I'm tapering up still but I think I'm going too slowly to see any real benefits. Lots of cravings have gone away so even if it takes me a long time to get there I'm hoping that this rewires my brain.


I think you mean every week.

Wait! Every day? At the most I did 40 units and it was once a week. I couldn’t eat a bite so I didn’t do that dose anymore.

I know one pound a week seems really slow but if you get any faster it’s bad for your face/bones/skin. It will make you look saggy and lose too much muscle.

I can inject any amount I want. I stay at 10 units but if I was continuing to lose, I’d inject less often.

Microdosing with a pill is not as accurate or easy.

I took the full amount to get to my goal weight and now I told 1/3 of the amount to maintain. I think that counts as microdosing?

Terrible advice. Get back to us in 6 months when you've gained all the weight back and then some.

I take 1.5 every five weeks. I'm now a day past that and no food noise so won't take it until I do.

I take 0.75 mg/week after losing 20 lbs effortlessly on compounded tirz (lost by taking the starting dose, 2.5, and never moving up). I am 5'7 and 125 lbs now. It's been 15 months. I feel amazing.

You are so right - now everyone can be effortlessly thin! I think this makes people mad.


Where do you order it from?

You need a psychiatric drug, not a weight loss drug.


OP here. This is unfair. I realize my bmi is not in obese range, but I am still overweight for my height and build. Also, my bloodwork is pre-diabetic or borderline pre-diabetic at my annual checkups for the past 5 years. Even more importantly, to stay at my current weight (much less to lose weight, which is what I want to do), I think about food constantly - what can I eat for each meal, when can I have my next meal, what can I snack on that is “zero points” etc etc. It’s a mentally unhealthy place to be. Everyone on glps talks about how the “food noise” disappears, and I live with constant food noise.


How tall are you? Because I am 5'2" and 133 is a normal BMI for me. For you to be overweight at 135 means you must be shorter than me. Treat your insulin resistance issues - your doctor will likely suggest metformin first.




Conversely, why not GLP first? Because doctors only know one thing or Ye Olde Ways?


NP here- I just did a telehealth with noom med and they want to put me on metformin for 180 days first before prescribing a GLP1. I'm 5'4" and 160 lbs. Been holding on to 15 extra lbs for 5+ years. I'm 44.

Wegovy yes
Zepbound no

Interestingly, I was the opposite. No hair loss on Wegovy, massive hair loss on Zepbound. Even losing very slowly.
