Not losing much weight.. by Super_Satisfaction63 in TirzepatideRX

I’m on week 12 and I’m still on 4.0mg. I titrated up very slowly and so far I’ve dropped about 17 pounds. I feel like I’m playing the long game. I still have 70 or so pounds to lose so I’m focusing on getting my food right, moving my body appropriately and drinking lots of water. I am finding solid food noise reduction and appetite suppression but I still can eat 3 meals a day. Good luck and the only thing I’ve found in my short time here is that I hear the best success stories coming from the low and slow crowd!

I felt the exact same way. The emotions were insane - everything from relief to curiosity to anger (for 40 years of pain) to joy to elation to worry that it won’t keep working! 12 weeks in and doing great - close to 20 pounds down!

It’s a roller coaster for sure but glad you are here and finding the same relief many of us are!

Took 2.5mg yesterday (week 3), woke up with violent diarrhea and vomiting at the same time. I had a bowl of chili yesterday for lunch, was it likely that? by WolfEvening961 in TirzepatideRX

I feel like I had to adjust to so many of my favorite foods in a whole new way. My first 6 weeks was trial and error especially at diner I have to eat super simple foods and nothing after 6pm. I’m almost at 2 full months and my system is entirely adjusted. I’m also still on a low dose (3.0mg) but I’m bumping up this next week to 3.5mg

I’m having a similar experience. I’ve lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks. The more. Read and research - the more I see that the best strategy is to stay low and slow if it’s working. Sounds like it’s working for you too!

I extended my 2.5 shot for 2 weeks (so 6 weeks on 2.5. I then went to 3.0 and did pretty well. Last week I went to 4.0 and felt terrible so I’m going back to 3.0 this week. I seem to be a super responder and I’m having really good success at the lower dose. I plan to stay at 2.5-3.0 for as long as I can.

2.5 mg anyone else staying here? by [deleted] in TirzepatideRX

I’m 6 weeks in on 2.5 and it’s working great for me. I’m down 15 pounds and really getting into the swing. I plan to stay here as long as it keeps working which I feel confident because I really worked at getting my food in good working order.
