I never qualified for insurance deals and since I live in the boonies, no trial center is anywhere near me.... so I started with compound Tirze 3 months ago. I am taking it slow because I don't want to have a lot of excess skin in the end... staring at 224, I am 21 lbs down to 203 now.... I want to go to 150 by sometime April next year.... started on 4 weeks 2.5g, then 4 weeks 4g, 3 weeks 5g and am now on my 3rd week of 6.25 g..... will go to 7.5 g next ....
Let see everyone’s weight loss results

I’m ok if I don’t lose more, will be ecstatic if I can get to 140. Time will tell.

Thank you!
Today I have lost 100 lbs since April 16, 2024. A little early of my 6 month goal . Tirz helped but my fitness pal and a 1200 calorie diet were the main path used. Max weight was 2 years ago 385. 251.8 lbs this am. Today is also the one year anniversary of my parathyroidectomy. That ended my chronic fatigue , mental cloudiness and severe cramping….. sleep apnea gone, diabetes undetectable, etc

A month in and about 5 pounds lost! I've struggled with weight my whole life. Once I put it on, it seems impossible to get it off. Most of my immediate family is overweight/obese. I've been active my whole life but struggle with my diet. This year I've been better about it but it still fluctuates and it's been a SLOWWWW crawl down. I know it's just 5lbs but considering I've lost 11 pounds total since last year, that is a significant improvement.
I have only used Tirzepatide from compounding pharmacies. I was on the cusp, but I was pre-diabetic again (2nd time in a year) so I was able to get a prescription. I accidentally started off with a 4mg dose for my first shot. Been doing 2.5mg the last 3 weeks and will move up to 3.5mg tomorrow. Hoping to stay there for at least a month. Don't want to do more than 5mg if possible, especially now that compounding might be over.

Good for you for being positive about your weight loss even though it's been SLOWWWW. (Hope I didn't miss any 'W's 🙂 ) Slow is good - that's about 1 lb/week. Of course we'd all like to lose faster but the truth is giving time for skin to shrink and allowing our bodies to adjust slowly is a good thing. I'm pretty slow, too, and the hardest part is not getting frustrated with it. In the past, it was easy to give up because it felt like it would never happen and it would all come back anyway, but now we know with these meds, we will be able to keep losing and then maintain. Keep up the good work!

Just passed my month anniversary on Compound Tirz. Started at 5mg and moved to 7.5 last week (doesn’t show the shot for some reason). Have 2 months left of compound and then I’ll be moving to some I ordered through Amopure.
Started at 344.
Currently 323.
Goal is 215.

Revo has been here a while. Longer than you or I actually. He's also had some really good input on some of the discussions around here. I doubt anyone else here could do their own sterility tests.
@Revo39564 congrats! My hope is to loose about the same, but in around 2 years rather than 6 months. I'm 60% of the way there 10 months in.
Had a severe fatty liver to motivate me. Yeah nothing ever grew out on multiple test .
Doesn’t matter how long it takes …. it’s the end results. Good luck
Thank you! You too!
I've always gained it all back plus more every time I've lost more than 2 pounds a week. Hopefully it'll be okay with tirz but I plan to titrate down and lose more slowly when I get closer to my goal weight. Still need to keep energy for exercise 🏋🏽♀️
