Wow... Drew_19 I have very similar starting stats, but I'm struggling to get past 295. Any advice?

Hey everyone! Started back in September around 330 lbs while taking Metformin, glipizide, and another med. Today I'm at 248.5 and only on metformin! Started at .25, went up to 2mg by January, and have been maintaining that dose since. I'm aiming for under 2200 calories daily and getting between...

My fridge is mostly condiments these days lol. Joking... mostly. Greek yogurt, chicken breast, fruit... I'm trying New_Pal!

Thanks everyone for the kind words! I want to add that semaglutide affects everyone differently. I know it's tempting to think of it as a quick fix, but it's really just a tool you can use to help yourself.

Thanks everyone!

After eighteen months on semaglutide with pretty mediocre outcomes compared to what I read online, I decided to be more proactive about getting healthy. I'm still taking the medication, but I've completely overhauled my diet, exercise, and sleep. I still have a little ways to go, but I'm sharing...

You look amazing! I'm still working towards my goal (down nearly 40, aiming for 50), but honestly, I'd be okay where I am now. It's remarkable how much of a difference it makes for us shorter folks. Congrats!

That dress is stunning on you!

I saw someone say they just got their prescription for $200 with a coupon. Prices are dropping!

There are YouTube videos to learn everything. Watch a few.

If it was 300 it'd be completely fine, I'd buy it.

Honey, you think the US is a normal first-world country *at all* when it comes to healthcare?

I haven't found solid info about GLP-1s dissolving slowly. I suspect it comes from variations in the type of bulking agent used, or how it's processed. If you've seen the vials that contain ONLY the lyophilized peptide, you know that most of the 'puck' is just filler. It seems unlikely that the...

You know it's true!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Good advice!

I'm no chemist, so I have no idea. Is that common in prepared peptides? Can you explain why you think that's the case, GymGirl?

Which rep told you that, GymGirl? Can you give me his name? Stinging caused by tirzepatide shouldn't be a common thing, and that's an inaccurate and unacceptable answer. Persistent stinging at the injection site is more likely from reconstitution solution that isn't properly pH-balanced...

That sounds super annoying and stressful! I hope you can get some money back.

Haha! That's awesome!!

Thank you!!! It's so weird to be at this weight again. It's been close to 3 decades. Loving the journey.
