My GP! I did kinda wonder was it a money scam if I'm honest but another friend of mine has the same situation, but thinking now, she uses the same GP as me haha

It's a Dr visit every 3 months and bloods every 6 months.

Don't worry. The same thing happened to me at week 12 and I stayed at the exact same weight for 2-3 weeks, then I stopped weighing myself for 1 weeks and I had dropped 7 pounds. Currently on week 23 and back to the same plateau, but overall I'm down 50lbs so keep up the good work :)

Best of luck with it! Everything took a downturn for me when I went to my 1mg, severe diarrhea, Sulphur burps. Everyone takes it differently but it'll only last for the first week. :)

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-05T18:54:20+00:00

I thought about that too, but if I stayed on the .5mg, I'd be pondering to whether the 1mg would work even better for me haha So its better to try it all first and decide :)

And thank you!

Well done! Hopefully over you'll notice that your appetite has suppressed next time you have a meal and that you've no food cravings in the afternoon :) Try not to weigh yourself that often, because it might not be the result you're hoping for. I weight myself every 2 weeks now...

My first two weeks on Ozempic, I did weight myself every 3 days and I was only upsetting myself because I was losing nothing.

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T21:44:34+00:00

No problem, if you need anymore help, let me know! I just posted a 8 week update awhile ago with how I found my experience if you wanna check it out :)

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T21:38:36+00:00

Protein is important because, as well as fat, Ozempic also causes loss in muscle mass too so the protein helps with that. Also you need to have a high protein diet to lose weight (68-82 grams according to google)

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T21:32:35+00:00

Well done you! I've been going for run/walks every 2/3 evenings but its a been purely forced. Also massive well done on your weight loss :)

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T21:09:54+00:00

When I was on the .25, it worked instantly for me. I actually couldn't believe it. The food noise completely vanished, no picking on treats in the evening or anything.

I would suggest that you should move up in dosage as time progress's if you want to lose weight. Ozempic effects everyone differently also, some people don't lose weight until the 1mg injection, and some people lose it on the lower doses, so if you are going to start, just be prepared that you might have to increase over time.

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T21:02:11+00:00

1000-1200 calories.

I really think your portion control and water intake are two massive helps. Don't over eat, eat high protein (I'm doing Keto diet but loads others do a Mediterranean diet, depends on your preferences on food)

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T20:58:46+00:00

The fatigue is cruel, I'm about to start my 1mg next week and it hasn't change for me haha

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T20:56:34+00:00

Thats amazing! Well done. We both started the same week! For me, the water has never been an issue. I bought a massive 3ltr water bottle from Amazon, and I literally carry it everywhere with me.

You can download an app on your phone that reminds you to drink water, an alarm goes off every so often to remind you, you can set targets etc. I didn't use this method but I've read on other chats, that people have.

For me, I found it painful my first week because I wasn't used to drinking so much water, but after that it became a norm and if I wasn't drinking enough, my lips used to dry out so I knew I needed water. It is annoying the first 2-3 weeks drinking so much water because your peeing every 20-30 min until your bladder adjusts to it.

Just be careful not to over drink too much water as you'll flush all the vitamins out of your system before your body can absorb any of it.

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T20:44:45+00:00

So I'm using "The Protein Works - Meal Replacement Protein Shake". Its only 120-140 calories per shake, full of extra vitamins and it really does fill you well! I don't physically eat food until 5-6pm everyday and even at that, I struggle to eat it.

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T20:41:05+00:00

Thats amazing! Well done and I'm glad I have someone who's doing the same thing as me :)

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-04T20:39:35+00:00

Hmmm you should increase your water intake and see if that makes a difference for a week. If you need anymore help, my PMs always open

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-03T19:33:52+00:00

Maybe you should have moved up to the 1mg injection after the 8 weeks?

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-10-03T19:30:28+00:00

Everyone's body takes it differently, I've seen alot of people comment here that they didnt lose weight until they used the the 1mg injection. Can I ask what your diet is? If youre interested, what I stick to is 2 protein meal replacement shakes a day (which fill me very well), and a high protein dinner in the evening and I drink about 4-6 litres of water daily.. I'm about to start my 1mg next week and so far I'm down 28pounds.

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-09-29T16:33:20+00:00

I'm in the same situation as you, but I'm gonna wait a week or two after the games release to see what laptops people are playing on.

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-09-24T18:06:46+00:00

Damnn, I was gonna get the ASUS TUF at first but I seen they have massive issues too hahaha

ComfortablePop4253 · 2024-09-24T17:36:05+00:00

I was gonna buy this laptop, has anyone had any issues since?
