I dismissed glps the same way a lot of people do, believing they weren't for me and were out of my price range. After all, I'd dropped more than 100 pounds...on 2 separate occasions...through nothing but calorie restriction and working out. All I had to do was get back into my old routine. That routine used to mean feeling ravenous while consuming under 1200 calories and covering roughly 10 miles on foot each day. Even earlier than that, it involved cigarettes, about 1000 calories daily, and riding 5-7 horses.

However, shedding pounds as a perimenopausal woman turned out to be harder than anything I'd done before. I was tracking calories, I was active, and I was starving.

Over the last 1.5yrs, I had put on 50lbs.

My boss had slimmed down with Tirz, but I'd known that for years. It wasn't until I noticed my neighbor -a 50-something man of considerable size- had dropped a visible amount of weight in a very short window, and I'm familiar with how he eats and that he drives the 150 feet to the mailbox, that I thought hold on! Then when the refrigerated hims box appeared on his steps, I realized if he could manage it, so could I 😂😂😂

Now 2 months in, roughly 25lbs down through a telehealth, and here I am, checking out the world of peps, crypto l, and grey. Glad to be here!!
 
If that remark about "drives to the mailbox" had not been there, I would have suspected I was the neighbor 🙂

I am 1 month into Eli's Tirz, after an earlier month of "only dieting". Long ago I dropped 150 pounds, then put every bit of it back on (currently roughly 30 below that highest point). These days, though, my GP has left me no real option. So I will go with the official version. I will go with the compounded version. Should it come to that, I will go with the grey market. Once it loses its effect, Reta is what I will switch to. After that, the add-ons currently being tested. After all, when your GP tells you to update your emergency contact numbers . . . you realize how serious they are.
 
Same situation for me — I figured GLPs weren't necessary and were out of my price range... then suddenly they became both? A few months down the line, I've got a crypto wallet now 😆 Looking back, it feels like it was bound to happen
