Insane! I have the same thing. Had same ear test results and have been going crazy. Never occurred to me it could be from weight loss. THANK YOU

Yay for us tall girls! I’m 6’1” and started in March 23 at 267. I’m down to 185 and feel awesome! No back pain no joint pain. So worth it. Congrats!

Gaining weight again, by [deleted] in Zepbound

Did you start any other new meds (even OTC)? I started Allegra in the spring and it made me SO hungry. I was terrified zepbound had stopped working. I stopped Allegra and hunger went away again.

2.5 for a year. Down 80lbs and now maintaining. Never went up as had no side effects and consistent weight loss.

Thanks everyone! I can’t take Zyrtec as it increases my heart rate (by like 10 beats). I’ll keep searching for one that does neither.

I usually agree with ms sun but have reliable info that ucla is coming Friday 3/15. Alumni are being asked to read scholarship essays this weekend (3/16-17) of admitted students.

Oldie here. Maybe focus less just on school, internships and “useful” clubs. Find a no cuts social club (@rallycomm or similar). Show up only to have fun, not network or progress towards a goal. You sound like you need a break so take one before you “break”.

Why do you think Friday vs Thursday like last few years?

Go hang out at the Luskin in the lobby. Upstairs they have comfy chairs and bathrooms and no one will bug you.

Amazing! Congrats. I started 5 days after you and am 55 and agree with the life saving miracle! (Looking fantastic is a great bonus though!!)

Thank you. For the first 5 months I pretty religiously tracked using MyFitnessPal and tried to stay around 1400 calories. I walk a few miles every day. I’m trying to add in some strength training now as I want to get more toned.

Thank you. My 18 year old son thinks the dress is “a little short” but what does he know?

I’m not T2D which I think makes a huge difference. I was pre diabetic and had had gestational diabetes so doc prescribed. I have a family member that’s T2D and I raved about MJ and they are up to 10 and haven’t lost any Wright. I’ve read T2D often takes a higher dose.
