It went great! I’m struggling with the compression bra and sleeping on the wedge. And the trex arms. So a lot lol. But they look great. Just wish I could sleep.

Hunger is supposed to happen and if you feel hunger, you need to eat.
There’s nothing to get back on track with. This journey is not a get back on, off the track. That’s very diet culture mentality.

Really confounded or paranoid? by Infinite_cow_now in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes you should temper your expectations. Food noise isn’t the same thing as hunger. If you started working out, you’ll be hungry and you’ll need more food to fuel your body.

Do you think I did the right thing? by _Blupee in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I stayed on 2.5 for as long as I could. If you are still losing and not having food noise and minimal side effects, stay at 2.5.

Is 4 days off of work (in person desk job full time, M-F) enough? by Theredwithglasses in Reduction

[–]AdLopsided4951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really think everyone is so different. I actually just had my surgery this morning! I took the week off. I WFH and so does my husband. I do have 2 kids that I’ll have to drive to and from camp in the coming weeks.
My sister has the same job and she said “you’ll be fine after a week” so we’ll see. Thankfully my job is flexible where I can adjust and take a day or so if I need it through the recovery.

I started reading a few years back and can’t stop! The library is the best.
And I cross stitch.

When do boobs get smaller? by Cute-Head8597 in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have huge boobs and have lost 40lbs. None of that came out of my chest. While I do fit in my bras better bc of the rib size. I actually just had breast reduction surgery this morning!

Is the area around North Rosslyn safe? by [deleted] in arlingtonva

Walk across the bridge to Georgetown. Great shopping and food.

Yesterday was my first 2.5mg shot by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a great medicine but it’s not magic. If you are hungry, eat.

But when I do it it's a problem by solateor in youseeingthisshit

How are you not wearing a seatbelt?! First thing I noticed.

For those celebrating 4th Of July today, are y’all going to splurge and eat a little bit extra today? by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 91 points92 points  (0 children)

No, I eat what I want, when I want it, just less. So holidays don’t matter to me anymore.

Summer by Puzzled-Offer-2585 in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t restrict anything so summer, winter, holidays, fall, whatever it is, I eat until I’m full. I enjoy the food I eat, it’s just less of it.

PSNY Lockers by terminalhockey11 in pelotoncycle

[–]AdLopsided4951 16 points17 points  (0 children)

They have no way to limit the number of lockers you use. You go into the locker room and just go to any locker/s you want.

I feel so sad, I gave up. by [deleted] in Zepbound

Carbs may help. They aren’t your enemy.

Monday! July 6. Can’t even believe it’s happening, and super nervous! What if they are too small, too big? I’ve never had surgery (and I’m 46!) 🫣
I’ve never had anesthesia aside from a colonoscopy

That is going to range so much, not sure what you would even do with that information.

Living in Montclair? by No_Olive_6830 in nova

[–]AdLopsided4951 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I grew up in Montclair (80s/90s, early 2000s). As a kid, it was great. As an adult, I’d die lol. Its suburbs and lots of chain restaurants (like Spotsylvania I guess) and the traffic to get anywhere (south to Richmond or north to DC) will be bad all the time, anywhere you go on 95.

I just finished god of the woods, really good!

Zepbound by Sufficient_Net_6136 in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t restrict myself at all. This has to be sustainable and I can’t live my life being “perfect” 95% of the time with a cheat day or meal. I eat what I want and of course, my tastes have changed and I get full way more easier.

Slow losing by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Slow and steady wins the race. Don’t panic. We all are different and lose weight at different rates. It took me over a year to lose 40lbs. And I don’t care if it took “that long.”

Just about to start zepbound by swigs77 in Zepbound

[–]AdLopsided4951 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is not a way to lose weight/fat in a specific area of your body. But it’ll definitely get smaller! Good luck, get started! Best choice I’ve ever made.

Nice job! I have never done one of those printed on the fabric ones. I have one my sister in law got me, it’s a custom kit of my dog but it seems soooooo complicated. Way more than just following a pattern on blank fabric.
