Strength mattered more than looks to me back when powerlifting was my sport.
Two years back my wife walked out, I fell apart, lived on the divorce diet and added ozempic on top, working up to the top dose of 2.4mg weekly. Nine months of that stripped close to 40 pounds of fat.
Next I dropped the ozempic, convinced my progress and willpower would hold the line. That was badly wrong. Within roughly two months more than half of what I had lost came back.
Retatrutide has been my compound since, along with trials of other peptides, and the goal is more knowledge and hands-on experience while keeping the wallet intact.
Some before photos are included for context.
Stats: 5'9, 35M, 280lbs at the start, now 222 sitting at 9.4% on a Dexa scan.
Appreciate the welcome - glad to help anyone walking the same road.
