    GLP-1s: why diff results?

    Genetics and insulin resistance mostly. Wide variation is expected.

    GG Peps - Anyone Heard Of Them?

    Haven't seen GG Peps come up much here. The main things to check for any new vendor are long-term community track record and whether real users consistently vouch for them. Newer names without that history carry more risk.

    Stacking ALL the peptides?

    Adding to Reta - start with one thing at a time so you can tell what's doing what. BPC-157 gets a lot of positive mention here for recovery. What are you thinking of stacking?

    Starting sema - will 0.25 do anything?

    Just adding that I've seen people lose a significant amount on the starter doses. Someone on another forum lost 93 pounds on .25 without counting calories!

    Starting sema - will 0.25 do anything?

    I’m down about a dozen pounds in just over a week. My starting weight was 274. The food noise is mostly gone. I still get hungry, but I’m able to eat until I’m satisfied and then stop. I’m also eating mostly unprocessed foods. I’ve only had some constipation as a side effect.

    Starting sema - will 0.25 do anything?

    Generally, 0.25 mg is just an introductory dose for your body to get used to it, so a lot of people don't see HUGE changes in weight during the first month. The main thing at that level is to minimize any negative side effects. Some people will notice changes in appetite or drop a couple of...

    Hit One-derland!

    Always been anxious about everything but I'm worried it'll stop me from ordering. Went to buy peps once, paid, then got extreme anxiety and told them keep it. Wasted time and money and still wanted them. Now I have the funds again but there's this little voice saying I'll chicken out. Anyone...

    Down 60lbs -- Feeling Great!

    It's different for everyone. Some people have zero issues. Others have nausea or constipation. Stay hydrated and talk to your doctor about concerns. If you had a good diet before I wouldn't expect crazy results, as your diet is already good. But sema can help! Good luck!

    Day 5 and the monster is back

    It's freeing to not have to constantly think about food all day! I also find high-protein meals are super helpful for satiety.

    Went back down on my dose!?

    Yes, Reta_King363, you can! It's not officially supported, but you can count the clicks. For a 1mg pen, about 37 clicks is 0.5mg and like 18 clicks is 0.25mg. You might need to source extra needles eventually, though.

    Mounjaro woes - feeling defeated :(

    6 pounds a month is good! Try staying on 2.5mg. Only increase by a small amount when you need to or if you plateau for a month.

    I don’t see any loose skin. Your skin looks very firm! You look amazing.

    Went back down on my dose!?

    I agree with Minnie-the-Moocher - I've been on 2.5mg for half a year now. While my weight loss is slower than some, I've still lost about 15lbs. Going up to 5mg next week.

    Sema for just 20-30 lbs to lose?

    I was on 0.25mg for a month, then 0.5mg for two months. I didn't go any higher because it was working well and my doctor advised against it.

    Red spot at injection site - anyone else?

    I used to get this all the time, for me it was a slight allergic reaction that formed a few months after starting Mounjaro. It would get a little itchy, but it wasn't usually an issue. After a few more months the reaction stopped and I don't really get it now.

    Sema for just 20-30 lbs to lose?

    I was under the impression that semaglutide was only for those needing a huge transformation. I was told it wasn't suitable for me. I gained about 28 pounds from being a couch potato during the pandemic, drinking too much, getting older, and the stress of losing my mom. Fit friends and trainers...

    Red spot at injection site - anyone else?

    Hey ToneLady, this was happening to me for a while. My doctor thought it was a mild allergic reaction that can happen when the dosage changes. (Though I wasn't changing the dosage at the time! haha) She told me to take Zyrtec the day before, day of, and day after. I did that for like 6 weeks and...
