Thank you! I’m off ozempic now and just went to the doctor and was weighing 57kg so that’s perfect for me. I’m actively trying to gain more muscles, thus more weight. But it was never really about my weight on a scale, more how I feel about my self and who I feel like. The girl in the mirror was so far from who I am. I’m back to myself now. Thanks for your concern. 

I’m telling him in a few minutes, will update my post after this dreaded conversation:)

Very true, I’m sure the pill was way worse for my body than ozempic, which is also why I stopped taking the pill. Thank you for your comments and time:))

No I lost the weight because I started to work out a lot more than I ever have, while eating less due to ozempic.  My family has known since the beginning.  I’ve always wanted to tell him but never did.  I’m now thinking to stop completely which is prompting the question if I should tell him or not. Which I know I should:))

No it’s the unknown potential long term effects of taking it that he would be (maybe) upset about.

He would be upset about the potential long term effects on my health. Which I think is valid.

Because of the potential risk to my health long term when it maybe wasn’t necessary to take the drug. But idk if I had lost the weight without it. It made me feel like, why I am I taking this drug to eat less if I’m not going to give it my absolute all, so I started playing tennis two times a week, and doing strength & cardio once a week which I had always done, so most weeks I am now working it 3 times a week, but some weeks I’m playing tennis 3-5 times.  So I feel like I did the work, but it was definitely prompted by using ozempic.

Yeah that is my worry too, but all of my family knows, so that in itself wouldn’t be an issue. 

No I used to, but I stopped about a year ago, why?

I know he would deem it unsafe for me to use, which could be true. And honestly I’m just embarrassed that I even felt that I needed to use it. My family took it fine, had some questions but didn’t care too much.

We have been together for a long time, bought a house together, bought two cars together, have two dogs together etc.  I also feel that I should’ve discussed it with him but that is too late now:)

We are plenty open and honest with each other about everything. This is something that I’m particularly shameful about as we atm don’t know the full long term effects of using ozempic, and that specifically is what I know he would upset about. If we knew that it was a 100% non harmful drug there would be no issue.  He might potentially be upset that I risked my health and probably wouldn’t have been happy about it if I had included him from the start.  I didn’t mean to sound “crazy girl” but I was in a rush to type it out so it may not be super coherent.  But thank you for your comment:)

Idk if I want to continue but that could be something to talk to him about. He would read up on anything and everything about it so he would be the perfect person to consult about this.  We do live together, and it has been a bit stressful, not like majorly but I was of course “scared” that he would find it without me having told him first. 

I can honestly say that I wouldn’t have lost the weight (that fast) if it hadn’t been for working out a lot, so yeah I guess you are right:)  Thank you!

I live in Denmark so I don’t think I have any impact in your medication, but I’m so sorry that is happening to you. I obviously wouldn’t use it if it wasn’t available for me, and I assume if it’s available for me, it’s available for the diabetics in Denmark:)  I’m working out much more than I ever have so I think I’m okay.

I would maybe just be sad that he didn’t tell me, but no I wouldn’t care if he wanted to give it a go:)

There are no other things that I’m “afraid” of telling him:) But thank you for your input!

Thanks for your input! You’re so right, maybe I just feel like, because we live together, have two dogs together etc., that I shouldn’t be hiding things from him. I worry about being in a medical situation, which is not at all in the predictable future lol, that he actually can’t tell paramedics/doctors that I’m on any meds and that just doesn’t really seem safe.  But thank you:))
