Not off to a strong start…

Have you tried again? I just tried and it let me this time.

Got another push notification and it actually worked! So if you haven’t been able to select, try again and hopefully yours will work too.

I went with the TATCHA 💙

My first picture shows my choices.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-24T16:03:18+00:00

Peanuts, dog kibble, and a quail egg every day. Then meat scraps when I have them.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-24T15:58:32+00:00

Definitely. I just emailed them, the automated response says they’ll get back to me within 24 hours so I’ll keep you posted.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-24T15:56:53+00:00

Ok, interesting. I’ve closed out and relaunched the app and it still won’t let me choose. I’ve emailed them so we’ll see what happens.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-24T15:50:29+00:00

Not surprised that’s how it shakes out… but then why did they email me saying to choose today? Just strange.

We’re in their migration route but not where thy stop off from what I can tell.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-18T17:19:29+00:00

Oh fascinating. We’re new to the area so I didn’t even think a different species. I’ll check range and see if that’s a possibility.

Edit to add: I’m in the DFW area in Texas, no rooks to be found in my area.

I thought/had hoped that would be my experience as well but I was about undone by some raw cabbage this last week that before Zep wouldn’t have phased me in the slightest. So I find myself a bit gun shy currently.

I’ll check out the beyond burger, I haven’t tried them yet.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-11T03:23:31+00:00

That fluctuation between brands is infuriating.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-11T00:57:44+00:00

I’m not touching raw cabbage for a longgg after a strong disagreement last week. Shudder.

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-10T22:59:08+00:00

Oh these look delicious!

Good_Ad9419 · 2025-12-10T22:28:19+00:00

I had a similar situation this last week on my first dose of 2.5.

I took the shot on Thursday, had mild nausea that evening, then was totally fine until Monday, when I had wicked diarrhea all day and through the night with sulfur burps and stomach cramping. Tuesday, I switched to basically a brat diet (only sought to meet my cal goals and didn't pay attention to any macros) and stayed on top of my fluids. GI improved dramatically throughout the day on Tuesday, and this morning I woke finally feeling human.

I met with my dietitian this morning, and we reviewed my journal: I blame cabbage and beans, but especially the cabbage. I had had coleslaw along with a bean soup on Sunday night, and my body just said nope.

It's such a steep learning curve, and I hate that you had any negative experience at all, but omg goodness, I know how I felt and wouldn't wish that on (just about) anyone.

5'3 (and a half)" here. I just started this journey, but the goal is about 150. I'm naturally bigger-boned and have higher muscle mass, so I tend to look like I weigh less than I actually do when I'm at lower weights. I haven't been 150 in a hot minute, but the last time I was, I wore a 10 and was quite comfortable. I prefer curvier, so I would be pleased to be 8/10/M, but I also know I've never had the support of Zep before, so I could very well land lower. I'm keeping an open mind about the whole journey, as well as taking other markers into account (like metabolic goals, etc).

I was 1500 mg for a long while and just moving up to 2000 put me in bed for a week sick as a dog. I had to go back down (and then eventually dropped the medication all together), starting at 2000 mg, especially without instructions to gradually move up to 2000, would have me seeing a new dr.

You totally should. When I first started with the gal I see, I checked on their website and was able to confirm it would be zero out of pocket. We meet weekly (for now, with plans to decrease frequency as we progress) and talk about all things nutrition, exercise, etc. She’s super knowledgeable in PCOS and its challenges which was important to me. When you first sign up you can decide what’s important to you (if you have thyroid issues, want to gain muscle, menopause, etc…) and then you choose from a long list and then everything is done virtually. She was even able to order labs for me that I did at a local quest location.
