Indeed. There's no sense paying the legitimate source when the grey market costs a great deal less — and it sent me down one hell of a rabbit hole, and I'd guess the same happened to you, since we're now working through an entire laundry list of peptides. Plenty of us laid in weight loss peptides that will keep us going for years. So should anything ever go wrong with grey market supply, we'll be covered for a good while.

Keen to give any of the amylin analogues a go. They act differently to reta, so stacking ought to be on the cards.

Right then, everyone — let's arrange to hold a moment of silence. Body positivity is on its way out.

Is there any chance she'd just vanish??

She'll only shed a small amount — you're waiting on her to increase that GLP-1 dose of hers.
(One caveat: Lizzo has said a few strange things over the years and that's why I stopped following her, though…)
Nobody is owed a particular shape of body by us, and I'd never shame anyone for going after better health — but it does make me a little sad that we're losing heavy, sexy celebrities and the idea that you can be hot at any size. Her music and her late 2010s message honestly gave me the confidence that I too could be big n’ sexy. I mean, I AM and always have been
but that the wider world could accept it…that counted for a lot. And yet, now that I'm on track to stay in straight sizes for good (rather than just the brief stretch where I'm grinding away and white-knuckling it) — and that this is genuinely reachable — I feel excited about it. I'm no joiner, and definitely a weirdo, but the social currency that comes with thinness…it's hard to ignore.

Not convinced I'm the target audience for anything new or whiz-bang...I'm old, and what I already have does precisely what it's meant to. My tirz/reta stash will almost certainly outlast my most hopeful estimate of my own lifespan...I could switch off the internet entirely, never think about anything new again, and my health and wellness routine would still be elite...
It does amaze me that all of this progress keeps arriving in leaps and bounds, and I genuinely hope it remakes (pun very much intended
) the world...

The news has been full of talk about body positivity being finished, and the truth is that a great many people are enjoying the pay-off from approaches that genuinely work. At one point Lizzo was a vocal body-positive celebrity, as far as I know.
That South Park joke is what I meant — the doctor prescribing Lizzo 5x a day for body positivity, since Cartman couldn't afford GLP1s.
I certainly wasn't aiming it at her personally, nor at her personality (whom, honestly, I'd never heard of), nor at her body.
In that episode she was used as an example of body positivity. I also read that South Park said they'd stop making that sort of joke afterwards. (A big deal, given they go after absolutely everyone.)
One more thing:
While hunting for the image I came across a lot of articles where she "admitted" to trying GLP!s, only for them to make her feel awful, so she had to rely on other methods.
She really does look like a different woman!
