    Finally feel like ME again!

    chickpea-month651 the cost point is something a lot of people do not talk about openly. Feeling grateful for access while knowing it is out of reach for others is a weird mix. Glad it is working for you.

    7+ months in - slow but steady!

    38 in 7.5 months at a pound a week is one of the more sustainable paces - slow loss tracks better for body composition than aggressive phases.

    Protein is Key!

    Split-dosing for side effect management is underutilized. Having two people managing it in the same household gives you useful comparison data. Satiety holding at a plateau is the signal the medication is still working even when the scale isn't moving.

    Ozempic & the Big 'C' - what's working?

    I hadn't heard that Mix-Good was putting the psyllium in his mouth dry! That sounds super dangerous! I know someone whose IBS went away completely on Ozempic. So weird how it affects everyone differently.

    Ozempic & the Big 'C' - what's working?

    I've been taking psyllium husk capsules for about a week to support my gut while using ozempic. I was taking magnesium citrate and a super enzyme pill to help with regular bowel movements, but things were still not fully formed. Once I started the fiber pills, I had two normal BMs...just like...

    Ozempic & the Big 'C' - what's working?

    It all boils down to fiber. Sustained fiber consumption, irrespective of source, is key. I like chia seeds in my morning oatmeal or making chia pudding as a snack. I also enjoy dried dates, usually 1-3 a day. Constipation is rare for me since my diet focuses on fiber-rich foods. Prioritize...

    GLP-1 Slow Start - Anyone Else?

    Remember it's a marathon, not a sprint! Slow and steady wins the race, as they say. Don't lose heart!

    GLP-1 Slow Start - Anyone Else?

    That's good to know! It gives me hope that things will pick up once I increase my dose.

    GLP-1 Slow Start - Anyone Else?

    I dropped about 20 pounds over 3 months on 0.25mg. And then stalled completely for the next 3 months. These things happen. You're doing everything right with the exercises, and protein. It could just take a bit more time, or a slight increase in dose. But you are on the right path. Happy...
