 lbs. Now I'm chilling at 293 lbs and still dropping weight! I'm sticking with 0.5mg, which seems to be my go-to dose. I'm also sticking to a calorie-controlled diet and hitting around 10,000 steps every day.

That's awesome!! Congrats 🎉 you can even put the tray down comfortably!
