INTRO My Intro post

[PoolRat]

Hello all from the US Southwest.

Been on tirz since April and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done. Above all else just the comfortable control over my appetite and ability to just intentionally hit my macros has been very empowering.

I started at 205lb, 6’0” mid 40’s male, medium build. 40lb lighter than I was at 29 when I started a 15yr run of varying degrees of low carb living, but still carrying too much fat.

Below is a poorly formatted copy of my spreadsheet. Down 21lb. Never left the starter dose and won’t unless appetite becomes my problem. Past month certainly looks like a stall but feel like pants keep getting looser. Plus I don’t really want to lose so fast that everyone notices all at once. Working out with pushups and dumbbells 3x per week.

Goal weight is 175. Then we’ll see.

Got bloodwork done in July and it’s by far the best I’ve had dating back the 6 years I have charts for. Had been top end of normal cholesterol for years and bam it’s now middle middle of normal.

Came to this forum because I’m all about that forum life and lament that the whole internet has turned into quick disappearing convos rather than the wealth of knowledge that forums used to be for every niche interest one has.

Started with a concierge doctor today with a follow up to the bloodwork. Starting me on Clomid to boost natural testosterone. She wants to see it higher than the 525 I’m at now. At least 750. Sounds good to me. Also getting an IGF-1 to get baseline growth hormone levels before starting sermorelin and IPA. She hadn’t ordered it in the 1st round of tests.

Only other concern is the 8.0 hs-CRP inflammation marker. Not sure what caused that but between supplements and KLOW I’ll be interested to track it on quarterly bloodwork. Haven’t started KLOW yet. Don’t want to add too many things at a time.
