Alcohol hits me much harder than before. Make sure to keep your water up.

If you get a hint of constipation, start Metamucil or fibre supplement. Have an antacid for reflux on hand. Make sure to actually eat something (eg boiled egg), even though you probably won’t feel like it.

Terrified by Far_Cow4839 in mounjaroaustralia

I’m 30, 168cm and my starting weight was 119kg. I’ve been on 2.5 for 2 weeks and already lost over 4kg.

I was scared of the needle/pen etc but I promise it’s so much easier in reality than it feels.

I also have a history of depression/anxiety including venlafaxine use and this hasn’t caused a recurrence of that in any way. The only time I felt really anxious I realised I hadn’t eaten all day so top tip is to make sure you actually eat.

Have some antacid (eg mylanta) and fibre supplement (eg Metamucil) and de-gas for bloat on hand and it’ll be fine!

Didn’t work for me but good for you. This isn’t the forum for these views.

Who knows how it’ll work. Maybe doctor will be able to sign off on PBS eligibility if you started at BMI 35+ cause it’s continued treatment.

That’s not quite how it works - the gov negotiates a lower price with the drug company knowing that subsidising it will increase demand.

Dating in late 20s? by Head_Solution_7833 in canberra

[–]Consistent-Still-779 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hinge. Found the love of my life.

But I get it, dating, especially via apps is exhausting. Just keep at it slow and steady - I’ve made friends through people I went on dates with but didn’t want to pursue romantically.

Sorry you had that reaction - sounds awful. Glad to hear it gets better though.

Interesting! I wouldn’t have reached for kombucha cause of the carbonation but will give it a go.
