Good evening from sunny Florida. My peptide journey started about a year and a half ago. I have been overweight most of my life and hated it so much. I tried different fad diets/ workout programs that worked short term but nothing that stuck. My problem was no matter how much or how little I ate I was always hungry. I could have finished a big meal and was still hungry 5 minutes later. I was going down a bad road when my partner sat me down and gave me an honest talk about how much I let myself go. I probably gained 25 lbs in a few years and the heaviest I ever was. (Almost 240lbs) So I took my health back into my hands and figured I'd try semiglutide. It really started to work and I was gradually losing weight .. I have tried to stick to a healthy 1-2 lbs per week. Try to focus on protein and keep up my workouts. I finally got a plateau about 8 months in and couldn't go up on my dose because I was having horrible side effects. The nausea and constipation were horrible. I finally switched to tirzepitide and have been on that happily since! I'm about 45lbs down with about 30 to go and am excited about my progress. I would love to learn more from others and hear about their experiences as well to continue on my health journey.
