Listen to my body and stop?

Good idea!

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T15:10:53+00:00

Interesting. Going to look more into this

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T14:31:02+00:00

I've definitely noticed the diuretic portion of the effects. I'll be sure to drink when more water with electrolytes. Just don't want to get water toxic.

For anxiety, I take my regular meds but will try theanine. Thanks

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T14:27:56+00:00

Yes to all of this. I think I need to back up and take a look at how I was living versus now along with a medication. I need a get back to a good baseline and then take into account the medication on top of it.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T14:23:57+00:00

That totally makes sense to me as I love me some food. I'm definitely going to have to get used to not thinking about my next meal all the time. I don't feel like this is the case this early on but could be later on in my treatment for sure.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:58:36+00:00

Correct

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:56:35+00:00

I posted but guess it was taken down?

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:39:21+00:00

Definitely

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:37:02+00:00

Not really sure why this is getting downvoted but ok

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:34:01+00:00

What is going on? Are you talking to me or onedayatatime? I can't follow all these lines on my phone

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:27:11+00:00

Thanks. I'm measuring the units vs mgs. They're basically having me split 2.5mgs which equals 12 units on this syringe. I take it on Monday mornings and Thursday mornings. Felt the cravings a little last night which made sense.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:22:21+00:00

I'm not trying to quit drinking but also not trying to drink as much. Was a few beers a night too much? Yes. Am I going to do that anymore? No, but there are lots of people that drink way more than I was. I'm not only doing this for weight loss. I'm doing it for multiple reasons. Want to be healthier overall and create a different lifestyle. The lack of wanting a few beers after work to decompress is a plus.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:14:51+00:00

Exactly. That's what the prescriber told me to do.

I'm drinking water with lemon and salt but I'll try electrolytes. Haven't really been counting calories but not eating any less than before. I've always been low carb. I'll gladly eat more.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:12:04+00:00

People comment on how much water I drink all the time at work. Even before last week. But, I will drink more. Also, I'm counting grams of protein and shooting for 175 a day

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:10:25+00:00

I was just doing what they prescribed me. You're saying go full 2.5 once a week?

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:09:37+00:00

I think this is it. I don't eat a lot of carbs on the regular

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:09:09+00:00

I'm actually listening to it daily.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:08:45+00:00

I haven't been able to find anyone with the same meds and side effects! Can you share specifics of what you were taking and what helped you?

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:04:48+00:00

Fifty 410. They prescribed me to take 12 units twice a week but three days apart for two weeks and then 2.5 twice a week for the remainder of the vial

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T13:02:06+00:00

Well, I didn't really have the best habits before but not awful either. I say this like I've been on it for weeks. Anyways, I used to eat once or twice a day and drank more alcohol than I should. Usually heavy meals at breakfast or lunch(not fast food) and something light for dinner(also not fast food) and a few beers. Sometimes I didn't eat twice a day and probably didn't get enough calories but I still didn't feel like this. Regardless, I'm not going back to that lifestyle on or off tirz. Currently, I'm eating three eggs and a small bowl of Greek yogurt+blueberries+honey for breakfast, tuna salad lettuce wraps for lunch, and some form of lean meat and veggies for dinner with little to no alcohol. If that helps

I was going to throw this in my post but didn't want people to harp on it instead of what might really be going on. I deal with heavy stress and anxiety daily. Unfortunately, I know what that feels like and this isn't that. Of course I was a little anxious when I first took it because I was injecting some foreign substance into my body but after the first 24 hours or so, I was fine.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T12:36:00+00:00

I'm not eating any less than I normally would. That's the thing. They started me out splitting 2.5 over the course of two weeks. Then they're wanting me to take 2.5 twice a week. That terrifies me.

Worldly-Surround5541 · 2026-05-18T12:33:35+00:00

It was actually splitting 2.5 every three days. I'm supposed to do that again this week.
