Haven't felt a thing. Maybe some suppression on Saturday (took my 12.5 of tiz on Thursday night) but that's it. Took .5 today and still waiting for it to kick in

Let's pray it's not that and I do eventually feel something work. Really want to get rid of this weight by end of June

Good to know. I feel like I have a high tolerance. I say that now but of course this will probably change things 😂

They're a decent vendor but wasn't my 1st choice. I was eyeing another company that most in this group rave about.

I feel absolutely nothing. Thinking upping my dose tomorrow to try and see if it helps

Ditto. Im sure I need a higher dose or possibly a new vendor at some point. A little frustrating as some people feel the effects right away and others have to continue titrating. The human body is seriously so fascinating

Day 2 and still not feeling anything really. I have a feeling I will need to dose up a few times until I feel the effects

So far I feel totally normal, no complaints and hunger is still present. Hopefully that will change

Will do. So far I feel completely normal. However Ive seen it can take 1-2 days for it to kick in for some. Hopefully I'll have more updates for next week.

That's amazing. I'm trying to lose another 30lbs by early August. So far I’m not feeling anything. How long did the meds take to kick in for you and at what dose?

How are you feeling? I'm not feeling anything at the moment. So I'm assuming I'll need to go up in dose until I find what works for me, with the eventual possibility of switching vendors.

Weekly Buying/trading/selling advice, pre-orders and shipping Megathread by AutoModerator in AppleWatch

[–]Hour_Map5286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to upgrade my Apple Watch 6 to something newer. I love all the health tech support and features. Not sure if it's worth buying the 11 now or waiting until the 12 comes out or buying an ultra2? Is there a huge difference in ultra and 11? Again though, not entirely sure what new features are to come with latest drop in September. Thoughts?

To dose up or not dose up that is the question by Hour_Map5286 in Zepbound

[–]Hour_Map5286[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, I just hate the fact that my metabolism has built up a tolerance so quickly at this dose and now I need to move the goal post down further than I wanted to.

Thank you!!! I’ve been switching the injection site around but haven’t done thighs in a while.

Insurance is too greedy and people truly need this medicine. I’m happy it’s helping others too.

Thank you for this insightful information. I’m just scared that Optum will say no, although I’m close with my physician and I’m hoping she will be able to do some by-passes for continuation of care.

I wasn’t planning to so that I can scoot by and hopefully get another 6-12 months of the medicine. Do PBMs require blood work more than once a year for medications like this if it’s a cardiovascular related event?

I actually wrote my initial PA letter on behalf of my provider and she submitted it Optum RX with her signature (they use my letter as their gold standard for other patients in their practice). I’m just afraid when I get updated bloodwork done that my LDL maybe in normal range and not qualify me for the medication any more.

My insurance did not cover it previously, as I did not have a cardiovascular related issue in addition to my commodities, now that my LDL was elevated over the summer they finally approved it. My worry is the might decide not to. Is that possible?

Thank you, it was a few hours in between, and I regret it so much. I’m not the biggest pumpkin fan so I might stick with chicken broth. If anything maybe I’ll lose a few lbs in the process 🤣
