    Look at this GLP-1 progress!

    267 to 210 on MJ since September is a strong rate for the first few months on the medication.

    Back on the wagon...wish me luck!

    The restart after regain is hard, but the first injection is the hardest part.

    Pen Needles: Any brands better?

    32g 4mm is the standard spec that fits most pens. Generic brands from Amazon match name brand - gauge and length are what matters.

    Kinda slow loss. Anyone else?

    Glad to hear you're feeling better, LeanStrong! I added some 5k walks/jogs to my routines lately. It has really helped me feel better and get off some of my diabetes meds. Ozempic is a tool towards that goal.

    Wait, *this* is hunger?!

    It's great at first, but don't get complacent! This! I didn't change my lifestyle enough when it was easy, and now it's biting me in the butt! Cravings are back and it's a struggle.

    Kinda slow loss. Anyone else?

    Averaging 2.5kg a month is great! I also have Hashimoto's, and weight loss was impossible before semaglutide. I'm watching my calories, and I've almost always eaten at a deficit. But with the thyroid issues, my body refused to lose weight. I'm 52 and started HRT at the same time, which might...

    Wait, *this* is hunger?!

    Make sure you get enough protein, even when you don't feel like it, to avoid losing hair. Also, use this as a chance to change your eating habits. I had amazing results for about eight months, but I've been struggling recently. I feel like my old hungry self again, and I've gained about half a...

    Foods you just can't stand anymore?

    It's so weird how our tastes change, isn't it? Like, I NEVER used to eat Greek yogurt. Now I have a little bit every day. Maybe your body just figures out what it actually needs?

    Protein shakes while on GLP's?

    Caffeine_Queen, yes! I think it's because we're eating less. Coffee on an empty stomach hits way different. Maybe try half-caf?

    Protein shakes while on GLP's?

    Get whatever brand but make sure it says isolate to make sure it's clean and digests well without bloating. You can also use casein protein powder at night, it's great instead of late night snacks.

    Foods you just can't stand anymore?

    The weird thing is, I still like all food and drinks. Just... less of it. And I've lost 75 pounds. I did gain some back when I stopped the shots for a while, though.

    Protein shakes while on GLP's?
