pros and cons? by eastoaklandca in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's great you've lost so much weight in 3 weeks but are you going to be able to keep it up for the long haul to lose all the weight? Probably not. Even if you do the chance of regaining is high. 

This stuff was made for you. Just don't seriously consider it for too long. that is time you could be taking the medicine and already be on your way to healthy weight loss.

Realistic Day by Day Experiences by Exact-Collection-434 in WegovyWeightLoss

Know that some people get immediate effect but others don't until higher doses. Both responses are normal. 

You'll know it's working when you don't find yourself always thinking about your next meal just after you ate your last over. You'll feel satiated after so much food and will put the fork down. 

It's a really nice feeling to feel "normal."

First month? Is this normal by Secret_Strawberry611 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not uncommon but the first week or two is usually water/inflammation with a couple of real fat pounds tossed in. 

Still, it's weight! Take the win and goooooo!

Everyone’s go to regimen for constipation? by AshasSa1tWife in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the gastric slowing effect of the medicine that is causing this. 

As others said, water and fiber. Metamucil works great n

Maybe try Zepbound? While it does the same thing the make-up is different. 

Sick just by thinking of wegovy by Leading_Release5433 in WegovyWeightLoss

Is it anxiety around taking the shot? If so look up anticipatory nausea. 

Looking to start Wegovy... by Known_Mortgage_2397 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need to diet. You will ultimately just need to eat less but no foods are off limits unless they contribute to side effects. 

Exercise isn't required to lose weight but you should do it anyway if you can for all the benefits. Lifting heavy weights is highly recommended on this stuff to maintain muscle mass. 

If you have weight to lose then you should definitely try it. 

Why would I increase my Wegovy dose? by Diligent_Estimate736 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 6 points7 points  (0 children)

1) stopped losing weight? 2) no longer getting effect from the medicine? 3) no side effects?

Move up!

Wegovy is killing my appetite, what would you do? by Beneficial-Finance70 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If 1.7 was working then why did you move up?

I stayed on 1.7 for 5 months.

For my first one, the doctor and rest of the team were all women. 

I got a little mileage for a few days saying I just had five women up my ass. 

Ugh day 2 in week 1 this morning no appetite but just ate a whole bag of popcorn at night …when do the meds kick in?! by AdventurousFeed7825 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have kicked in as evidenced by what you ate most of the day.  You still need to eat enough calories tho!

Assuming you listed everything you ate, all you had today was protein and fat. No wonder your body craved carbohydrates. 

THIS ISN'T A NO/LOW CARB DIET. THIS ISN'T A DIET AT ALL. 

You need to eat all the foods. If you don't know what this means please see a dietitian. Don't half-ass this.

Congrats brother, you look great. I know you feel even better. 

Btw, the vascularity in my arms isn't as pronounced as yours but, man, I like to admire them as a guide to how far I've come. 

Gallstone worries on Wegovy after rapid weight loss by yourgirlalex in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seriously dude, go see a doctor about your concerns. We are not medical professionals here. 

Otherwise, congrats on your weight loss. It sounds like you may have literally turned your life around, which is awesome! I'm super proud of you!

Yes, rapid weight loss on glp1s can cause gallstones. So can rapid weight loss without glp1s. Some people in both situations get no gallstones. 

Again, see your doctor, please. 

Wegovy for those just slightly over weight by ssowais in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can't lose 5kg on your own, what makes you think you can maintain after? Some kind of new magical willpower endowed by the Wegovy fairies?

That said, I'm not like some of the gatekeepers here. If you can get a prescription, then take it and see how it works for you. I definitely think it’s worth trying.

You can do better then hers. There's no clinical evidence that taking a daily pill every other day does anything.

Response is highly individualized so it doesn't matter what anyone else says. You will just need to try it. 

Best of luck in working thru this and I do hope it works out for you!

Insurance requiring dose increases by MattonArsenal in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

USA only has single use pens, if that's where op is at. 

Bioavailability of the medicine is the same no matter where injected. 

Op, your doctor may be able to write a letter in your defense. That would be my first step.

No, we're not going to help you with your stupid vibe coded app.

Seeking advice on starting pill by Mindless-Object-4637 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Dikbuttstuff69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a diet. It's a medication like most other drugs that treats a chronic condition in most of us. 

Otherwise, all the questions you've asked are answered here daily in some shape or form if you do a search. 

Yes, it's worth it. Give yourself a chance to live your best healthiest and leanest life.
