Sayin hello
Ten months in on Rybelsus myself and down a dozen or so, so I'm where you were around the start. The humidity here makes the evening walk feel like a swamp, but the protein-first habit is already payi…

BAC water shelf life after opening?
I'm on the pill version so I skip the BAC headache entirely, but the sharpie-date habit stuck with me anyway for anything in my fridge down here in Miami heat. For what it's worth I never pushed past …

Comparison update posted today at week 6
Monthly was the right call for me too, weekly just made me obsess over day to day fluctuations. I'm down about 12 on the pill version myself and my face also showed it before anywhere else, so those s…

Compounded semaglutide storage question

Tirzepatide and muscle mass — what the research says
Down about 12 on the pill version and I made the same mistake of no baseline scan, so at this point my only real metric is whether my gym numbers move. So far they haven't dropped, which I'll take. Th…

Just took my Wegovy dose, sharing how it's going
Not sure if anyone else here started on the oral version like I did, but I've been working up through the doses and I'm finally at the 14mg tablets. Down about 12 lbs so far and the appetite quieting …

month 3 progress - the NSVs are adding up
Tortoise club checking in - 12 lbs on the pill version down in Miami, and I've stopped stressing about the scale. Old jeans from two summers ago fit again last week, which honestly felt bigger than an…
