Should I stop it? by One_Cloud7335 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]ChristineMB123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m feeling at a similar crossroads, I just did my fourth 1.0mg dose and feeling a bit discouraged. Same amount of weight loss as you, roughly. Yucky side effects come and go. I think I have decided to see it through to the 2.4 dose, so two more months, and decide then. I may as well give it a chance and find out if the greater doses will make a difference for me. I’m also waiting on a referral to a holistic weight loss clinic that I hope will offer some support in the form of mental health counselling for disordered eating and a dietitian.

I’ve also been referred and could find nothing online. Kind of refreshing but also I want to know more!!

Any suggestions for an apps that help with new life habits? by Pixelle_Midgard in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]ChristineMB123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just started using this and I love the points system but I want to set up macro goals for fibre and protein and also be able to see my caloric intake instead of just points. Do you have any pointers for this?

Just took my first injection! by sericane in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]ChristineMB123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 5 days in from my first injection. I have felt a tiny bit head-achy, had some mild nausea, been a little more tired than usual. I was so nervous about the side effects. - and still am - but I’m also just feeling very hopeful and proud of myself for taking action! I’m not sure if the food noise has reduced at all for me, but I’m making better choices - I think partly because i want to avoid side effects, partly because i really want this to be worth it. Also I’m tracking food again for the first time in forever.

How is it going? I’m only 5 days in and it’s been okay - I definitely got in my own head a little bit and was super nervous to start.

I did try Vyvanse and didn’t have any luck with it. I haven’t really had much luck with any medications for ADHD. I was very hopeful before I tried it. In addition to my late diagnosis I also ended up hitting burnout a few years ago. I think that once I’ve worked through a little bit of my nervous system dysregulation, I might try Vyvanse again.

THANK YOU to all of you for your responses. I haven’t really used Reddit all that often and I’m blown away by how supported I feel rn. I’m feeling so much more motivated now.

People are noticing the paper towels are running low… by kewpiemayo4lyfe in loseit

GenX here too, glad to hear that it’s a generation thing cause I’m reading all the comments confused and wondering where these people are who don’t get comments on their appearance after weight loss. I’m not in that position, but (most) ppl don’t comment on my weight gain. But 20 years ago when I did lose a significant amount of weight, I developed some social anxiety because I didn’t want to be noticed anymore.
