My progress is showing!

scale is poor for tracking fat loss and muscle gains. dexa scans show if losses are actual fat or muscle so you can adjust diet and workouts. visceral fat dropped fast for me so knew i was on track. also showed where i was building or losing muscle.
 
stay away from the buy/sell/trade sections on tg groups. scamming is more of a steroid problem but there's other stuff too like missing coas. never buy from people who dm you first, even if they look like they're with some vendor group. they hit people fast after they join making it look legit. watch out for fake owner accounts too.
 
confused about tesamorelin dosing. clinical trials used 2mg daily but the fda-approved version is 1.4mg. why the gap? other gh secretagogues don't always work better at higher doses either. anyone know why fda went lower?
 
Here's a study linking this med to pancreatitis and cancer claims. There's honestly a study to support or debunk anything. Just saying.
 
take a split dose: 0.375 on day 1 and 0.375 on day 4. splits smooth out the dose over the whole week and cut down side effects. if you're on a 1mg pen, full dose is 74 clicks. 0.75 is 55, 0.50 is 37, 0.375 is 27.
 
Slower but steady is the pattern that holds. Forty over nine months is real progress - belly changes tend to show up later and stick.
 
190 stall after 40 down is typical - protein bump or calorie audit usually breaks it. Shape change with belly shrinking is the real signal.
 
Stalls at 190 after 40 lbs are common - the body is resetting. A dose check or macro shift usually breaks it.
 
Yes, the cycle effect on the scale is real and can be demoralizing if you don't expect it. I retain water in the week before my period and the scale can go up 2-3 lbs easily. The actual trend is still down, the timing just makes it look like a stall every month.
 
The yoga postures coming back is a real non-scale marker - the abdominal volume change that lets you actually breathe while folded forward is measurable progress that the scale doesn't capture. That kind of mobility return is one of the better signals that the composition shift is real.
 
Really hoping to see the same thing happen for me. Mine's been hovering in the low 150s most of this week. Fingers crossed the number finally drops next week. Still, five pounds down so far, so I'll take it.
 
Thank you so much!! Similar height here too, this genuinely excites and gives real hope. This past year brought real discouragement, and it turned into an unhealthy obsession over the number more than ever before. Feeling calmer than when the stall first hit, but honestly that break might've been exactly what was needed. Feeling motivated to jump back in fully now. Just like mentioned, giving it everything. Thank you for sharing that story, genuinely needed to hear it.
 
Definitely seeing real progress here!! Congrats, and hope you keep feeling better overall. I've been slacking off the past couple weeks myself, need to drag myself back to the gym.
 
Genuinely one of the most dramatic before-and-afters I've seen! You look incredible, and years younger too! Hoping you keep riding this momentum.
 
I'm genuinely loving this, my body's shaping up better than it ever has. Results showed up almost immediately and it's been amazing. Can't wait to see the best version of myself yet at 43, and I've had some pretty solid versions before that. Only needed to lose 30-35lbs total and already dropped 16.6 of that in just over six weeks. Abs are starting to show and what comes next should be fun. Once I hit the low 240s and lean, I'll shift toward adding muscle and settle in the 250s around 9% body fat. This compound works incredibly well paired with hormone therapy.
 
My loss is extremely slow, roughly a pound monthly, and I lift weights. 42 lbs gone so far, with barely any loose skin (apart from my bat wings, which I will have forever, ugh). I believe the slow pace gives my body time to adjust. My apron belly is nearly gone now, which I never expected.
