I just began my second month on compound Semaglutide. I've lost 12 lbs so far. The nice thing for.me.is I'm not dieting. I did take one week off the shot as I wanted to be 100% sure that my intestines were working. I'm a little scared of intestinal paralysis. I'm that week things were functioning just fine. about mid way through that week I noticed that I began to start thinking about what food I might want to eat. By the time I finally took my shot, it was nearly immediate that I noticed a difference in my thoughts..I was in the grocery store that evening, walked down the ice cream aisle, and realized how habitual it was of me. I looked at the ice cream and cookies on the other side, shrugged my shoulders and thought to myself. Nah, I really have no desire to have any of this. I believe my grocery bills are going down. Mainly, because I'm not buying as much. On another note, I'm also spending less on other goods outside of food. It's pretty amazing. Has anyone else noticed this?
ah yes the food noise being gone is one of my favorite parts of being on these medicines. And less shopping is something I have heard from other people too. It can lessen any addictive behavior. I dropped to one cup of coffee a day and I was drinking 2 or 3.
First month on Ozempic I lost 13 pounds. Second month he upped it and I lost 2lbs. Last month I only lost 1 pound and I was on 1.5mg and 1.75mg. Just switched to tirzepatide today. I’m on 5mg and 6mg. Really hope this works!! Also I go to a wellness clinic. No insurance. I paid $374 for a month of tirzepatide
@ thanks I hope so! I don’t have that full/nauseas feeling like I did on Ozempic, but I’m not hungry either. But I noticed the day after taking it when I woke up my neck, shoulders and back hurt. I looked it up and seen that can be a side effect. Just really hope this works. I was never overweight until switching to midnight shift then got on steroids for issues with my ears. Packed on 40lbs in 1 year 🙁

I’m so glad I found your channel. Thanks to you and all the information you give, I started my journey today. Thank you for all the tips and for sharing your experience!
Thanks for the information. I’m on compound Tirzepatide and I’m on week 4 of 2.5. Everything is going good so far not many side effects just a little nausea. I’m down 12 pounds so far and feeling great about it. I was shocked today because I am 2 belt loops back on my belt and that’s amazing. You look great I don’t know if it was the camera but you had a glow to your skin and I know you’re happy I can see it in your smile. Thanks again.
I just started Tirzepatide today. It’s only $75 once a week. I paid for 2 injections… One was given in the clinic and the other one will be done at home on next Friday.
Thank you so much for your analysis, it was very helpful! I was leaning towards tirzepatide too. Questions: what body part did you inject the serum into? I've heard that different injection sites may cause different side effects. How much weight did you lose in 4 months? Thanks again & congratulations!🎉
@@MadisonLoethen YAY thank you for your response. I just signed up with your code 😊 How long would it take approximately for the consult to be reviewed?
@@MadisonLoethen You mentioned in the video finding tirzepatide for around $150 per month. joinfridays price is $333 per month if you pay 3 months up front. Where did you find it cheaper?
I take my 4th shot of sema tomorrow night. Seeing my doc tomorrow for a follow up and going to ask her to switch me to tirz since I've had zero effect with the sema...I've gained 2 lbs on it...ugh. At my initial appt. I had asked her, after much research, to put me on zepbound to which she replied..."I rarely prescribe that!" I never got to ask her why so will be asking her tomorrow. If she doesn't prescribe the zepbound I'll also likely go the route of the compound through telehealth. Does Fridays add anything to the compounded tirz like b12 or anything?
So weird she wouldn’t prescribe zepbound! The vials I’ve gotten from JoinFridays are not mixed with anything but they work with 5 or so different pharmacies on a contract bases jn order to keep the prices so low so I’m not sure if all of the pharmacies do or don’t
I had some joint pain on my 1st dose. On the 3rd day it was fairly intense. Have you heard anything about that? I'm on compound Tirzepatide. When did you get the best help with food noise? I'm just starting, but I have done quite a bit of research as well. Just hearing others journeys has helped a lot. Also, did you notice any difference when you injected into your abdomen area as opposed to other areas?
I haven't heard about joint pain as a side effect before! The food noise is almost non existent for me days 2-4 after my shot. It's wonderful. I've noticed less side effects when I inject into my legs vs my stomach. I haven't tried anywhere else.
@@latashaakins-brown1820 I did the first week but it can be normal for it to take a bit too. Hang in there and talk to your provider about titrating up if a month goes by and you still aren't seeing loss.
America is craaaazzzyyy. In the uk, if you don’t meet the criteria to get it on prescription with the nhs (which would be £10 per prescription) then a one month supply privately, is £140.
I'm using Compound. It's from a pharmacy in the USA, regulated by the FDA. I have a Dr. who I meet with every month by phone. I had to send her my.most recent lab work before she approved me to move forward. What would be dangerous about this? It comes mixed, you just draw the amount into your syringe and then inject it. It's very simple and you don't need a degree to do this.
Thank you for the information. Im on Mounjaro 5mg and have been for a few months now. Do you mind me asking how much that would equate in price for the compound? Im fearful my insurance will be stopping coverage.
It is, especially those who are not dieting and exercising. They will bounce back and prolong staying in this medication. It's fairly new so sides still not 100 percent out there in studies for long term use
Yes tirzepatide is way better. I lost 24 pounds the first 3 months.. one thing I did notice I broke out a lot 😢
24lbs is amazing! You broke out more after starting the meds or that got better? My skin actually cleared up, probably because this treated my PCOS.

I’ve been on Zepbound since Feb 12,2024. I’m down 49 lbs. 55 pounds to go. I get nauseous every once in awhile but I do get dizzy when I stand up.
Congrats on your success! The dizzy thing happens to me sometimes too. A sugar free electrolyte drink a day can help ❤️

Hello! Hv u noticed a difference now that some time has passed? Im on my 2nd week of tirzepatide but hvnt had any loss of weight@@jeanchensmith4570
Try dieting and exercise
I'm on sema glue tide and I don't like it. I feel kinda sad all the time. I'm thinking of changing
I felt like that sometimes too. I think the fatigue it can cause can bring your mood down some.
What is food noise?
When you can’t stop thinking about food 24/7
Google will tell you plenty
Zepbound 2.5mg lost 26 pounds in 10 weeks so far, no side effects. Wegovy made me really sick nauseated 🤢
amazing! glad you are feeling better too!

that doesn’t make sense. compounds are just combined with b vitamins usually. there’s literally no reason to be afraid. sounds like a skill issue…
I heard Tirzepatide is no longer sold as of 10/2? Any news on this.
The FDA ended the shortage! I’m not sure what the future of it will be like at this point
Semiglutide made me moody and depressed. I’m starting Zep soon
Hope it goes well for you! Best of luck!
I didn’t lose anything with semaglutide it sucks!!!
Aw man! You gonna try tirzep?
I'm dumb.. why is a compound so much cheaper?? Are active ingredients the same?
Yes! They’re just made fresh at compound pharmacies and sent in vials.

ugh I know. The USA really needs to catch up.
I buy it in the US for around $200 per month from a compound pharmacy. It's just not name brand. I pay out of pocket. My insurance doesn't pay for it.
This compounding stuff seems very dangerous to me. Injecting something that is quite unregulated is not a good idea.
It comes from a licensed government regulated facility ❤️
