Tirz never caused diarrhea for me, though when I started metformin, that caused loose stools. My endocrinologist who Rx'd it (and Zepbound) told me metformin is known to cause B12 deficiency, so I supplement with sublingual methylated B12. We're in the middle of doing more in-depth blood work...

Also, I lost 40 lbs over 4 months before, in order to have my son via IVF, and I never even went through telogen effluvium after pregnancy. And yes, I've had blood work on my hormone levels via my menopause doctor, they're at expected lowish levels for my age, and had other low estrogen symptoms...

I assumed so too (the ultimate irony is I have a degree in Nutritional Science). But then I read multiple accounts of people who took Tirz for months and did not lose any weight, but did lose their hair and other side effects. So that makes me think there are other mechanisms at work here...

You're right and you've reminded me, I absolutely need to get a haircut. I need a good professional to cut off the last 3-4 inches of damaged hair and shape what's left according to its new density and texture.

He doesn't really need to post, T30 sells out pretty fast. The telegram people are all up his ass asking when he's going to restock x, y, z.

I'm participating in the T60 test in the FPPG and they did have a link to pay Jano directly. We had something like 70+ people so it was ~ $11 per person, though I ended up donating a vial which has a higher value.

Ooh, you have a link? How long have you been using it on your neck?

I'm deep down the rabbit hole of red light treatments. For the scalp but also the skin on my neck is going real wonky from the weight loss. It's starting to look like my mom's. She's almost 70. I'm only 47 dammit! You know, before, I would have sworn up and down that I was not a vain person...

Been on Tirz for 7 months, lost 50 lbs, 35 to go. But my hair won't stop falling out in alarming amounts since ~December. The only reason it's not noticeable right away is that I had a TON of hair to start. But now when I gather into a pony tail, the volume is noticeably MUCH thinner. I'm...

I mean, it sucks that customers are like that, but it is a weight loss drug. You shouldn't have to clarify what you're taking it for just so they won't treat you like people who behave like assholes. And those people shouldn't behave like assholes, but as we all know, assholes gonna asshole.

Ques Do they actually require a Dr. prescription to complete your order? I just ordered a case of BD from them, so I guess I'll find out, just thought I'd ask anyway.

Thanks! This is bringing out all the good recommendations for supplies!

Yeah it's the stupidest law because it actually works against against public safety. Like that's going to stop junkies from using. It will just encourage dirty needle use. And resourceful people who want to use grey gpl 1s will find another source for clean needles.

MFers. I hate Florida, it's overrun with stupid, hateful people making stupid, hateful laws. Ugh!

I had my syringe orders on auto ship with Amazon and this month it--and all insulin syringes--say they are unable to ship to my home address in FL. Has anyone noticed this change? I knew from previous comments by others that Amazon would not ship syringes/needles to California, but previously I...

I'm so glad you're doing so well on tirz. All your health markers are excellent, congratulations! I do take your point about guarding that health against both extremes with proactive measures like weight lifting and watching protein/general nutrition.

I'm just using bac water. I don't really buy into the fibrils scandal, I'm not shaking the vial or anything either. I hadn't done Cagri in a long while because it gave me a low-grade nausea feeling. But I am trying it again at .25 mg. because day 5 of Tirz is rearing its ugly hungry head...

Oh no, then I'm not that far gone into the freeze effect. I still get hot and if I were to run, I would definitely sweat. Ick.

I read the poor girl got booed when the camera put her on screen. I never understood either extreme on this girl, but especially the haters because it seems so rooted in misogyny. Like, if she and her music are so lame, why expend so much energy on hating her? It's like kicking a little girl who...

I'm perimenopausal too, but hot flashes haven't gotten me. (yet?) I'm assuming it's being mostly cold and then hot flashes come and go in between. Worst of both worlds. In my 20's, the times when I had way too many liquor drinks and would get sick throwing up, I would have these random hot...

So if I make no other purchases on Alibaba, and I see an invoice for 300 lbs of kitty litter or 500 t-shirts, that matches the amount I spent on peptides, I can assume that's my order.

I got the same "soon" reply when I asked SRY last week about accepting Alibaba Pay. All I know is it's a way to avoid using crypto. Can someone ELI5 Alibaba Pay to me? Like, do I make an account on Alibaba .com and add a CC that I can pay with and the vendor invoices me thru that?

Probably menopausal women having hot flashes, like someone mentioned up thread. That's gotta be a special kind of hell. For me, I have always hated the feeling of sweating (severe sensory issue) and I've always broken out into a sweat in any mild heat, anything over 70-72. Now, being "cold"...

Dang. I was kicking around the idea of ordering T60 from their US warehouse to avoid the uncertain customs circumstances of Chinese shipments.

I want someone to do studies on why this happens. The only time this has happened to me is from fasting, after 24 hours of no food, you get cold from your metabolism slowing down to adjust for no calories coming in. I wonder if the chills are tied to calorie consumption, as in we're not eating...

What are their payment options? crypto and bank transfer only?

Ah, you hit the nail on the head. I was floundering to find the exact word, but that's it. I think anyone who thinks red tape will keep out bad actors is just fooling themselves. It just makes them feel better, about the risk, about themselves. We don't know these people, really. How much can...

Well telling someone they will "thoroughly regret it" is a really presumptuous thing to say. Especially given we're all taking "research" grey market drugs that come with a lot of risks. The attitude you're reading is calling out your judgmental comments masquerading as helpful advice. So Jesus...

I'm willing to bet it's people who have a LOT more weight to lose, like 80-100lbs or more--the same ones who always lose a lot in the beginning of keto diets. I have been like that so far for these first 45 lbs. Now it's slowing down and I have ~40 more to lose. The last 20-30 lbs I know won't...

I've not reached my goal weight. Which is a conservative goal, and ~20 lbs heavier than I was at 18 (I'm 47). Which was already 20 lbs heavier than most height-weight charts recommend for my height. I've just always been heavy so I want to keep my expectations realistic, I am not looking for a...

I agree that the magic feels disappearing or being blunted is a big disappointment. I miss it myself.

This seems like a big assumption without giving any good reasons.

I miss the drama and the vendors (Tracy is truly the gift that keeps on giving). 3 weeks is too long to go without 🥺

Yes, I, like most obese people, know all about the calories. I have preferences for certain reasons that have to do with attempts at self-moderation. I tend to guzzle when I drink, so if I'm guzzling liquor I will end up way, way more drunk far quicker than I intend. In fact, if I drink liquor...

Omg where has this thread been and why have I not found it earlier? I was considering getting testosterone through one of the concierge places like defy medical... My menopause Dr. recommends addyi before testosterone creams, but this seems like a mid-way option! Nikki's review sold me too...

Oh no, I am obese, started at class III and now at class I. So I can't say whether that's true for others, but it's not the case for me. For me it is more a Pavlovian conditioning, functional type of alcohol addiction. But still an addiction, I'm not deluding myself about that.

Sorry, since I originally asked about Reta's effects on alcohol consumption, it gives the impression I was talking about Reta, but I am talking about the effects of Tirzepatide in these subsequent posts. But if you read through to the end, you'll see that effect is greatly dampened now, just a...

I don't get the hate, if anything I appreciate the transparency so we can make informed decisions. I wouldn't order this power outage Reta but if someone else would, OK. They're comfortable with that level of "I don't know" type risk, I'm not. We all make our decisions.

My recent tirz 30 from QSC black friday is also giving me the same effect. Just "different." The thing that worries me is that I'm not getting the usual debilitating fatigue and the food noise is not what it used to be before Tirz, but is bleeding through. I am confused and hoping I'm...

Well the anti-drinking effects of tirz have greatly diminished for me. The disinterest in drinking just didn't last for me. I'm sad and disappointed about that, but I will keep trying to quit and at least cut down. If only because I'm pretty sure that drinking is effectively canceling out much...

That's the thing, people don't follow through long-term. Lifestyle changes definitely have an effect as long as they're applied --this study is just saying they didn't have great effects on weight loss percentages in glp-1 patients. The medication is driving the weight loss. I'm sure if you...

This is exactly where I'm at. I've given up on calorie counting and exercise because it's impossible to stick with long term. I'm not a spring chicken, I've tried a lot. Even when I did everything obsessively, for science, for a year or longer, it never stuck. So I'm done obsessing and feeling...

How much food are you able to eat before taking the metformin? I am also on Zepbound 7.5 and Metformin extended release, 1500 mg. I tend to get loose stools sometimes but less so if I take the Metformin with more food in my stomach than less. If I'm not able to eat a meal because of the Zepbound...

Ah, ok I can understand how this would feel like going backwards. The same thing happened to me with Reta and made me feel it was a big drawback to the overall effect. I hate the feeling of increased hunger, it's not something I can ignore even if I know it indicates an increase in metabolism. I...

Not sure if you're a man or woman, but I've been looking into testosterone injections for perimenopause. Everything I've heard about testosterone injections in women all say it helps with weight loss, so I wouldn't think it counteracts the glp-1's, I'd assume it helps or amplifies the weight loss.

I have found it similarly hit or miss and therefore useless. I still try it so as to not annoy with easily answerable questions but it's frustrating for everyone, it leads to the same questions being asked over and over.

Wait, you could shop at Costco for clothes before? I'm jealous even their biggest sizes are no match for my butt and hips, lol. The joys of being a woman. Congrats on your huge success! You sound like my husband's size, weight and height wise. Hope his trajectory on Tirz matches yours.

Well that would indicate either no testing was actually done (my vote bc it involves the least effort) or they were tested and saying "FUCK IT, falsify tests and ship the zero peptides anyway." Either way, yes, big fuck up. And I wouldn't fault anyone for not trusting that vendor.
