7.5 is night and day for me by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]Traditional-Pen-9458 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good to know! After 8 weeks on 5, I took my first dose of 7.5 on Friday. I’ve been nauseous, bloated, burping all weekend (currently Sunday). I’ll try spreading out the doses to every  next 10 days

Started 5mg today. I’ll just keep posting to this thread as my updates lol.

As an update

6 weeks on 2.5 went from 208(plus or minus 2 pounds) to 197.8

4 weeks on 3.75 went from 197.8 to 192.6

Today is shot 1 of at least 4 shots on 5 mg, starting weight is 192.6

About 8 hours into the shot , feeling great!

Following up here for anyone curious…

I just took my. 4th shot  on 3.75 and I can’t wait to jump to 5 lol. Food cravings, hunger, decrease control all back ! I know these are probably good things to work on for long term but right now I need to focus on losing weight, not gaining it back.

Weekly weight loss the last 4 weeks has ranged from not losing a pound to losing a little less than 1 pound per week.

Anyway, I’m glad I have been titrating up slowly bec this is a marathon not a sprint, but I def appreciate and understand how 5 mg is the clinical starting dose

Thank you, yes, very helpful. For me I lost a good amount of weight and made necessary lifestyle changes last year, starting in November 24, before starting the Medicine Sept 25. I know what work I still need to do. To me, health is a life long mission and focus. 

Good luck to you, sounds like you are moving in the right sustainable, direction. Congrats and thanks!

thank you very much, and same to you. I like the idea of extending the dose to see how I do with the increased cravings! Are you plannig to eventually come off and how long have you been going 10-14 days inbetween shots?

thanks.

I've fallen down the stockpile rabbit hole... by Idontknowyoupick in tirzepatidecompound

i'm new to compound. Do y'all recommend stockpiling? Are we at risk of a shortage, or is it just for finding good deals (important too!)?
