245 pounds in December, 43 years old. A friend mentioned casually he uses testosterone cream, about my age roughly. Down the rabbit hole I go. A few weeks later I'm on trt. Trt provider offers semaglutide. Onto sema I go. Itchy af for a week, and complete appetite destruction. January- down about 20 pounds. Swap to tirzepatide. No sides, weight falling off. YouTube kicks in with the content after searching tirz a few times. Late February, I find tesamorelin through a compounder. This was the beginning of the end for fat me. About 3 weeks into tesa, and I've dropped from a 36w to a 34w, started the journey at 38w, so we are rolling now. Come march, I discover ruo. Light speed body recomp engaged. Grab some ipa to add to my tesa, ss31, mots. Swap tirz for reta. I am now shedding weight so fast that I would come back my 3 days off looking different enough for coworkers to notice. By late April im at 190, the floor for my adult weight range. Every time id hit 190 in a cut, id flame out, and have fall off the wagon. Not this time, we still got plenty of gas in the tank. Come May, down to a 32" waist, weight in the 180's. Steady on the reta/tes-ipa/trt protocol, running mots/5amino on workout and hockey days. Total victory achieved by all metrics, but... theres still gas in the tank. Push reta to 4mg, push the gym even harder. Add slupp915 and atx304. Early June, 170's. Im now at the point of being below my weight in high school. Still gas in the tank. Reta to 6mg. Trt to my generously prescribed dose of 250/wk. Tesa to a full 2mg. Every day, waking up in the best shape of my life. In June I get shadow kicked out of a hockey division I had played in for years because nobody could score on me anymore. Early August - i hit 159.5 on the scale on a fast. Present day - im comfortably in the low 160's, 29-30" waist depending on the pants. My power to weight ratio has never been this good in my life. My physique has never been as good as it is now. Between gym work and trt/gh upregulation, kept a good amount of lean mass. Wednesday, playing a hockey game as a substitute for someone I played for while I was big, and I get hit with "holy shit dude, you are shredded"
First time in my life the s word has been used in reference to my body.
2026 has been one hell of a year.

My raccoon underwent quite a weight loss journey starting in January and by far the most intense period of it was when I introduced tesa/ipa. Its never gone over 1.5 tesa .3 ipa and it absolutely nuked its midsection fat. It started in size 38 jeans and is now in 30's

This seems to be going well

If anyone here is in the day trading space they'll get this reference - Trevor is the ICT of peps. Great nuggets of info hidden in hours of insufferable self important rants.

@Juliano546 no. Literally the only side effect I got was greatness. I ran it from .75 solo all the way to 2.0 with .3 ipa, no swelling no water retention just blast furnace level lipolysis and a visceral fat score of 1 or 2 on inbody depending on what day it is. Ive moved on to the big job juice (gh, also zero sides so far at 2.5iu), but tesa holds a special place in my heart

Been running this along with a mitochondrial stack. No issues, in fact, only fantastic results

Also take 304, 100mg daily, got it from Umbrella. Its awesome. I get more energy out of it than fat loss, the energy i get from it is very good and clean

@quicksilver80 I go into vigorous Steve videos looking for a little mito knowledge and come out of them like "I should microdose tren"

@Snake-Pepskin sell shovels during a gold rush

I went from being invisible, to somewhat visible

Tesamorelin. I don't really know what i expected out of it, maybe just a little help, but when I started that my little weight loss journey became a weight loss speed run. I was not ready for how good it was going to be.

2 sprays of adamax, 1 spray of selank amidate, 3mg tak653, 2mg Rgpu95 is what i use before I play hockey and the results have been profound.

Its just a supreme cocktail for me for full cognitive lock-in without overstimulation. Its almost like an increase in framerate

@Neil-McCauley dont get me started on pin prick tests lol I had a PSA elevation nightmare due in part to one of those. In person labs showed picture perfect levels.

Fwiw - the only side effect ive gotten from 2mg tesa has been greatness. Visceral fat is essentially non existent. I do get it that it isn't the same for everyone, but the point being 2mg does not automatically equal sides

25mg a day inj is phenomenal

@ResearchCat "the only side effect is greatness"

@denti Umbrella and Kimera. Ive been running it a couple months. 10mg 915 is like running way high dose 332. Fantastic compound

@juliano546 today's inbody

I use epitalon/dsip nasal to knock me out after night work. This has kept me from getting up at noon and being stuck awake from noon to 7am the next morning. I treat all my "before sleep" protocols as such and are done when I get home from work. Adamax and selank nasal in the fridge at work. Like your name, btw.. you play?
