Tirzepatide Compound

I started 2.5mg tirzepatide compound on May 28. At that time, I weighed 209lbs. This morning, I weighed 195lbs. 14 lbs weight loss in 2 weeks! I think it’s so much because I’ve cut out pepsi (I’d drink 3-4 a day), increased my water intake and cut down on my sodium. I’m eating around 1400-1500 calories a day and light activity. My knees are terrible so I’m taking it slow for now. I’ll start the 5mg on July 9 and will be interested in seeing if there is any difference noted. Right now, I’m not as suppressed in appetite as I initially was. I think my body is getting used to it. My goal is 140 or less, or whatever gets me to a healthy maintainable range. I haven’t been less than 160 since I was 16 (two decades ago!)

Something I found that has helped with constipation from the med is a warm cup on lemon juice first thing every morning. I’m not a regular person prior to the meds so that was one of my biggest worries, but the lemon water is working.

Anyone else on the tirzepatide compound and having success?

    Are you still taking tirzepatide and how is it going? I’m starting tomorrow with 2.5mg. I was taking it last year with success but had to stop due to cost and I’m starting again to try to get to my goal.
