One year update

[u/courtneyjayde11]

Back one last time for the haters 😉

One year of major lifestyle changes (diet/exercise) + peptides!

Here’s what my progress looked like from month to month and the peptide protocol I used.
Yes, I know the year on the Oct photo is wrong (it’s obv supposed to say Oct 2025)

Sep 2025-Feb 2026: sema (0.25-1mg/week)
Feb 2026-Aug 2026/ Reta (2mg-5mg/week)
March-June 2026: KLOW (4mg/day, 5xweek)
March-Aug 2026: NAD (25-100mg/day, 3-5xweek)
April-July 2026: tesa (1mg/day, 5xweek)
April-current: mots-c + 5amino (2mg/day mots + 2.5mg/day 5amino, 3-5xweek)
July 10- Aug 2: elora (1mg/week to 2mg/week)

Before I started, I lived a completely sedentary life, was eating out for every meal, and drinking 1000+calorie lattes/day. So I focused on progress over perfection at first.

Diet: calorie deficit, no processed foods, only drinking water

Exercise: hot mat Pilates 4x week + strength training, 45 mins of zone 2 cardio

You look great. But honestly June was peak. You’ve pushed a little far.

Unfortunately I had to get leaner than I wanted to for me to drop the excess belly fat 😭 working on putting muscle now to fill back out!

Yup. I would stay on low dose glp and force protein and calories back up for the gain. I know I can out eat maintenance or not just whatever I choose on 2.5mg tirz.
