Hi Everybody!

Complete beginner. A woman, living in the US. Fitness was a big part of my earlier years, and a fairly healthy lifestyle has been my norm, with the odd club night and drink thrown in — no judging 🤪 lol. These days, with 48 nearly here and my hormones making life difficult, the downhill slide in my energy, my ability to lean out, muscle gain and maintenance, and skin rejuvenation has been — and FAST! Over roughly the last 6 months, struggling in every one of those areas has become the norm, energy and fat burning/muscle gain above all. Even compared with 1-2 years ago it's far harder. My face feels like it's honestly beginning to melt :/ Peptides crossed my radar last year, though I couldn't be bothered jumping on them — no need, I felt. Things have changed though, and extensive research into the topic is what the last couple of months have been. Finding this forum has me genuinely excited, and I'd love to hear what the community can share: knowledge, tips, anything useful.
