RunnerRach — that is really helpful context on Creatine kinase. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?

Reading this thread on Creatine kinase hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 267 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
13 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 42 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about Creatine kinase — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
