Hello. I could not figure out how to respond on the top thread either. I started Zepbound 2.5 one week ago. I took my second shot today. I lost 5 lbs the first week.

I've been on compounded tirzepatide for 7 weeks now, though I did have to skip one week for a medical procedure. I lost 14 lbs (total) the first two weeks, but since then it has been a more reasonable 2-3lbs per week. Tirz acts as a diuretic, which is why we have to work to keep hydrated, but this also means you are going to lose a lot of water weight/inflamation/edema the first 2-3 weeks. So enjoy the water weight "flash in the pan", but don't be concerned if the high rate of weight loss doesn't sustain beyond the first few weeks. It does tell you that you are defiantly responding to the med. I'm back on MFP because I can't rely on hunger signals to keep me eating enough!

Hello everyone,
I have been taking Zepbound since September 2024 and have lost 49.8 lbs and am at 98% of my goal, although I may extend it by another 5-10 or so. I went from 282 starting weight to 236 at Zep start, to 185 today. I am 5' 8". I have had terrific luck with Zep after trying every diet, every pill, every other method there is, and after also having a gastric sleeve surgery that was somewhat successful with an about 45 lb loss over a year. Today I am at almost 97 lbs total. This medicine is lifechanging!!!! Ironically, I just received news that my insurance has just stopped covering it and I am being switched to Wegovy. But I am equally enthusiastic that I will have success there, too. I am sending out great vibes to all for the best possible results and reaching individual goals. <3
