Hola,

I imagine a lot of people say this, but...I'm stoked to finally find a space where I know I can ask questions safely to a knowledgeable community. I've recently taken better stewardship of my health and I'm slowly learning how impactful glp's can be. (I know it sounds cliche, but i really am thankful to have found this space.

Welcome from another Midwest resident! This place is a wealth of information for sure.

yeah i'm really looking forward to unbiased information - i mean, i stay out of the comments sections on most (all) social media platforms b/c, 1.) they're not private and 2.) it just feels like the majority of knowledgeable people are 50/50 trying to scam you. And there's soooo much information out there (a lot of which directly contradicts itself) so it'll be nice to have feedback that's just plain ole informative.

welcome. information is the first step to finding clarity. this page is almost information overload at times though.

for me it'll just be nice to know there are moderators, members, etc. who're consistently searching the platform to keep out the scammers and turds that don't care about anything other than a dollar. Plus, i know there's gotta be a lot of people here who can give 1st hand experience and who aren't trying to sell me anything. I mean, i know there's no such place as a perfect platform, but if this space is what i think it is, then no more drowning in Reddit bs for this cowpoke.

yeah ive pretty much written off reddit and fb groups. worse yet insta. its like the land of blind being lead by a few guys with cataracts. only two places i regularly read for actual info are here and peptidecritics.

id argue the italian beef is east coast. the cheese curds make me think minnesota.

Da Italian Beef (pronounced EYE-tal-yon locally) was perfected in Chicago with the bun soaked from being dunked into the beef broth. Yum

I am blocking you because of the Lou Malnatis choice lol

But since the OP is from the same state as me, that's more pointed at them lol
