8 months on Ozempic here and not a single pound lost. Same weight as when I began. Everybody responds differently.

Been on the wolverine stack along with reta around five weeks. Before that I trained twice a week. Week 1 I was wiped out and sluggish, which I think was reta killing my appetite, since I was eating under 1000 cal a day. Week 2 I began eating properly, up to 1800 cal, and felt much better...

I've seen the opposite. I run trt and reta together and my body's doing well. Did you get your hormones checked? My energy, clarity, mood and libido are all up. Now when I have a treat the flavor is explosive, it feels like a real treat instead of a coping habit. Maybe get progesterone checked...

Hi Appreciate the reply Leaning toward the same conclusion myself, since the weight loss hasn't felt significant, so that's probably what's going on.

Bumping my dose up made me stop eating almost entirely, brought on nausea and completely changed how food tasted, plus made me way more sensitive to temperature, I only made it to 6mg before it became unbearable, even sipping water felt like a struggle. Dialed back down to 2mg, brought in two...

Nice work! I only dropped a couple waist sizes myself but it still felt massive... My mind hasn't fully processed the change yet.

You're doing genuinely great. Just keep at exactly what you're already doing. Even if progress stalls out at some point, there's even better medication on the way over the next few years that'll help you close the gap to your goal.

85 lbs in the first year on Tirz and looking to lose another 125-150 is a lot of runway still. The Tirz working this well through year one is a good sign for what adding Reta could do if you decide to make the move. How is the appetite suppression holding up at 15mg currently?

Not feeling anything in the first two days on a starter dose is normal. The effects build over weeks. No side effects early is a good start, not a sign it is not working.

Pain relief as a secondary effect from GLP-1 comes up consistently. The inflammation reduction is real.

Skipping the wipe is common. Sting usually comes from concentration or pH.

started december 2024 at 410 lbs, went ozempic then mounjaro then wegovy because insurance kept changing. mounjaro approved finally and i've stuck with it. bariatric surgery scheduled for august and i'm wondering — can i keep taking mounjaro after or do i need to wait until plateau? don't want...

These influencers could actually help if they made meal plans for hitting macros while on the meds. Food noise might be gone but now you're scrambling to eat enough protein and keep balanced. That's a real gap they're missing.

was super fatigued my first week, bit of nausea on day 1. staying hydrated really helped even though i hate drinking water when nauseated. barely had side effects after week 1!

jumped my dose for no real reason lol. been on 100mg 3x per week, went to 150mg today. flushed hard, had to sit. rest of day was fine. gonna stick with 100mg and just bump frequency if needed.

on olanzapine and it's inspiring seeing how this med helps people with psych-med weight gain. tried it before, works better now. down 25 lbs since january. meds are still necessary but i'm way more active this time. hopeful it'll keep working.

Totally agree with MiniMe-By-Christmas about the food being a 'trick'. It's like my body is saying 'EAT SOMETHING' even if it's the wrong thing. Making sure I eat regularly, even small amounts, has helped a bit.

Yes! This totally happened to me too. It's bizarre because I've always been team savory. Now, I'm craving sweet stuff. So weird.

I had the same fears and I'm prediabetic. started ozempic and no regrets. switched to tirzepatide when the first one plateaued. there's always options if something stops working. you won't hate food, you'll just feel full way faster.

Here is an idea: how about 'TrimTide'? It keeps the 'tide' theme going from other GLP-1 drugs.
