Still deciding between semaglutide and tirzepatide

[leo_123]

Hi everyone,
Thanks again for all the replies on my intro post—it’s been really helpful reading through different experiences.

I’m still at the stage of trying to decide between semaglutide and tirzepatide.

From what I’ve read so far, both seem effective but with slightly different profiles, and I’m trying to understand what might make more sense for someone in my situation (fat loss plateau despite consistent training and diet).

For those who have tried either (or both), what was the main reason you chose one over the other? And did it end up matching your expectations?

Appreciate any insights, still learning here.

Why not retarutide?

Why not retarutide?

I’ve seen retatrutide mentioned a few times, still trying to understand it better.

Right now I’m mostly comparing the more commonly used options since there’s a bit more real-world experience data available. Appreciate the suggestion though.

I understand completely. I haven't pulled the trigger on Reta yet either. I have it for when I do decide to. There are many people here who can help with retarutide. I'm taking tirzepatide myself since November of last year

Triz would be my recommendation

11 months in , 80lbs down. Along with diet, weight training and steps.

Now trying reta, but the suppression is not as strong or your body is burning more calories so feel hungrier... Who knows

Tirz, the trial data seems pretty clear that its twice as effective as Sema and with less sides.

I can't think of any reason Sema would be preferable over Tirz other than maybe price. Tirz is just plain better. Better effects and more importantly, fewer sides. And Tirz has gotten pretty cheap, so even the price argument isn't that strong. Go with Tirz,

This as well as I seem to get the best reduction in inflammation from Tirz vs other glps!
