Dexcom G7 and Libre 3 are the two most used here for CGM on GLP-1.

Mixing to 60mg for two people sharing a vial is standard - each draws the individual dose from the reconstituted concentrate, consistency stays the same.

MT-2 is typically injected subcutaneously - nasal spray formulations exist but absorption is inconsistent and the dose calibration is harder. The tanning effect at low doses builds over a few weeks and accumulates with UV exposure. PT-141 is similarly sub-q for predictable onset.

That's good to know, Dakota1976! I hadn't heard that. I was concerned about potential GI issues since I have a sensitive stomach.

The frequent urination might be just at the start, Pulse_Loss. When your blood sugar is regulated, it should settle down.

OMG! Sounds like you did that to yourself. LOL!

I'm now 6 months in. The food noise really does quiet down, but I noticed it creeping back up as I approach my next injection. It's like my brain is whispering, "Hey, remember how good that pizza used to taste?"

I can relate to what ThinQuest928 is saying. I also had increased cravings after starting. Hang in there! It takes a few weeks for things to even out. I found that once my blood sugar started to stabilize, the sugar cravings got even stronger. It's all part of the process with these meds.

I miss enjoying food. I don't miss the food itself, but I miss the feeling it gave me. My all-time favorite meal was fish fingers and fries with lots of bread for sandwiches. Now, I try an alternative with fresh cod and a small amount of sweet potato fries, and while it's nice, it doesn't give...

I saw someone else post that they were at their heaviest (234lbs) in 2025 and started their journey at 213 in March, and now they are finally under 200lbs! Bobby45 you got this!

Nothing at all! I absolutely love my new life. Instead of food, I now find joy in activities and hobbies. I'm finally doing all the amazing things I couldn't do before because I was overweight. I never want to go back.

I use THC every day. The munchies are definitely less intense now that I'm on a higher dose of sema. And for some reason, gummies don't affect me at all anymore, same with small doses of psilocybin.

Thanks for posting! Just a reminder about our rules: No discussing non-approved stuff, and no selling or asking to buy meds. Also, check out the FAQ if you're new here. This is just to help, not to stop the chat.

Same here! But I use THC nearly every day.

I have a friend who's been on one of these meds for a year and lost over 100 lbs! She started at 242 and now she's 139. It's incredible what's possible. She was so happy to get her T2D under control.

I know exactly what you mean. I'd make dinner, sit down to eat, and then not even want it. Such a good feeling! [👍]

That's a great question. I'm also thinking about that. I'm planning on continuing with a healthy lifestyle and working closely with my doctor to adjust my medication if needed. I'm also thinking of switching to a lower maintenance dose rather than stopping completely.

I did increase my dose over time, as instructed by my doctor. I'm currently at the maximum dose and it's working well for me.

It's almost been a year since I started this crazy ride, and wow, what a difference! I went from a BMI that was considered morbidly obese (around 295 lbs) to just plain overweight (about 195 lbs). My confidence is back, I feel way more energetic, I'm generally happier, and I've actually managed...

Fantastic success! Look at that beautiful waist-to-hip ratio: excellent work!
