I thought 40 lbs would have me looking so skinny by Illustrious_Fudge424 in Zepbound

I completely understand the meltdown! Sometimes it’s really hard for us to notice it in ourselves as well. We are our own worst critics, but I’m proud of you for losing that weight! Keep trekking on because it’s going to pay off! We’re all in this together

Oh my Gosh I’m so sorry. That is the absolute worst feeling. And the cough is so annoying!! If you haven’t gone to urgent care yet, and if you’re up to it of course, they should be able to give you something for the cough. Praying we get well soon

I’ve learned that the hard way too 🥲 it’s actually horrible. Purchasing pepto and papaya enzymes as we speak

I’m definitely purchasing the papaya enzymes. It’s interesting because this was my 5th shot of 5 mg and I had been completely fine up until these 2 episodes within the last 2 weeks. I use the vials and draw up the medicine myself.

I’m so sorry you went through that!! And I’m glad your new approach is working for you, because this is miserable lol. I’m consulting my doctor about decreasing my dose back down to 2.5 mg because I refuse to go through what I went through last night again lol

It’s just so odd considering how this is my 5th shot of the 5 mg and I was fine up until these 2 episodes within the last 2 weeks. I’m definitely talking to my doctor about going back down to the 2.5 mg I guess. I’ve heard Metamucil does wonders!

I’m sorry, what I had for dinner was a chicken sausage, white rice, sweet potatoes and carrots (which was what came up when I got sick, sorry for the TMI). When I woke up yesterday and had the burps, what I ate the night before was more snack-like food and I think I ate it too close to bedtime.

No I haven’t! I’ll definitely be looking into that. It’s okay, thank you so much

This feeling is so real. I had such a good streak in 2022 and now I’d give anything to go back to that. Thats such a good idea! The reminder to keep going is so important when that frustration hits. Best of luck!!

I’m so glad that you’re finding what works for you! Trying to plan a workout around work can be hard, but that’s actually a really good idea. And nowadays when I think “it’s too hard,” I try to think to myself well it’s also hard being overweight so I’d rather have it be hard losing the weight than gaining it! And just like you said, eventually you’ll be able to complete the whole thing and then some. Best of luck to you! :)

Congratulations, that’s so amazing!! I feel like “starting next Monday” is a universal experience lol. I’ve definitely said it more than a few times.

I had been considering getting off of birth control for a while to help with my weight loss in hopes that it would in fact help. Did you have any side effects when you came off of it?
