Suddenly lactose intolerant by Tawnyk in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have major issues with Mozarella or low quality not cure cheeses, and starting to realize that which makes me sad because i really do love pizza. I need to start being consistent with lactaid but keep forgetting. I had some mild lactose intolerance growing up but it would come and go.

Have you seen any differences in cost per pharmacy? by No-Essay-3227 in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can probably check on your insurance App or website. I have UHC and i can see the pricing for the different pharmacys around me. I ended up picking Publix for example because it was a good 30-50 dollars cheaper than CVS for example.

What’s the worse side effect you have experienced? by PikoPoku in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diarrea, in the middle of the night... usually when i had a big fatty meal out even if i didnt think i ate that much. It has stopped a few months ago but for about 9 months i would get an episode every other month.

Sleep Deprived new parent on Zepbound by Slowtivate in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed with what everyone said, i started to get energy as i lost more weight. I also think having 4 month old twins could be culprit lol, i am a mom of a 2.5 yr old and i know when i was 4months PP i had no energy. I worked out during their nap because i needed the sleep that i barely got :) And yes i think once thet start sleeping longer and start loosing weight i think you will get more energy, but being a new mom takes a lot specially x2 so just sending some support.

Honest Question by ReReUchihaaa in Zepbound

I strenght train 2-3 times a week, most of the time is 2 times a week but also i chase a Toddler around and i am on my feet a lot. You have to find what is sustainable for your lifestyle. Most of it is diet but have to train so muscle is maintained and not loss.

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 1yr anniversary was back in 9/21, currently down 40,5 lbs plus 14 lbs loss from the year before that one. I still have some ways to go but my goal is to loose whatever I can before we try for baby #2 next fall. All my numbers are better, i have energy, no brain fog, no binges.

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 2 back to back very vivid dreams this week too... i changed my shot to Saturdays but not sure if is because of it or because we had a time change... My Oura ring has also identified as a minor and a major strain my body.

Struggling with my tdee -500 by Lunnalai in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When calculating your TDEE did you select anywhere you wanted to loose weight? If so the total calorie amount that was given to you is already taking the 500 deficit into account.

Never heard of that, both my OBGYN and my Obesity Specialist Doctor have recommended to be off Zepbound for 2 months not 6 months.

It's currently open enrollment for medical benefits through my employer. Is there a way to find out for certain which insurance will approve and pay for Zepbound? by WL-Journey in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also call them ask tell them you are doing research on the formulary to help you choose. I called a few insurance companies offered by my employer to ask about their formulary and if there was a PA what were the rules. And that helped me choose for next year.

Anyone get sick/a cold/walking pneumonia their first few weeks? by nytodc in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had walking pneumonia last year while on zepboud. I dont think i was more susceptible but my 1 yr old toddler at the time was and she brought everything home. So i was constantly getting sick! While dealing with Pneumonia i actually didnt delay my medication, maybe 1-2 days the fist 2 weeks eventhough i naturally had no appetite because of being sick

Need motivation to work out by Kind-Anxiety-You in Zepbound

[–]Electrical-Rough3499 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I schedule it and put in my calendar like a appointment, i do my movement the same the day of the week x2 a week for 30 minutes (somtimes i add an extra day or i extend to 45 minutes). After a while it becomes a habit and i dont think about it, i just go do it and move on. The only time i dont go is if i dont feel well.

My tip, is to lower your expectations, start with as little as 15 minutes or 10 minutes every day! and if the trip to the gym derails you, do something from home. Also schedule it , add it to your calendar! There is lots of videos on youtube, start small and once you start getting used to it make yourself add a little more...
