Well, it's done... I did a lot of digging on Reddit, and then someone told me to "go gray," so I'm officially ending things with both my telehealth and my compound providers. Once I realized they were charging at least 3x what it costs just to do the same thing myself at home, I got excited about getting into some new.peps and finally trying stuff I never could have afforded! It feels like they pushed me to titrate on tirz so quickly that now I'm maxed out and all I could do was pile on more supplements. Now, once I track down a solid source, I'll be able to test out the things I've looked into and get the results I've been wanting. My plan is to titrate down tirz, begin reta, and either stay on lipo or make the switch to AOD for fat mobility. If you're reading this and have any experience with these, I'd love your input. Before I go broke, I'll break up! Nice to meet everyone and read all the stories! I'll share any successes as they happen!
 
Welcome!

I ended things with compounders too, though sadly I'd built up roughly 2 years' supply of Tirzepatide and ended up throwing about 3-4k away.

Saying 2-3x barely captures it — that's actually on the cheaper side of their markups. I've come across offers where a full year costs close to what a compounder bills for just 1 month, and testing is already baked into that price.

Take your time before pulling the trigger on every offer you spot, and good luck out there!

Make sure you look at the COAs too!

That's a solid suggestion! I appreciate it! Happy to hear any ideas 😁
 
Welcome—honestly, the smartest move I ever made. Just be certain you check out any source, and always test or group test whatever you receive, plus learn how to filter everything. Also, there's no such thing as being too safe.

Truly identical for me! The prices I was paying were way too high, and at this point I'm just focused on doing this properly! There's a huge list of stuff I'm tempted to try, so I have to keep telling myself not to rush into everything lol

🙂 Great! I switched over too, back in December of last year! The savings are huge. Before, 72mg cost me 190, but these days I spend around 80 for 300mg
