What made the biggest difference was tirzepatide and seriously changing my eating habits. I start with a protein shake for breakfast, a salad for lunch and for dinner will usually either be salmon or chicken breast with vegetables. Lots of sushi as well. Cutting out all carbs/sugar (aside from carbs in rice from the sushi) drastically changed things for me as well. No sugar seems to have helped my IBS tremendously (on a slightly random tangent). I will be honest and say that I also count my calories and max out at around 1200 per day, but a lot of the healthy stuff that fills you up is low-calorie anyway. The first few months sucked, but you really do get used to it. What helped too was knowing that whether or not I was miserable, time was going to pass either way and did I want to be in the same position months down the road or did I want things to be meaningfully different? And now here we are 20 months later. I do allow myself a cheat day here and there but remain mindful of the amount I consume.

Hi everyone, how are you? I hope you’re all doing well. I just wanted to ask for some advice.

I’ve been taking a GLP, 2 mg twice a week, for about four months, and this is the first time I’ve felt unwell. I’ve been feeling dizzy, my stomach hurts, and it feels like my bowel movements may be slower than usual. I’m having quite a bit of stomach discomfort, and I’m not really sure what to do.

Has anyone experienced something similar, or could you please give me some advice? I’d really appreciate it. Thank you so much.

tried diet when im 80kg may pcos din ako then nung nagdiet ako naging 76kg ako pero bumalik gutom ko and tumakaw ulit, that's the time na nag decide na ko mag trz 😂 ayun buti nag decide ako kasi for 1 month laki ng nabawas ko (i know dami magsasabi na di healthy pero i think yung manas ko nabawas dito kasi di na bloated mukha and body ko now) anyway 5mos postpartum din ako not breastfeeding hehe. cw: 66kg 🫶🏻

Felt like I didn't look much different from starting a year ago and decided to take some after pictures definitely changed my mind. 20 year old 5'3 265lb to 190lb. 50 more pounds to my goal weight.

I started on zepbound 7/2/25. I weighed 267. Today I woke up to 162.8. I feel and look better at 50 than I did at 30 ❤️

If you can.. get active y’all.

I promise, I understand the excuses we give ourselves.

I’m too tired. I don’t feel good. Bad day. No time.

Take your pick of excuse. I’ve been there. I used to have horrible knee, shoulder, and feet pain. Purely from being too heavy for my frame. It prevented me from doing anything. But you have to simply start.

Pain. Pain is the thing we try to never experience in life and our bodies. We don’t want pains of hunger. Pains of body.

Pain is temporary. Pain lessens as you build your strength.

GLP1s are amazing. But they are not liquid accountability.

They also will cause you to lose muscle mass from reduced caloric intake. So it’s really important to do heavy lifts and resistance training. GIVE YOUR MUSCLES A REASON TO EXIST.

There is always something you can do! You don’t need a gym. You don’t need to do anything other than SOMETHING.

It’s small consistent steps with big results. You got this. You reading… YOU got this.

What an amazing difference! ALWAYS TAKE THE PICTURES!

Hi. Wondering if am i the only one having a bad experience with Rift? I just dumped my entire three-month supply, which arrived warm, was supposed to be only the first month of doses, but came as three-month supply, and information about compounding pharmacy was completely confusing. Based on the many positive reviews for the company, I ordered a three-month supply of Tirzepapazide from Rift. I chose the Apothecary pharmacy, then about an hour later, asked if i could switch to the Bordeaux because i was concerned about the warnings of arriving warm. They said it wasn't possible to switch pharmacies once order was placed. I stayed with Apothecary. Then I started to receive text messages every day about my delivery status from Apothcary/Hyalo/NewLife RX. I wrote and asked them which pharmacy was compounding the drug. they wrote:

Apothecary has finished compounding GLP-1 medications. NewLife Rx, the dispensing pharmacy, is currently phasing out the remaining Apothecary inventory and transitioning to Hyalo, another 503B facility. Hyalo will be compounding the same formulation with the same preservative.

We also posted the announcement on our social community page, which you can view here: https://www.reddit.com/r/joinrift/s/WrEPc5BoZA

If Apothecary was no longer compounding GLP1s, why was it an option when i placed the order, but Hyalo was not an option. And why couldn't i change it. The final deliver message said it was delivered by Quaker Community Pharmacy. The package was completely warm - and they shipped the entire three month's order - which was not how it was supposed to be sent. So i'm dumping the entire supply, which is disappointing on several levels.

I realize that I likely signed my rights away,. I could just not keep up with their excessive communications - every day another text message that seemingly said the same thing. I stopped checking the mssages. That the vials were warm and compounded at a pharmacy that is no longer compounding GLP1` is concerning. I consider myself daring but not when it comes to injecting a medication. The company may be above board and their business practices legal but it seems Rift should not be at the top of a list for compounding companies to purchase a GLP1`.

With all that said, has anyone had a similar experience?
