Because nothing exciting ever started from a salad. ~ Me
I’m new here-Captain Obvious… But How/Why?
Spoiler alert: What landed me here actually began in 2002 and did not start with a salad as you’ll soon learn. I was enrolled in college studying Chemistry because everyone else wanting to get drafted first year into medschool, was studying Biology and I wanted to stand out. Also needed a back up plan if I ever needed to break bad. J/K. Anywho, I was young and stupid and became an oven for a little bun who I love dearly but cost me my physique as buns tend to do. Two things happened concurrently. I got fat and dreams of medschool becoming Dr. Cmoney died in utero at conception of said bun. I tried all the things. Crash/fad dieting, personal trainers, meal replacement shakes, then I found a doctor that was passing out phentermine like samples at Costco… and I lost half of my pregnancy weight. Yay me! Then along came another bun. Back to fat plus some with bun #2. Went back to the doctor lost most of again. And boom. Bun #3. -_- immediately secured a tubal ligation because what in the actual fffffffff?!? Now my buns are 22, 19, 16. So I was fat or pregnant for 6 years and never lost it.. tried all the lovely RX stimulants but was never able to cross thru the healthy BMI threshold again.. But I’m not a quitter. Couple of years ago I started seeing influencers rave about Semi. But they’re only losing 10-15 lbs. I needed to lose over a hundred just to reach their level… So I was certain the shots were fugazi and never looked into it deeply. But found a new stimulant pushing doc Jan 2025 but she said if I tried the shots my office visits would be free and I’d get the stimulants I wanted. So whatever. I did it. It shut her up. I wasn’t expecting much to come of it. Fast forward to 3 days shy of a year on Triz and I sit here typing this in a size small, 84lbs lost and overwhelmingly proud of myself. SW: 238 CW: 154 GW: 125
However, the last month or so I’ve stalled. Mind you I’ve not really put in effort in eating better or prioritizing protein or working out. So I’m now skinny fat.. and plateauing at skinny fat, sucks!! I did go run labs. Healthy as a skinny fat horse could be.. but tired, with compound vitamin deficiency, muscle loss, you know the story. But my plan was to hit 135-140 and roll back the Triz and really dig in on the protein, lifting, cardio to finish up strong at 125. But my doc then told me about Ret. Said it burns fat at resting and will give me energy. Winning! But then she pushed a PT blend on me and a Testosterone shot. She couldn’t answer my questions and tried to charge me for the appt, the PT blend, pushed a new pill and couldn’t answer transitional tirate dosage questions. Side note because I wanted to be a doctor, I shadowed them for several for months.. and I know they’re trying to pump up revenue also.. well after a year I was in close to 8k with them and they knew I was close to my goal and they got greedy and I walked out.. I casually had a convo with a guy friend/gymbro and he immediately knew abt Ret. And got me some from his gymbro friend. Perfect! So far… tried it. And omg I’m so freaking hungry. I miss the nausea and food repulsion but this is the miracle drug?!? So I accidentally fell into the peptide rabbit hole. Gymbro doesn’t agree to me being 125 so wouldn’t disclose the mg for my premed Brain to decide my dosing vs the gymbros. He also didn’t factor in the course for glp-ppl transition is different. But after BA Chemistry was finished, I went on to gather my MBA. So I’m no dummy. I might fallen off a turnip truck, but it certainly wasn’t yesterday and I’m an experienced GLP consumer. So I measured the reconstituted liquid found some US based clandestine sellers online to find the price points and calculated worst case and best case scenarios to safely tirate with no MG info. All of that is fine.. Found the honey holes, found the labs, learned a lot about complementary stacking etc. So at this point I’m well versed but hope to learn more from here and aggressively/safely reach my goal by being safe and knowledgeable in the grey area.
who knows maybe even one day help other noobies in return. I’ll make some progress pics available publicly and attach the links as I do them. But for now this is my into story from start to present. Thanks for letting me join and reading! -Cmoney
