    Titration woes

    From what I see in your intro post, your BMI is 22.4 (in the coveted healthy range of 18.5 to 24.9). So I would consider sticking to the 15 mg weekly of tirz and (continue to) focus on body composition and/or switch to reta (for shits and giggles). But switching to reta can actually cause...

    And filtering is just part of the process for preventing pathogens. You want to wipe or spray everything down with 70 percent rubbing alcohol, including gloves. Wearing gloves can help prevent staph from getting in. And if you already have a HEPA air filter, it wouldn't hurt to put it close by.

    Nurses are not reconstituting illicit peptides from China, made in unknown labs with no FDA registration. And they don't have to worry about unsterile pieces of plastic or cardboard inside. But the recon process itself can create particulate matter that would ideally be filtered out. The...

    I’m going to titrate off Semaglutide…

    If you do decide later to try sema again or switch to tirz or reta, I would consider getting some more OTCs or some Rx meds (like from your doc or telehealth) to help with symptoms. Marijuana gummies, gabapentin, and even Tylenol seem to help me as well when stomach symptoms are painful.

    I’m going to titrate off Semaglutide…

    There are not typically withdrawal issues, from what I have read. When I delay injecting tirz for two days, I don't experience anything except more hunger or food noise. But, of course, being on a lower dose could help if the side effects go down. The side effects are dose-dependent.

    Day 1! How to prepare?

    I hate to see wheat suffer. So I let others do the dirty work, haha. Tastewise, I like the chocolate milk by Fairlife the most. For more protein and less sugar, Fairlife chocolate and vanilla protein shakes are good too, but I had to get used to them a little.

    Taboo?

    For some fat burning and energy, I often use daily or twice-daily clen (the non-steroid oral stimulant clenbuterol) at ideally only 20-40 mcg per day. Clen seems a lot less risky over the long-term than AASs like tren, including for the liver.

    Day 1! How to prepare?

    It's not until day two or three in the tirz week that I get GI symptoms, if I am getting them that week. I take it at any time of day. When I started with compounded tirz, I was very excited and injected right when I got home.

    Wow, they are motivated. But they seem to (mostly) get good, safe results after a lot of research, including watching plastic surgeons do it on YouTube. Some there even say botox is one of the easier DIY procedures, but to me it makes recon and filtering seem like child's play. Of course...

    Taboo?

    OTC meds are not necessarily safer than Rx or made in the US. Walmart-brand ibuprofen is made in India, China, and the US, and may be more likely to cause kidney issues than meloxicam. The GLPs usually help liver values, as in my case. When I took absolutely nothing and weighed more is when my...

    There's also a lot of scammers on IndiaMart. The Zofran 4 mg is sometimes prescribed for up to four a day as needed (16 mg daily maximum). The big savings to me compared to domestic pricing is generic Voquezna for heartburn, which is also at AllDayChemist (which has lower shipping than...

    Almost everyone seems to freeze tirz before recon, especially since a whole kit can be a year supply, depending on dosing and if it is T10 or T15 vs T60/120. There really is no major advantage to refrigeration since colder is better to help maintain purity and sterility.

    The more popular he gets, the more likely he'll need the money for fines and legal fees. As Brute Enforcer Emeritus once said, there are two endings for vendors: retirement or being sentenced. But why stop the flow of money when the sentence is usually financial and some house arrest?
