I need to figure out the right way to do this.
A friend of mine lost a ton of weight in the last year and I asked her “What’s your secret, Ozempic?”
She said “No, it’s some Chinese knockoff stuff I get off the internet.”
Long before I found out that it was Tirzepatide I asked her to let me try it. So she injected me with a small dose (I really don’t know how much) and I noticed immediately how it curbed my appetite. After not eating for 2 days I forced down 4-5 chicken nuggets and it made me nauseous.
I threw them up the next day. So I spent the following 4 days just nursing liquids and smoothies. Feeling ok.
The drug wore off and I knew it worked so I had my friend order some for me. A few weeks later she injected me again with what she said was a little bit higher dose.
This one made me nauseous and throwing up for 5 days.
I couldn’t eat a thing and could barely hold down liquids. I almost thought about going to the ER.
That experience kinda turned me off to the drug but I’d really like to give it a proper chance.
So how much should I be taking?
