When I am eating at a caloric deficit I will often go multiple days without pooping.

You need to get to a doctor PRONTO. You are suffering from a MEDICAL EMERGENCY!!!!

Ive been tracking weight since February using a GLP-1 app (Glapp). Just kind of interesting to see what I feel was a steady, healthy weight loss. Also the 1mg was ozempic and 2.5mg indicates the switch to mounjaro.

This didn't track when I started unfortunately.

Special note is that sharp drop when I upped dose whilst also on travel (I always eat less traveling for some reason). What I didn't expect was id maintain that sharp drop.

I would speculate it takes A LOT of effort to put on muscle mass at that later age, versus your 20s. I know for me its been a lot of work and taken over 2 years of exercising to do it. Not sure if its the same for everyone, but it probably would be.

edit: lol didnt see yall went into this conversation on your own before I typed.

Big part of why I'm starting Enclinophene before possibly going full injnecting T. Farm active and yet at 40, I feel like the strength I built over the last 4-5 years is actually fading.

The doc I talked to really was kinda blowing off the fears of nuking your own production, concern with young healthy guys boosting for the gym, but if your old enough to kinda need it, then your base level sucked anyways, and at smaller clinical doses, natural should return to where it was after a brief readjustment. It's cheap enough my only fear before I started this week was that ok what if country goes to shit and it becomes unavailable and I dont want to turn into 80 year old man in my 40's. But seems unfounded.

E and T both looking like would be around 60-100 a month.

Man, I've got peers my age using gear and its scary. They either don't understand, or they don't care. I have no interest in that risk and I'm only doing this for myself and my wife.

I do think my metabolism is perfectly fine right now. I expect it to get better as I ramp up the cardio activity too.

Ask them how much they are on, if they are near 50's and looking intimidating, then yeah, they are going over blown using more than just T, or too much T for what a hyper ethical endo/mens doc would be having you do. I'm in low 300's looking to only get up to 600 or so, vs most of these visibly built dudes are trying to maintain 1000-1200
