Hi! Glad to be here - hello to all of you. I am a male senior and have struggled with controlling my weight since about the third grade . I was in weight watchers for 12 years or so and was fairly successful up until Covid. Like most successful WWs, I gradually worked toward my own plan. I was probably part of the 5% or less that had success. My WW plan no longer works for me. My BMI is probably in the lower 30's so I doubt that a doctor would even write a prescriotion for tirzepatidefor me. I am interested in learning more about the peptides as a way to stabilize and drop some weight. A columnist for either NY Times or the Wash Post called the peptides used for weight loss "miracle drugs". I want to learn more.
