3 month update
Taking shot #12 tonight and feeling really grateful.
I lost 5 pounds before starting tirz, and 33 pounds since starting at the end of February, so 38 pounds total.
I’ve been on 1.5mg for 7 weeks now because I’m still losing steadily, so I haven’t felt the need to increase yet.
Right now I’m averaging around 1300–1500 calories a day, focusing on making intentional choices that I can actually sustain long term. I haven’t added exercise yet (that’s my next step), and when I do, I plan to increase calories a bit to support that.
Side effect wise, nausea has really been my only consistent one. It’s definitely there, but manageable and nowhere near bad enough to make me regret this.
Not to sound cliché, but I genuinely wish I had started sooner. I spent so much time feeling like I just needed more willpower, and for me, getting the extra help has been life-changing.
