INTRO Greetings from DFW, Texas

Hey everyone,

Good to meet you! I don't have much practice with forums like this one, particularly using an account with a name attached. That said, I do lurk on BITOG and Subaru Outback forums, so I've picked up a bit about how things work. Anyway.

My interest in peptides is for weight loss, which I figure is the same for nearly everyone here. My personal journey began at 320 lbs. Through intermittent fasting plus 2 years of company-covered Zepbound/Wegovy, I got down, but my employer's insurance stopped covering GLP-1 drugs for weight loss. Last week I took my final injection. I'm sitting at 210 now, and my goal is 180 before I rebound with a lot of muscle mass back to around 200.

I'm a bit stubborn, and technically I could pay the cash-discount prices for all the name brands, but I still think they're way too expensive. On top of that, health insurance sucks.

Great work — that's real progress.

Honestly, all of that stuff is ridiculous. If you've already used GLP medications, just switch to reta and titrate your dosage to match. Folks in this community will quote you numbers way below what brand-name meds cost even with insurance — just use your head and set up a solid crypto wallet.

My starting point was 240, I've dropped roughly 10lbs, and my own goal is 185. I hope to feel a woman's touch once more at some point.
