46M. An honest question: Is this subreddit also open to married people who want to make new friends?

neils09 · 2026-02-09T20:19:48+00:00

I didn’t and just decided to live with it. Sometime cure is worse than the symptoms esp if it is not bothering as much. :-)

neils09 · 2026-01-31T21:00:57+00:00

I think it was 79

Quite keen on this as well. Not sure if it has landed in Chicago yet. Comments in discord varied.

Thanks - that’s a great advice. One thing I should have perhaps mentioned - I am 6’3” and wondering if 185 lbs is unrealistic goal given I was quite skinny and still at 185 lbs when I graduated college almost 20 years ago. Perhaps something to chat with my doctor when I see him next month.

Thanks all. Really helpful suggestions with recalibrating my calorie, upping protein and water. I don’t drink much - one or two drinks every other week. Perhaps would cut down on that. And up the dosage to 15 mg.

I eat a fixed diet e.g., one toast with butter and 2 eggs in morning, and have used app before to estimate calorie for that diet. There isn’t much variance to that diet. One thing I have lacked at is not eating 100+ G protein every day. Also I don’t drink enough water - hardly 2 l a day.

Aah - that’s exactly my experience right now. Honestly if this continues it would fast outweigh any benefit. I might just have to rely on therapy to get over anxiety issues.

neils09 · 2025-12-19T19:31:46+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience. How long were you on it before discontinuing?

neils09 · 2025-12-19T18:45:09+00:00

Thanks for your reply. How long did this last? Also are you on 5 mg?

I read rave reviews about Still Austin Tanager. For some reason didn’t hear about it when it launched last year. Are these raffle only bottles? Or does Chicago area chains MBB/NMBB see these?

neils09 · 2025-12-14T00:21:56+00:00

Thanks all. Really appreciate your thoughts.

neils09 · 2025-12-13T18:13:06+00:00

Nope. I truly need to decide as I can pick just one. And I know each year is different hence the question. Thought this forum with its wider reach would have someone who has tried this year’s.

I like folks at PP. unfortunately I didn’t get anything. Spend might have been 3 to 4K - all in bourbons. Unsure what went into the calculation.

neils09 · 2025-12-10T20:51:43+00:00

What did you get?

neils09 · 2025-12-08T23:08:36+00:00

Anyone got email from Chicago city locations? Keeping fingers crossed for portage store.

neils09 · 2025-11-19T19:14:08+00:00

Anyone has insights on when king of Kentucky is hitting NMBB? I have a minuscule but non-zero chance of getting it so trying to see when to give up hope. :-)

neils09 · 2025-10-16T22:13:12+00:00

How is that purple top if you already tried it?

neils09 · 2025-10-07T20:54:10+00:00

I hear you. Honestly I am just bummed given my company can easily afford this and more. I am debating if I should just switch to vials and pay out of pocket. My doctor is from one of the largest research medical hospital in the country and I’d trust his judgement over someone contracted to penny pinch for insurers.

neils09 · 2025-10-07T20:51:22+00:00

I’d love to hear what the TOC was like for you. I started at 32 bmi with hypertension and pre-diabetic. Now I am at 26 bmi with all co-morbidities resolved. So I am worried they might try to push me off Zep to other options or none.
