The health benefits track independently of whether anyone notices - metabolic markers and energy change before the visual does, and friends noticing tends to lag behind that too. Thirty pounds is real; the mirror lag is frustrating but temporary.

The app that comes up most here is Shotsy - it tracks injection schedules and dose history. Available in the UK and works for any injectable medication including MJ.

From 231 with a 218 first milestone, Onederland is closer than it looks - that 31-lb stretch tends to go faster than the first 60 because the metabolic efficiency improvements compound. Lowest adult weight is the real story, not the number itself.

Week 8 on Wegovy. Lifting 3 times a week and hitting heavier weight each week. Some light cardio too, but really focused on muscle gains—still have 79 to drop so I can do both at once. Can't tell you about marathons but the elliptical (5 miles daily before I started) didn't bother me. No side...

Ran a kit of SS-31 10mg with NAD+. Felt tired after shots, didn't realize till weeks later I wasn't as tired during the day. Ordered another kit for MOTSC + remaining NAD. Slow gradual improvement, not fireworks. I'm 40s, post-meno 8 years, take any boost and keep layering what works. 10/10...

been on mounjaro 2 years - started 296, now 195 at 42f. stuck below 190. doc added 500mg metformin xr once daily to help. took first pill yesterday + shot today. anyone else using this combo?

14 lbs in 4 months is solid—that's about 0.8 pound a week, the healthy range. People see the change before you do because you're losing face and belly fat first, which shows fast. From 208 to 194, you've lost 7% of your body weight, which is where your A1C and blood pressure start improving...

2 weeks in at 6mg, giving it 2 more weeks before bumping to 8mg. Then 4 more weeks before bringing back my other compound. Should be close to goal weight by then, then I'll dial down to whatever maintenance works.

I take it Thursday night before bed and it actually helps me sleep better. Kills my appetite for weekend cheating with friends. Saves me a ton eating out every weekend.

Thanks for posting this, Mike_02; it's really interesting. I've been on MJ for 5 weeks at 2.5mg. I have ASD, anxiety, and depression (which was okay before I started). I've noticed a huge improvement in my anxiety, mood, and sleep since starting. It's been life-changingly better. The part of my...

Regarding the GHK-Cu injection spot, I've heard some folks have success rotating injection sites to minimize localized reactions. Maybe try alternating between glutes and thighs?

Traveling with this stuff can be tricky. I read on Reddit about someone asking how to travel with sema since it needs to be refrigerated. Someone suggested those travel pouches for refrigerated meds that you activate with water.

It's probably true that GLP-1 meds will be linked to all sorts of health benefits. Easier to eat healthier, cut back on alcohol, and keep a healthy weight. All those things lower your chances of getting cancer.

Mike_02, thanks for sharing your story! I started Mounjaro at 2.5mg at the end of August 2025. Each month, my doctor increased my dose to 5mg, 7.5mg, and now 10mg. I couldn't lose weight before because of hyperinsulinemia and PCOS. I started at 304 pounds, and now I weigh 222 pounds! I've lost...

When you're starting out, doing it in the morning is smart in case there's some kind of safety issue. Like, if the concentration is off, or the water is contaminated or something. That's what I do. Once I've done a few injections from a cartridge, then I'm okay with evening or night injections.

I had the same problem, and pinning in my butt solved it for me.

I agree with MixBro, seeing visual change keeps you motivated. I've been on this path for a while, since late 2022, and hit a snag. But I'm back on track now!

Fantastic 👏🏾

The fact that you can joke about the activity part says you're doing better mentally than you realize. You've made awesome progress already. Slower doesn't mean stopped. Sometimes the scale is stubborn but the visual changes tell a different story. A three year difference is major, even if it...

You look fantastic! Keep up the amazing effort!
