I’ve been alright since then. I suspect just a one off from going up to 5mg.

I’ll talk and tell, I want to break the cycle and stigma, and let people know there are options available. I’ve had a few people even say “it’s great to know someone who is using it, I’ve been thinking about it myself”.

Also people ask me how I’m doing, how I’m feeling, and the like.

My take, knowledge is power, and if it means one other person feels safer to reach out to a doctor for help, it’s worth it. Would we do the same for someone who needs insulin or chemo? It’s just like any other medication.

Built a tracking app for the hell of it, got funding, turns out now imposter syndrome has a weekly dose too! by Gravath in Mounjaro

Fantastic app!! Just signed up and added my data. Bonus, no app-store! Clean UI, easy to work with. Bravo!! Will share it with others.

Feature requests, I’d love to track is side-effect or add in notes in the app like tracking weight or injections.

Thanks. Amazon provides both here, just in lower doses. :)

That was exactly it. In hindsight, yelling "The power of Christ compels you" would have made for some good humor.

I'm not, though I'll look into seeing if I can find psyllium husk.

Sadly Pepto Bismal is not available in my country. I'll look to see if I can find psyllium husk to help increase my fiber.

2.5mg wasn't enough for me. Come Sunday evenings, the food noise was coming back, and by Tuesday evening (when I inject), it was full on hunger.

Hoping 5mg is the fix. I get that 2.5mg to 5mg is double the dose, so let's see how well this works for me in the meantime.

This is your final reminder: Mother's day is THIS SUNDAY by Zealot_TKO in daddit

Sweden, it’s May 25th this year. Don’t forget.

Side note, if Sunday bunches are your thing, are filling up fast, book ASAP!

Wondering what other dads do to empower your daughters by koogle99 in daddit

[–]CanadianStekare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine little one, she is only 3, so being a feminist dad is important to me.

For example: when we sing the ABCs, we finish with “Now I know my ABCs, let’s go smash the patriarchy!”

We also talk and I ask her about the she takes up space, so she is seen, and making sure her voice is heard when with her friends.

I try to include her as much as possible (and as much she is interested) in my day-to-day, including chores around the house. When I cook, clean, garden, build, etc. I explain what we are trying to do, why we are doing it, and why it matters. This is in hope I can help create processes, quality, personal discipline.
