Every great community starts with a simple hello. So let's do this. I'll go first. Hey, I'm Carlos — founder of The Weekly Dose. About a year ago I started taking Mounjaro after losing someone close to me unexpectedly. It was a wake-up call I couldn't ignore. I knew I had to take control of my health — for myself and for the people I love. Before I started, I spent weeks trying to research GLP-1 medications. And honestly? It was exhausting. Information was scattered everywhere — contradictory, confusing, and overwhelming. I couldn't find one place that just broke it all down clearly. So I built it. The Weekly Dose started in March 2025. Since then I've gone from 390 pounds down to 315 — 75 pounds in a year. My DEXA scan showed almost all of it was fat, with minimal muscle loss. (That one felt really good.) But it hasn't been smooth sailing. The side effects hit me hard early on, and finding reliable guidance on how to manage them was its own battle. That's exactly why this community exists. You shouldn't have to hunt across the entire internet just to feel supported on your journey. Everything you need — science-backed, judgment-free, and real — is right here. Sound familiar? You're in the right place. 💙 Now it's your turn. Drop a comment below and tell us: 1. Your name 2. Where you're at in your journey 3. Which medication you're on 4. One thing you're hoping to get from this community Two lines is plenty. Lurkers welcome too — but say hi first. 😊 I read and reply to every single intro. P.S. — Two house rules: everything here is educational, not medical advice (always talk to your doctor before changing anything), and no selling or med sourcing.
