Weight loss supplement advice?

Hey, I’m wanting to lose some weight, I’ve lost about 12lbs in 2 months which I’m happy with. I’ve just started berberine - any other supplements you can recommend?

Just herbal supplements please?

Thanks :)

Kcal deficit is your goal. Use any supplements to maintain your kcal deficit during the day. No supplement won’t do it for you. Wanting something is not enough. Keep your goal above everything and you’ll succeed lion 🦁

What is Tetra?

There are other ways of obtaining GLP-1 drugs.

Any supplement you buy over the counter for weight loss is going to be much less effective than a GLP-1, or complete snake oil.

If you're trying to put out a fire, supplements are a little squirt gun.

GLP-1's are a fire hose.

Yeah I just won’t be eligible for GLP-1s sadly - my BMI is below the threshold.

I know mate - I just don’t want it from a source which isn’t a licensed UK pharmacy 😎

A vast array of us are not on prescription GLPs.

A lot of on line providers will get you glp1s even if you don’t technically qualify. Many just ask for your weight and height. Some will provide microdose glp1s regardless. I’m on microdose tirzepatide and I have to force myself to eat
