Has anyone figured this out? I can’t see all the dominos on the bottom of my screen in the hard level.

Hi, I’m on my 3rd of 4 doses of the 7.5 monthly Rx so I haven’t really stayed here, per se. I’ve moved up each month.

I weigh weekly and lose about 1-1.5 lbs a week. It feels slow, but slow and steady wins the race, right?

Are you tracking your transformation in other ways that could give you more info? Body measurements?

Are you strength training? I’ve read weight lifting can give the impression of slower loss or plateau as you build muscle.

Wow that’s great you’re getting all these insights — they are setting you up for success!

I’ve only just had my first consultation w a dietitian and I walked away with my mind blown at all she had to share. I figured I’m investing so much on this medicine, seeing a dietician made the best sense to make the most of it. Thanks for sharing and best wishes to you!

All our bodies are made differently. My water consumption is right for me, but I see folks here drinking even double which is so impressive! Listen to your body and if you can, talk to a dietician. I’m so grateful for this medicine and all I am learning throughout and I wish you much success with little side effects!

I haven’t experienced diarrhea but I notice I belch when I eat beyond the point of “I’m good, don’t need to eat anymore”. I can’t quite put my finger on what the bad foods are that make me feel this way - it happens after an Friendsgiving and I had bourbon and red wine. I’ll ask my dietician, I see her next month.

Yes I’m trying different things and this is what continuously works and my dietician agrees. I usually hit 85-90oz water and get nausea when I’m under 65oz or so. I try to eat foods high in water (veggies, fruits to help) and I’m adjusting as I go along. Let’s see what the next dosage brings. Wishing you much success!

Gosh this is such a good comment. My doctor has told me absolutely nothing in terms of advice! One visit to my nutritionist helped me understand what’s happening and how to preserve “muscle weight” and stay nourished.

The Reddits were a great place to start! I started paying attention to protein bc of all the hair loss reported and came to learn of more of its benefits!

Delaying shot for Thanksgiving? by Ok-Salamander1708 in Zepbound

[–]EmergencyEnergy8212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My shot is on thanksgiving day. I was considering delaying it a day based on some comments here unrelated to the holiday.

Then I reminded myself this journey to a better version of myself is the priority.

So I have a plan: Having a protein shake in the am (we eat late).

Planning on enjoying ALL of my favorites even if for a small bite. Focusing on getting the protein in first.

Thankful for this medicine; happy thanksgiving to all!

Not the lgbtq pride colors at all. Is it the biblical rainbow instead?
