[Question] 15mg — what am I missing here

Questionbranch of 8 comments

Asking properly rather than in a comment on somebody else’s thread: 15mg — what am I missing here. Numbers, in the order they matter: 15mg. Appetite effect for me is flat across seven days. On sema it was a wave. Same person, different molecule. The thing nobody warned me about was how much of this is logistics —…

sulphur burps are the signature complaint and they are not dangerous

That percentage is body weight change, not body fat. Different measurement, and the distinction gets lost every time.

Correction to my own post above — I said 12.5mg and I have been on 10mg since the spring. Same argument, wrong number.

Held 7.5 for five months. Everyone kept asking when I was going to 10. The answer was never, because 7.5 was working.

13kg over 32 weeks, never went past 10mg, and nausea stayed mild the whole way. Posting because the loud threads are all 15mg.

Reminder that nobody in this thread is your clinician and the sidebar says so for a reason.

About c/tirzepatide

Tirzepatide-specific discussion: the dual-agonist pharmacology, the 2.5 → 15mg ladder, the appetite profile people describe as different from semaglutide, and the SURMOUNT/SURPASS trial programme. Comparisons with semaglutide are welcome as long as they are specific about dose equivalence being unknown.

c/tirzepatide rules
  1. "Tirz is better than sema" needs a comparator dose or it is a vibe, not a claim.
  2. Vial-splitting and self-compounding discussion stays in c/reconstitution.
  3. No pen-cracking tutorials. Discussing that people do it is fine; instructions are not.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
