Could you DM me too please!?

I've had a few good experiences with them. No issues at all.

I'm so jealous of people losing a ton of weight super fast! I've only lost like, 10 pounds in 3 months. It's so frustrating!

There's a site called GLPWINNERS dot com where you can find a bunch of online telehealth compounding companies...she can compare the prices from different vendors and check client reviews. That's where I sent my sister until she finally came over to the 'grey' side. She watched me drop like, 30...

Something similar happened to me! I think I lost close to 8 pounds, but by the end of the month it averaged out to like the same amount each week.

Maintaining is trial and error. You go down slow and see what sticks. It's not magic — you still gotta work it. Everyone reacts different. I lost about 15 kg and kept it off at 2.5 mg, took a break and anxiety hit so I went back up. Now doing 1.7 mg every 4 days and it's solid.

Thanks, everyone! T2D_Warrior_Jim and LeanLady No DEXA scan this time, just regular bloodwork. I will definitely ask about it next time. As for the specific biomarkers, I'm trying to remember them all, but some that stood out were cholesterol, triglycerides, A1c, liver enzymes, and inflammatory...

Hi all! Started on Ozempic around summer of '23 and got to my goal in about 9 months. I'm at my wedding weight, kinda crazy! What's even wilder, I did my checkup last week. The doctor had me do a bunch of blood work. She said that even though I'm pushing 60, my body's working like I'm in my...

Thanks Slept much better on night 2

Great shirt

RunLady, my doctor said that you can avoid a lot of the stomach side effects if you inject farther from your stomach, like in your thigh. I don't know if it's true, but I haven't had any side effects, and I inject in my thigh. I think it's safe since my doctor told me to do it, but let me know...

I'm on week 5, 2.5mg. My injection was Wednesday and since then I can barely eat. Nothing looks, smells or feels appetizing. I force myself to eat what I normally do and power through it. Solidarity!

No. I'd be way more concerned about the long-term effects of obesity or type 2 diabetes.

I'm not feeling any different, except maybe a little stomach upset. I started at .5 two days ago. I was expecting to feel something, but nothing's changed. Most people here say they felt something RIGHT AWAY. I feel so discouraged. Did anyone else only start feeling the effects later, like...

That's awesome!

I'm due for my second dose tonight! I had almost no appetite the day after my first shot. I only feel hungry at dinner time, and I eat very small portions. I snack on protein during the day, like jerky and protein shakes. Then for dinner, I have chicken and veggies. Drink lots of water and...

I'm more scared of diabetes. The GLP-1s keep my blood sugar and appetite in check really well.

That's a good point! Like, if I only lost a pound a week, that's still over 30 pounds in 8 months! Thanks for the perspective

I have a question for you veterans! I want to lose about 50 pounds...is that realistic on this medication alone, or is the diet/exercise thing pretty crucial? I'm seeing great results here but I'm nervous about starting.

Thanks everyone! Bobby45 hang in there! Everyone loses at their own pace, I've heard. Don't give up!
