Loving that we are all finding each other again from the discord/telegram after the great axe fell recently.
A bit of my story:
Was always a pretty thin/fit person til hormones kicked my ass after second pregnancy (truly I probably had gestation diabetes with each pregnancy but my midwife wasn’t ever concerned about progressing weight gain).
Anywho, 4 kids, 1 who lived in hospitals due to medical complications, a divorce and lots of stress later, I found myself at 250 lbs on a very small/tall frame. I could tell I was going downhill.
My mom started ozempic for diabetic mgmt in fall of 2021. She lost 15 lbs in 15 days, had a stroke on day 20. And died on day 27. We always blamed the ozempic so I threw myself into researching it, and vilifying it.
Problem was, I knew that wasn’t the true killer. It was catalytic for healing, and the acceleration of that healing was what caused everything to go bad for her.
So I started to think, if it was actually helping her, maybe it could actually help me. If I went much slower and tried the tirzepatide first.
Talked to a push provider, got my first two bottles compound from A C A, was shaking nervous the first dose, but did it anyway.
When I was completely fine going 20+ hours without even thinking of food, I knew I was onto something. I finally understood “food noise”, and why all the tiktokers blab on about it.
About 3 weeks in my fiancé finally said “ok what’s going on- you hardly eat anything at dinner and I can tell you’re losing weight.”
So he decided to join me.
He doesn’t have much weight to lose, but he loves that it’s helped cut his alcohol consumption by 70%.
Sorry this is long. I don’t have anyone else to talk to about this journey so I pour it all out here.
I’m getting married in 35 days and would love to feel comfortable and beautiful on that day. And just a few more pounds would help go a long way with that.

I’m 47f, 5’7”, and I would love to be closer to 150, but I’m not sure I’ll ever see those numbers again.
My research cow has lost 26 lbs in about 9 weeks with tirz.
Added in AOd a few weeks ago.
Also pinned my first tiny sema dose in between tirz every 5 days.
Hoping to add in a few more peptides for overall health as soon as I pay off the wedding and can go back to stockpiling Chinese product as a hobby.
Don’t do a ton of working out, try to just keep moving throughout my day as work/life allows. Need to be much better about that.
I ordered my wedding dresses from china, shockingly got similar customer service as when I order my tirz from there too. I couldn’t even bring myself to go try on dresses cause I hate how fat I’d let myself get.
This is def turning into a therapy session post vs just an intro and I apologize for that but am so thankful for a space to finally type some of this Pitt loud.
Ok I think that’s it.
Thank you if anyone actually read all of this. Hoping to be able to give back in any way I can to this great community!
