Reading this thread on Can we talk about how hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 295 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

11 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 70 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

If you are on the fence about Can we talk about — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

PharmD_Rodriguez — that is really helpful context on Can we talk about how. Follow-up question: what labs did your doctor order to monitor this?

I am in a similar situation (just started) and trying to set realistic expectations.

13 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 52 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

If you are on the fence about Can we talk about — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

pete_nash — that is really helpful context on Can we talk about how. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?

I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.
