    Booze on Semaglutide - anyone?

    It's so true what Great_Ave said about not craving alcohol anymore. It's like a switch flipped! I used to look forward to happy hour all week, but now it's just...meh.

    Under 300 lbs again! 🎉

    Been on it since December, down 40 lbs. On 1mg now, waiting for generic approval to go higher. Only issue is occasional constipation if I slack on water or fiber. Had those sulfur burps after my first dose but haven't had them since.

    Ozempic success!

    Glute gains? nah, not happening. Never had much of a butt anyway. Got saggy skin now — bra inserts are my friend. whole body deflated look going on. But still beats the health problems I had before, so worth it.

    Down 100lbs in 10 mos!

    Nice! One thing though—your calves look a bit smaller so def try building muscle back up, especially if you're tapering. More lean mass = better health overall anyway.

    Protein shakes: flavor burnout?

    Protein bars back-to-back gave me a bloated, uncomfortable day with sulphur burps. Still recovering today so been eating protein slowly in small bits. Thinking of delaying my shot a day or two.

    GLP-1 online recs?

    Oh, and on the topic of pharmacies, I read somewhere that it's not required to stick to ones in your own state. Some pharmacies that specialize in compounding meds ship everywhere. Might be worth looking into if you're not having luck locally.

    GLP-1 online recs?

    One place seems decent so far. It was around $230 for two months, and now it's $290, which isn't too bad. And no surprise charges yet!

    Fluctuating appetite on Zepbound - normal?

    Sometimes I have to make myself eat even when I really don't want to. If I don't, the nausea gets worse. I try to do small, frequent meals.

    Fluctuating appetite on Zepbound - normal?

    I'm in my fifth week, and I had my dose yesterday. I'm also seeing that same pattern. It's simpler to manage my calories and reject extra food now... but I haven't had any of that "I can barely eat" experience that you see a lot online. But prior to this, I was really struggling and fighting to...
