Besides Semaglutide are there any other peptides focused purely on fat loss?

[Rosebudd]

I was just wondering if there's anything else I should look into. I'm currently taking other medications that curb my appetite (Phentermine) but my blood pressure went through the roof so i'm looking for alternatives. Sema is the most popular but are there others I should research?

I second that, 5 mg a week with 5 IU hgh is the sweet spot to control glucose and appetite both spike with hgh in my case and Tirzepatide does a better job w glucose than Semaglutide

Are you doing 2.5 iu in am and 2.5 pm?
I just did my 2nd injection of 7.5mg Mounjaro

I opened this thread and got into Semaglutide first then switched to Tirzerpatide. It has been a blessing SO THAT I can finally have a good caloric intake. I lost 24 lbs on it since I started because it helped control my appetite.

That's not because i'm lazy, I do martial arts, work out 5x a week, do my 10k steps a day...I was just always hungry and im not going to just eat salad and quinoa in order to fill up. It's just using tools available in order to live better, more satisfying lives. Nothing wrong with that if you can afford it.

Agreed! Same activity as you but have the appetite of a race horse. Mounjaro made me feel the way I assume skinny people do: Barely ever hungry and when hungry eat a small portion and be satisfied never overeating.

Whod u use for your tirzepatide?

I personally am not opposed to using sema in the next cut, but be honest. We are using drugs because it's easier. Everything could be obtained with a true cut. People cheat and expect results when hunger is uncomfortable. It is truthfully part of a cut. The real truth lies in how fast you gain it all back.

Have run sema shortly for a bit now to help the cut, and it was pretty effective for a while, but I plateau'd for a few weeks. Just added 3IU HGH this week and with no other changes, started losing again. Lots of people talk about sema and cjc being a match made in heaven, but I skipped the middle man and just went straight to exogenous HGH.

Seems to counteract the appetite suppression as well. My experience on sema was that I could absolutely eat, but I didn't ever feel the need or desire to. Made it hard to hit my protein goals.

The number of people throwing stones from their glass houses is astonishing. We are on this forum specifically to help us gain unnatural results from our training. So if someone wants to take Semi or Tirz to help with a cut our first reaction should not be to call them out on their life choices.

I am a retired bodybuilder and have cut for contests and other events. My current cut has me down 53 pounds and i can say it has been the most enjoyable cut I have ever had. Tirzepitide has been very good for me, i dont walk around punching people in the face,,,,as much,,,, and i am generally not as pissed off all the time. Give it a try, you will be glad that you did.

I will make a prediction, most if not all major names in the IFBB and NPC will all use Semi or Tirz in the coming years. It will become as common as Testosterone.

I don't think most of us are bashing on the use of these drugs to help. On the opposite end we are advocating they are not miracles and a lifestyle change is also needed. You shouldn't have zero grasp on what a proper diet is and then just hop on things. Similar to how it's not advocated to start aas when you don't even have a consistent training problem.

Many new members and the questions are replied with trolling but there is truth to it. Guys using nolva to combat prolactin. Using aromasin or adex and crushing e then saying how bad ais are.

Everyone you talked about has the fundamentals down, the influx does not, they watched a YouTube video and take it as gold.

I think I remember your user name. You should post more if I'm right

You are probably right, I have been here, off and on, for 25 years. I am not used to the youtube/Tick Toc generation yet. People definitely need to have their shit together before starting any protocol. This forum is so valuable, I have seen many bodybuilders not make it to 60 years old because they didn't have the insights available here. I guess I look at all comments and questions through that lens.... Helping people minimize the risk.

Cheers and thank you for the compliment.

Where is the ultimate Semaglutid thread?

Have anyone tried Sema tirz retra and can tell the difference which had been showed?

I know the studies and have tried Sema und Tirz. Know I'm thinking about to change to Retra.

Haven't tried retra but I've been on Tirzepatide for a little while. I'd be interested in a comparison too. If you do change to retra, please let me know how it went.

Careful with metformin, it's a miracle drug but the one thing it impacts is VO2 peak capacity, which can be an issue if you're doing a lot of cardio.

Setmelanotide has evidence that it can raise TDEE; worth checking out.

Likewise (not a peptide, but) Tesofensine the same effect and has a lot of evidence around weight loss (it's a dopamine/seratonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor).

Finally, best advice is to not get fat but once you are, it's likely a chronic condition you're managing for life so these meds are all part of the arsenal. (Latest research here on that: Brain responses to nutrients are severely impaired and not reversed by weight loss in humans with obesity: a randomized crossover study - Nature Metabolism)

The increase in TDEE from setmelanotide was only around 6% in the studies I read. Still measurable, but its not huge.
Note this will cause you to tan very quickly and noticeably, if you are a man you will also get random erections throughout the day.
