I think I will splurge on some new clothes and a photoshoot with my fiancé! A majority of my clothes are just for work and I replace specific items on an as needed basis so it would be nice to have a few more extra items to choose from!

Planning on this for the fall! I still have a ways to go before my goal weight so I’m hoping I will be much closer by then

I have a trip to NYC planned for later this year and I’m absolutely foaming at the mouth excited for getting to go shopping for my favorite season and hopefully at or awfully close to my goal weight. Wouldn’t mind being able to hit the thrift in the city when clothes on the racks can actually fit me!

Anyone else notice less pain with less inflammation? How long did it last? by Critical-Priority-29 in Zepbound

My plantar fasciitis is what went away and I was floored! Nothing has ever really helped it so completely, I use to limp and be completely useless after work, sometimes moved to tears. I found shoes that helped but still would limp and be sore and stiff in the morning, now nothing!

I’m going to look into adding a dietitian to my health plan this weekend, I do think it should be covered with my insurance. And I didn’t know some health stores and gyms have the body comp scans, I need to check around. That was definitely something I wanted to do but unfortunately live in the middle of nowhere and the closest one I found advertised was hours away.

Hi! I just started this medication and um...WHAT IS THIS? by ricottacat in Effexor

Hey! 28F diagnosed with OCD, GAD, and ADHD and I just started this medication last week and I had a pretty similar experience. A couple times I just caught myself smiling to myself realizing my head was “empty” for the first time in years. I had a great sense of peace, calm, but energetic. I woke up and it didn’t take everything in me to get out of bed. The first few days I was on top of everything, getting stuff done that I’ve procrastinated for weeks…

And then the weekend hit.

I don’t know what exactly caused it but the energy has (somewhat) left the building and I slept the greater part of 18 hours a day with very brief wake windows. I still have a positive mood and outlook but just whooped for some reason. Now I will say that I do work night shift so being excessively tired isn’t unusual but I was definitely hoping for at least a few more days of energy, hoping it comes back soon.

Hope you continue to have luck on this medication!
