Switching from tirz to Reta at 20+ lbs is a valid checkpoint - if tolerability is fine and loss is continuing, there's no urgency to switch. Reta's triple agonism typically shifts fat distribution more aggressively.

BD and Easy Touch both run sharp at 31g - the sharpness gap between brands at equivalent gauge is smaller than people expect.

Three months to a full A1C point is the result 5mg is calibrated for.

Is this just in the UK or also in India? I've only started Mounjaro a few months ago, and they are already so costly 😭.

I'd love to try it out! I just started the medication, so this could be a really helpful resource for me right now. Thanks!

I went out to dinner with my family and ate a ton of pasta, pizza, and fried appetizers and I had the worst stomach upset ever. Still feeling the effects a day later.

Actually, I think you're wrong about the math. It's actually a 20% drop in total meds. That means you'll need about 25% more medicine, costing an extra 25%. Think about it like this: you paid for 4 units but got 5. Now you're paying for one more. If you pay about $400 a month, it may be closer...

Drink a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. It helps to lubricate everything.

Shilajit & creatine!!!! Especially good if you're a male.

It WILL work for you. From what I understand, it's the safest for long-term use.

Make sure you're getting some fruit, veggies, protein, grains, and dairy in your diet. Even if it's just a little bit, make sure you're getting those basics in before anything else. If you're still hungry, eat more protein.

Great tips everyone!

I wondered the same thing. I'm still pretty new to all this, so it's confusing!

The info in the article is a lil' off. Rybelsus has been around for a few years, and it's a GLP-1. However, the strongest dose was only 14mg. The big question is how much the higher doses gonna cost. Rybelsus in 3, 7, and 14mg doses already is pretty pricey - over $149. But I hear they've found...

I keep seeing BMI mentioned -- isn't it kinda messed up? Like, someone could be ripped but the BMI still says they're not "normal."

I can't say much about these personal problems or how GLP's play into them, but some friends I've known for 15 years split up because of cheating that started after one of them went down over 100lbs on that one brand of Mounjaro. I don't know if the drug made things happen. I've known others to...

I agree with Kelly, it's definitely a journey! So glad to hear others are having success, even with the initial struggles.

You are so cute, like a doll. I love that you're posing the same way in each pic, LOL. Looking amazing, keep it up!

Thank you so much for sharing your story, I'm so happy for you. I'm on week 7 and just increased to 1mg. My stomach wasn't happy last night, lots of side effects (I overate at a family thing). Still, I feel like this is a game-changer. I think it's the anti-inflammatory effect that's working for...

Haha, no way they can contain that!
