the A1C from 6.5 to 4.9 is a clinically meaningful result that goes beyond what most people expect from GLP-1 therapy - moving below the 5.7 prediabetes cutoff from a confirmed diabetes-range A1C represents a metabolic state shift, not just improvement. the retinal check recommendation for GLP-1...

Wegovy pens stay refrigerated; after opening, up to 28 days at room temp is the label guidance.

The gallstone development at 70lbs is well-documented as a fast-loss complication rather than a medication effect - the rapid shift in bile composition during accelerated fat breakdown is the mechanism. Managing post-loss maintenance on the drug side while dealing with the gallstone recovery is...

The loss holding through a 3-week pause is the metabolic adaptation being structural - 18 weeks at 2.5mg shifts the baseline, not just the pharmacology.

stacked last night, sleep was okay. deep sleep wasn't as good as usual. running 50mg vials of epi at 2mg for 25 days. open to lower doses but not usually the move. also tried 0.33mg dsip in the stack

Lost to 196 on 15mg zepbound before insurance cut off. Tried wegovy, rebounded to 230. Now both me and wife on tirz, started 2.5. I did 2.5 four weeks, 5 for two, 7.5 for two—zero effects. Wife doing normal schedule and responding great. Given my history at max dose, safe to jump to 10?

Started with peptide blends but now doing them separate in the same syringe. Daily dose of two, resistance day addition of one more, only pull in a fourth if something's injured.

Weight's not just diet and exercise. everyone's metabolism is different. i'm not convinced meds don't boost metabolism — eaten close to old amounts, still lost weight the next day, esp closer to injection day.

easy to get real bac for like a dollar or less per vial so why risk a reconstituted one getting spoiled over that tiny amount. thought about making my own benzyl alcohol — i make methanol and ethanol a couple times a year anyway — but turns out peptides are easier to make than ba.

Down 22lbs since December, just about 3lbs away from my goal.

Chewing and stomach stretching. Liquids blow through both way faster, so your brain gets less time to trigger hunger hormones and others like CCK. That's why solids work better.

Maybe try cutting out the coffee for a bit? I know it sucks, but caffeine can mess with your hunger signals and maybe interfere with the medication. Just a thought!

Check the longer threads on mitochondrial health and Mots-C, you can find the protocol PDF there. Has some good supporting info. Cheers!

Did you order it online? If so, what company did you use?

I used SS-31 for 6 weeks then transitioned to Mots-C. I am doing the 14-week protocol that's been shared. The idea is SS-31 repairs damaged mitochondria and Mots-c optimizes their function. I also take 600mg of NR daily. I didn't feel much from the SS-31, but Mots-C feels like an energy boost...

That's great! I'm in my second month. I started on 1.5mg and lost about 10 pounds. I moved up to the 7mg tablet, and I haven't lost anything yet, which is weird, in my opinion.

I am wondering if anyone here has used BPC-157? If so, what was your experience?

Congrats! Don't think you're doomed to come out of pregnancy heavier. I was at my best metabolically while pregnant. My calorie intake was finally going to good use!! Eating well and staying active can help those with higher body fat actually lose fat. I had a big baby and only gained 10 pounds...

I have capsules of 50 mg to take orally. I used it twice, roughly a month apart. Both times I ended up with one of the worst migraines I have ever experienced. I realize it might sound absurd, but I plan to use it once more before I stop. I am in no rush. I might try taking it on a NAD+ day.

Wishing you all the best during your pregnancy!
