Well, now we're here, time to dig in.

Hello Meso crew and members. I was guided here by a particular discord about peptides and have been trying to learn more about what each peptide shorthand name is, what they're for and so on. I started sema with the assistance of a friend from another forum, taking a slow approach to titrating up on the med. I'm a fat, I know that and accept it, have had issues with it since I was a young adult and they added some psych meds for bipolar disorder and needed some help to counter the lovely side effects of some of those meds, and being put on a heavy dose of prednisone for over a month for a systemic allergic reaction, that netted 30+lbs. Anyways, point is I am trying to change these issues, sema and the discord are great support and information, but I want to have access to more should I start looking at things beyond GLP1s and Meso is what everyone recommends as the gold standard. Basic info 41, live almost dead center of the USA somewhere in the Ozarks, a fat bastard, disabled(if you want to know WTF is wrong with me, ask and I don't mind answering), wife is awesome, we don't want kids because degenerative disc disease in both of us(that makes doing a lot of heavy stuff a PITA too). Because of that we take in a couple Pitties, American Bullies, Staffies, Bull terriers as we recover from losing one, we lost our girl Rogue in April and reeling still, we are likely going to take another out of a shelter situation in January. I'm a bit of a techie, not super in depth or certs for it, but I find both the new and old technology interesting and like seeing what is at least hopefully coming down the pipeline soon that may change peoples lives for the better. But, mostly here to read more, watch a couple vendors I learned of from the discord group to see if they do any specials on the sema I can justify spending for. Who knows, in a couple of years may be able to claim no longer a fat and start looking at putting weight back on heavily in muscle instead of just maintenance of what I have currently while losing fatness. Can tell you a bunch of my ate up past, but I don't want to bore you all more than I already have unless you want to know then, again just ask.

So, thank you Meso crew and members for the wealth of knowledge you've made available and allowing a potato brained bastard like me to join! I'm off to rough house with Grayson and figure out what I'm making for Sunday dinner tomorrow for self, wife and sis in law. Hope you all have a great Saturday, stay safe out there in the insanity that is our world right now.

Hey bro! Welcome!
The pics of your doggies are awesome. I'm sorry to hear about losing your puppie. Of course, you'll find a ton of great & unique info on sema, GLPs, and a whole lot more here. As a techie, use that "search" bar to find them... it will keep you busy for weeks.
See you around!

Thank you! Yeah he's a cute lil bastard, love him to death. I'll attach a picture of Rogue who passed, she wasn't even 10 yet, damn aggressive lymphoma, one month fine, next month problems that led to a ton of medicine. About 10 days after that we had to let her go. She wasn't herself, seemed so miserable and wanted to go off into secluded parts of the house alone, assuming she was preparing herself for passing. But yeah, we took her in on day 10 and it had progressed so badly that keeping her around wouldn't have given us a lot of time, and none of it would have been quality time. She didn't deserve to suffer any more than she had already, so we had her euthanized, we were all with her, and loving on her, she went to sleep and then felt an emptiness when touching her and knew she was gone.

WHO THE HELL IS CUTTING ONIONS IN THIS THREAD???

I've been warned by some of the discord members to abuse the hell out of the search bar and not to be an idjit when asking questions. But doubt I will really have a ton that aren't going to be easily found.
