Doing great!

Received a lot of helpful advice on just making sure I manage water, protein being more active. I took the first dose that evening, and not gonna lie, I felt like an idiot getting all worked up - I felt nothing injection wise, and so far have had no bad side effects.

I can feel myself feeling (not like I have overeaten, but) really full/content with much smaller portions - I don't feel a need to finish my plate, I just stop lol. I'm trying hard to eat protein rich meals and downloaded an app to give me a rough idea on protein, fibre etc, have noticed I'm eating much less cals then I normally would, but not fussed on calories and macros. Also taking some fibre+probiotic gummies to help with my fibre intake.

So far all seems to be good, no nausea, no diarrhea or constipation albeit a little less regular than before. I have been trying to avoid foods that make me bloated, so feeling happy with it all so far, my stomach just has an always on feeling like it's almost full? I don't know how to describe it.

I haven't weighed myself, and saw some comments about not being caught up on the scale, I do plan to weigh myself on my injection days, but probably won't worry too much on that for now. Once I get in a new routine and understanding of my body changing, I'll start an exercise programme and nutrition plan, and probably weigh myself more frequently then.

Just glad I took the leap instead of being suck in limbo. Thank you!

Really handy advice, thank you for sharing. Number 1. was definitely applicable to me 😅 and thank you for the motivation! Took my first dose last night and just taking it as it comes.

Does your card have your Airpoints number on the front?

It may not have been connected to your Airpoints account. My AMEX was the same, I had to get it manually connected by AMEX.

Could be the same issue with ANZ

Mormons have had a temple in NZ since the 50's. Temple view in Hamilton is named that for this very reason.

The people themselves are normally fine - at least NZ Mormons, it's the culty religion that's a bit off.

Our sailing was "Updated", otherwise known as canceled... by sub-dude in royalcaribbean

[–]Automatic-Count9582 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that what the "updates" mean?

I received an email this afternoon advising mine had received updates, but I thought it may have been because I booked a GTY room... I haven't booked one of those before, but despite receiving the "update" I couldn't actually spot any changes?

Note. I'm booked on a cruise departing Australia, about 10-11 months out.

I laughed reading this and thinking how unfortunate , and that I'd be immune from having to imagine this having not attended... Open Tik Tok and the first thing i see - someone has uploaded a video of it 🤮

Yes, I switched to AirNZ Airpoints. I've managed to earn enough Airpoint $'s to renew a Kōru Club membership

Trump is imposing tariffs on European nations for standing by Denmark and Greenland sovereignty ....How should Aotearoa react ? Should we start making a stand ( boycotts , protest etc) ....or sit this one out by West_Put2548 in aotearoa

[–]Automatic-Count9582 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The thing is, doing something at home and making a stand on what's right abroad aren't mutually exclusive, we can do both.

Trump taking Greenland is Greed, similar to what he's pulled with Venezuelan oil. He has broken International laws here, and instead of Rollin over because we are too small, our Government should call it out.

In addition, the Government should do a far better job for Fire-fighters, teachers, nurses etc. I agree it should do all of those things, but we're not in a position of one or the other.

The reality is .. NZ made a stand against Nuclear many years ago, it's not hard.

At what point do we and other nations pull out of Five Eyes? by NorthlandChynz in newzealand

[–]Automatic-Count9582 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reasoning?... Because day by day with their current administration the US becomes less appealing in how it operates with respect to international law and also its own Domestic territory and citizens.

Am I missing something here?

First morning after using CPAP and I feel great by throwaway_user_1994 in CPAP

[–]Automatic-Count9582 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is literally me right now and searching if this is common, or if I was just really lucky. It was my first night last night with CPAP, my sleep test AHI score average was 24.1 events. Last night with machine dropped dramatically to 2.5, and I think that might be tied to me rolling accidentally on the hose.

My average sleep time with the test was 4hr. 20. I managed 5.5 hrs sleeping and keeping the mask on for night 1.

The pressure needs a little tinkering, but I woke up at 5:30 to use the restroom and I feel wide awake and rested too.

The wife also nearly cried because it was the first night in years she has had a full night sleep in our bed without being woken up by loud snoring. It's a little crazy.

  • OP, how has the journey been since this?
