Why I LOVE Tirzepatide

I'm hooked.
I admit it.
15mg weekly of golden liquid.
And I don't ever want to stop taking it.
Here's why:
I am more alert.
I am more focused.
I can think more sharply.
I am moving my body more easily because my joints hurt less.
I have reduced from sitting on the toilet with diarrhoea 6 or 7 times a day due to Coeliac disease, to once or twice a day at most.
I have stopped craving sugar after every meal.
I feel 100% more calm and relaxed.
The noise in my brain that I lived with has been turned right down. And that is BLISS.
My brain is so much quieter that I have read my first novel for over 15 years. I missed reading so much, but I couldn't read with so much noise and loudness and skittish thoughts bouncing around in my brain. But this has gone, and my brain is now quiet enough for me to be able to focus on a whole entire book.
I've stopped thinking about sweet food all the time. It's literally vanished.
I'm eating easily, without any stress or worries. I simply eat when I'm hungry and stop when I'm full. Just like that. I could never do this before.
I no longer feel or experience any emotion attached to eating. That's gone.
I feel soooooo calm now. Mentally calm in a way I never have before.
I'm several stones lighter. Hooray! No dedicated well known dietary plan could ever achieve that for me.
As a result of the above, my self esteem is increasing.
My self confidence is increasing.
It's wonderful, wonderful stuff.
And I want to carry on feeling like this forever.

You don’t sound sooooooo calm.

I am hearing it helps with IBS type of issues from friends and acquaintances and also they are less interested in having a drink (maybe because snacking is out of the picture? I dunno)

I know it's easy to dismiss as just an easy option, same as having a gastric band was (remember all the fuss when Fern wassername had one, the enormous CHEATER, etc) that it is cheating. I don't take it, I have no skin in this game apart from seeing some of my friends transform their lives and their health.

I am glad it suits you, OP, keep going.
