5, here is what the evidence says:The clinical trial data (SELECT program) supports this approachRea

Gonna push back on this one. My doctor wants to keep me on 0.5 is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 18 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.

Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But adherence is harder than people admit. We should be honest about that.

Adding my data to this My doctor wants to keep discussion:

Protocol: Tirzepatide 15mg/wk, resistance training 3x/wk, protein 1.6g/kg/day.

ingrid_STO — wow. I've been looking for this exact info for weeks.

Slightly tangential to My doctor wants to keep but AttorneyGrant reminded me — has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
