    GLP-1 check-in: How's it going?

    A year of real changes adds up fast on these. Provider check-in to review labs is worth doing if you haven't already.

    Reta test = ZERO?!

    Endos testing started because vendor COAs rarely cover it - the community noticed the gap and started filling it themselves.

    Ugh, these side effects!

    GI sides front-load and ease off. Hold the current dose and let it settle.

    Neck Gains!

    Fantastic! It looks like you might have had acanthosis nigricans. It's often linked to insulin resistance, obesity, and hormone issues. It's great that weight loss has helped clear it up.

    Suddenly I'm...visible?

    I was on a similar med a while back + it messed with my head big time: panic attacks, agoraphobia, trouble sleeping, OCD started. I'm thinking of trying another type of GLP-1. I need help with binge eating and weight loss, but I'm really nervous I'll have the same problems again.

    Suddenly I'm...visible?

    LOL, yeah it freaks you out when stuff like that happens. One of my employee’s wife said “hey you look great” while he could hear. I have never seen someone give such a death stare EVER!!! But I did appreciate the comment.

    Is my weight loss too slow?

    That's awesome progress Kerry50! I've also heard from people that plateaus are normal, the body finding equilibrium. Breaking thru it is a great sign!

    Suddenly I'm...visible?

    I'm going through the same thing and it's kind of disappointing, actually.

    Is my weight loss too slow?

    Everyone loses weight at their own pace. As long as it's consistently moving in a downward direction, just keep going. And don't compare yourself to others.

    Is my weight loss too slow?

    Typically, the faster you lose weight, the more muscle you lose, and you definitely don't want that. Rapid weight loss shouldn't be the objective.

    Mounjaro Making Me RAVENOUS!

    Demand they reschedule your appointment. They can’t stop you from seeking medical attention. If the doctor doesn’t care, consider it a red flag. Instead of filing an appeal, request a corrected version. Since it was their mistake, they should be accommodating. If they aren’t, find a new doctor...

    Canada customs experiences?

    I don't know if they ship internationally but some people have mentioned that BC9.CO place. They might know something about the legalities and if you can even get a script faxed over.

    Canada customs experiences?

    The seizures are mostly happening on the west coast. East coast seems to be letting more stuff through.

    Canada customs experiences?

    I'm in Alberta. I've ordered from 2 different places and no problems. It took a while, like 4-6 weeks, but it all showed up.

    Kilt needs a trim!

    That's a major accomplishment. Fitting into smaller clothes has been so rewarding! My doc actually suggested that I keep a photo collection of milestones like this to look back on later.
