Trying to wrap my head around the difference between compounded and brand, and how to tell a legit pharmacy from a sketchy one. What do you look for?

For what it's worth, Down another 1.8 lbs this week and holding steady. The jump to the next dose was smoother than I feared. So glad I'm not alone in this. Everyone's different of course.

Just hit my first 20 lbs and I can't believe it. Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, but slow worked for me. Consistency with my injection day mattered more than the exact dose. Keep us posted!

Same here, Maintenance for three months now and holding. How are you handling injection-day fatigue. So glad I'm not alone in this. Everyone's different of course.

Scale didn't move but my rings fit again. What helped you push through the plateau. Hang in there.

Totally agree. Titrating slowly is so underrated, no rush to climb. Rooting for you. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

My doctor had me hold until side effects settled. You've got this.

My doctor had me hold until side effects settled. The week-1 nausea was rough but it really does ease up.

Down another 1.8 lbs this week and holding steady. Titrating slowly is so underrated, no rush to climb. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.
