Last I checked it was 15, still shrinking!!!!
Nearly a year into my glp1 journey, and as far as im concerned these drugs are still pure magic in a bottle.

Im a hungry hungry hippo without. Used to be the biggest guy by far at my workplace. Or just about anywhere I went Now im one of the smallest. Amazing. I'll take it. Getting so close to goal....
 
Same here. I've had to buy belts and even then, the old 38" waist pants make me look like a clown.
Same! I bought 38s 3 months ago scaling down from 40s and 42s before that, and elastic before that. Moved from xxl to large and have a stack of 36 pants that are about to fit me perfectly 👌
 
That is amaaaazing! I too have a stack of clothes up and down the size scale, and as of recently i have only been adding to the top of the size list. Lucky to have a multi-bedroom house with spare closets to store the nice clothes hanging and the other stuff in boxes.

Can i ask how long you have been and what you are taking, what your starting weight, titration timeline, and current is?

Wooow, great progress! I started with the 40s and now the 36s are getting roomy. I haven't bought new belts yet; I just shorten them and cut extra holes in them. The cost of the peptides is modest in comparison to the wardrobe updates 🙄
 
Congratulations! 16" is huge! You must be barely visible now!

What do you do with all your old clothes? I always wondered if people go out and get a whole new wardrobe, and if so, at what point.

I was asking myself that same question today. 🤔
I think that point has been reached....

I wasn't that big (lost ~10cm / 4"')
The 16" loss from @Gr33dyOctopus boggles my mind. (respect!!!)

Exactly - the belt can only do so much scrunching until you start feeling like a dumpling. Are elastic waist bands the solution? Do we keep buying new clothes???

I lost quite a few inches off my waist from gh (probably around 4-5 inches as well) and not really sure what to do...

If you're still (intending on) losing weight then yeah, go with something elastic.
Eventually you want to maintain a certain size. That'll be the right time to get a full new wardrobe.

Absolutely! I started highest weight at 330. Discovered wiping my own ass was getting VERY difficult, and I lost the ability to tie my shoes or cut my own toenails.

August 9th 2025 I took my first shot.
Not sure of my titration timeliness, but now I am up to 6 mg tirz Fridays and 7 mg reta on mondays

Down to 215 right now, kinda letting myself eat a little more and only lost 5 pounds in the last month but thats ok.
After my upcoming procedure going to go hard for goal, which is 190.

I got rid of all my fat people clothes and have 4 hydrapeaks full of glp1s, never going to be fat again unless I go to prison! Lol

Jeetje, ik ben 18 cm kleiner en dacht dat ik zo geweldig was! 😂 Je laat ons er allemaal maar bekaaid uitzien! Gefeliciteerd!!
Hopelijk heb je wel je eetgewoonten en je levensstijl aangepast. Anders heb je geen keuze dan de rest van je leven aan de Glp1 en retatrutide (because there is no such thing as "retatrutide (because there is no such thing as "GLP-3")") peptides te blijven. Afkicken van de Reta of Tirza wordt enorm moeilijk. Wees gewaarschuwd!!

I offer all the old.clothes on offerup for free. Want them out of my life ASAP. Im on my 3rd set of new clothes, think I spent around 6 or 800 bucks this time around. I dont care though. Was so fat for so long, whats important now is that I look good and put together. People treat me differently now and the wardrobe is a big part of it.
 
To say we're proud of you is an understatement. Your determination has provided motivation for many other members on here and in your life. Not all heroes wear capes my man. Thanks for sharing your journey and glad you can see better better body parts when looking down at your feet!

Brother, I sincerely hope I can follow directly down the same path. Amazing job!

Question for you. How long were you doing just tirz before you added Reta to your lineup. And what prompted you to start using Reta. I ask as it’s probably something I’ll be doing in the future.

Honestly? Because it was there and I had it in my grubby little hands. All over Reddit and the web everyone is like "naw, dont mix em, burn out glp1 receptors, wasting expensive drugs, pick one or the other." Then I get to glp1 forum and people do it all the time.

At 10mg of tirz sometime early this year I decided to introduce reta, cut down tirz and gradually upped the reta.

I started small, initially planning to swap to reta from tirz, but now I am doing very similar amounts of each, and my hunger which used to be out of control is so controllable.

Don't plan to stack forever, but the studies for these glp1s show that after a certain amount of time, they tend to become less effective as time goes by. And its important to me to hit goal, anyway I can before that happens.

So stacking until I hit goal and then will likely try to stay on one or the other. Likely reta as thats some super powerful shit, you can feel its more powerful than the tirz, but who knows? I like them both.

Im still dropping weight, and thats whats most important, everything is about the weight loss and goal. Even the speed of which it happens.

Have sooooo much of both of these drugs that I could (stole this from someone else) empty out vials and put out a massive grease fire on the stove with all the powder.

Anyway, I appreciate everyone on this board, my life changed first with glp1s, and then again as I gained access to this forum and became a lot wiser about how they work and how to use them to thier max effectiveness.

Thank you all.
 
Last I checked it was 15, still shrinking!!!!
Nearly a year into my glp1 journey, and as far as im concerned these drugs are still pure magic in a bottle.
