I'm a Tirzepatide girly. 25 units and I just am not feeling any side effects. Loving just doing my calorie defecit and not having food noise. I've lost 9 lbs in 2 weeks so far!
I just got mine. I have 10mg of trizepitide and im a little confused on what amout of bact water to mix it with. Today will be day one. I think its 1ml. Is it 1 ml?
@@vegas9440 What's cool about it curbing your appetite is that it allows you to practice not overeating and thinking so much about food. Obviously you won't be on it forever, so its very important to use it as a tool to make changes.
I’m really getting discouraged. I’m about to start week three & I’ve only lost a pound. I try & work out atleast four times a week which I don’t enjoy AT ALL but I thought I’d be losing more than a dang pound!
This is me! I have 25ish pounds to lose, not 100. Thank you for this video! The weight is real, and I had to move to all size 10s, would love to be cozy in my 8s again.
Hello thank you for sharing! I have been on Semaglutide compound for 10 weeks and am down between 14 and 16 lb. I keep fluctuating excited I'm going to hit 20 lb weight loss but then I gained 2 lb again and I keep going back and forth. Have you had this experience at all?
I have been on Tirzepatide lowest amount from compounding pharmacy for 2.5 months. I have lost 22 lbs. I have 8 lbs more to go. It really does take your appetite away. So much so I sometimes forget to eat. 😂 The only side effect I have had is dizziness and fatigue. The doctor said I need to increase my protein so have started with a protein shake in the morning and it has helped the fatigue. The dizziness is from low blood sugar which has improved somewhat with the protein shake. I am very happy with the results and am so thankful I can afford the medication. If you can, go for it!
@@Stephintojoy I am not with a company. It is through a cosmetic surgery center in San Diego, Ca. It is not online. I have now lost 29 lbs so I have met my goal and am on maintenance. Good luck!
I would love to see you take your compound. I am on Zepbound but may be switching to compound due to the shortage. The pen is so easy and the syringe kind of scares me. Thought I would ask... thank you for the videos!
Deff don’t be afraid of it! It’s an insulin needle so it’s super small and you hardly feel it. If you’re paying out of pocket you’ll probably like the compound more. What comes in the vials almost always gives your medicine for much more than 4 weeks.
This was a fantastic example how to use compound peptides the right way! Congrats on the life changes. Absolutely perfect. B12 and an HGH regiment will also h3lp woth yoir journey. Well done!
Hi there, nice video. I would like to know how much you weighed when you started and how tall are you? I’m 179 and 5’6. I started compounded Trizepatide eight weeks ago and I’ve Lost 23 pounds. But I haven’t weighed myself yet this week. I know that you said you were wearing a size 8 pants and maybe you should have used a size 10 pants . But either way those sizes are pretty small in my book. Unless of course you’re 5’1? ✌
My BMI was around 27 and I'm 5'7''. I haven't shared specific numbers on the internet yet - idk I guess my comfort level isn't quite there yet. I'm now down 25 pounds and looking to loose just another 5 and then start weaning off of it.
@@MadisonLoethen thank you for answering me. Congratulation on your weight loss. You must be thrilled. I’m looking forward to the day I wear a size 8 again. Hoping it won’t take me too long! How many months have you been taking Trizepatide? I did watch that entire video but I don’t remember how long you were taking it? ✌💙
Doctors will prescribe this is you’re not obese? My bmi is stuck around 25/26. I’ve been trying to lose weight for about 4 or 5 years and I’m just stuck at this bmi now. But I think my doctor would laugh me out of the office if I asked for this medicine! 😬
@@hannahw2697 if your doctor laughs at you, then just join a telehealth company like ShredRx and you’ll get it with no problems whatsoever. My own doctor did prescribe it but my insurance didn’t cover it. So that’s why I use the compounded version. I don’t know what kind of Doctor Who wouldn’t prescribe it if you’re overweight. That’s ridiculous IMO….✌
@@hannahw2697 all you have to do is join a telehealth company. And when you put your information in. Just give them a higher number for your weight. They don’t check at all. Shed RX is the best one. It’s so much better than fierce. You will have to pay out of your own pocket. If you have the money to do so. My regular doctor tried to put me on Trizepatide but my insurance wouldn’t cover it. So I pay out-of-pocket for the compound version and I’m down 30 pounds. If you really want it you can get it. Nobody will laugh at you…✌
I like how you're taking your time with it. Does the pharmacy have prescribing physicians or you have to get a referral? What are you saying, "Fierce Health?"
why are you waiting until you are "done" to make the changes you mentioned? I would recommend at least 3 resistant training sessions per week - progress would be even better and muscle loss less.
Why did you leave fierce. I see that there is a monthly fee along with the medication. I thought I heard you say that the fierce company only required that you pay for meds after the initial payment. Is that correct?
I'm taking wegovy (prescribed by a doctor). It's been 3 months and only lost 10 pounds. My doctor has now prescribed zepbound (she believes that this will work better for me). I'll take my first dose next week. I'm paying out of pocket and using the injectable pen. So, my doctor suggested that I try a compounded version of zepbound. I'm worried about two things: having to inject myself using a needle instead of a pen and I'm a little leary about the compound meds. Such as what's really in the medication and how sterile is the environment that the medicine is produced in. I've never even held a syringe. How do you learn how to load the syringe correctly and inject myself (I have always been extremely scared of getting shots). Now, I'm considering giving myself a shot.😮 Could someone please respond to my concerns? Thanks.
I was nervous about self injecting with the compound too but it’s honestly been totally fine. I found instructions the meds come with are pretty clear. Plus the price difference is huge.
Try your local urgent cares. I started going to an urgent care that has a weight loss program and they inject the compounded tripeptide. So you don't have to inject yourself. Plus they are cheaper than online and include B12 shots. 🙌🏾
Not to be a Debbie downer but it’s beyond hard to maintain the weight loss after you get off. The weight comes back crazy ! Just speaking from personal experience 😢
Did you change your lifestyle? If you go back to eating the way you were originally which caused weight gain then yes you’ll gain the weight back. You need to find out what your maintenance calories is
Did you implement going to the gym and being more active along with changing your diet from sugary food and/or unhealthy food and overeating? Are you having cravings for sugars after coming off? How long were you on it? Please explain more to support your statement.
I think its easier to maintain for people who had max 30 lbs to lose. But if you are 250 plus and lost 100 lbs in a year that would be really hard to maintain without the drug
@@MadisonLoethen ok thank you. Last night was my first dose of tirzepatide and I woke up today at 10:30 a.m. So tired. I'm just going to get up and try to go about my day and be normal. But I feel pretty tired.
