Anyone else feel weird about compliments after losing weight?

I've lost 26 lbs and look better than I have in years. But I feel weird about it. Like I cheated? I know I didn't, the drug is a tool. But seeing people who've struggled for years without meds and then seeing me drop weight fast... I feel guilty sometimes. Anyone else deal with this?

My doctor had me split the dose — half on Monday, half on Thursday. Helped with the nausea significantly. Might be worth asking your doctor about.

I use 30g needles. The thinner the better for subq. Barely feel it. Brand-wise I like BD Ultra-Fine. They're a bit more expensive but worth it.

Same here! I had the exact same experience at 2.5mg. The nausea peaked around week 14 and then gradually improved. Hang in there, it gets better.

My A1C went from 9.0 to 6.0 in 6 months on tirz. My endo was shocked. The blood sugar control is honestly more important than the weight loss for me.

Following because I'm in the same boat. Week 25, 7.5mg, and the plateau is real. I'm trying to be patient but it's frustrating.

I got my COA from the vendor but also sent a sample to an independent lab for verification. Both matched — 99.3% purity. If you're spending that much, the extra $50 for testing is worth it.
