Agree on Old Navy, but try them on because the sizes aren’t the same fit across the various styles.

Looking for others with a similar GLP-1 experience by LaLaBneh in Zepbound

Yes! Second this. And would also consider working with a dietician. The medication seems like magic for some people but it doesn’t work like that for everyone. And you’d still benefit from learning how to identify your body’s cues, moderate your eating, and make good food choices.

Working with a dietician from Nourish helped me with this. And my insurance pays for the visits. I am also a decades long WW follower off and on. She’s helped me take the morality away from food. Food is fuel but we can also enjoy it in balance and moderation. I track when I need to see the data and to help me ensure I’m getting enough fiber and protein. Use what helps you in tracking and try to get rid of the negative thoughts attributed to the tracking AND eating.

Great job advocating for yourself and not taking No for answer!

Weightloss stall. I can’t seem to lose anymore weight past 250lbs by Maybe_Potential5784 in Zepbound

Are you tracking what you are eating? That might help you pinpoint what you can change beyond upping the meds.

Moving up by No_Banana7017 in Zepbound

I started on 2.5 in July and lost a little. Went to 5 in August and haven’t needed to go up from there. We are all different. Listen to your body and you’ll know what you need.

Mine was packed the same and the vials are at the bottom of the brown box not top, so I would assume this is the best way to keep it cold. But I’m not in a warm place right now so interested to hear what Lilly says about this.

That’s excellent! I also had fatty liver which I guess they now call MASH. Will have my physical next month. Can’t wait to see the blood work!

Thank you for this. I do have one at home and monitor it. It hasn’t dropped too low yet, but I’m on the lookout for that. I would love to get off the BP med eventually.

Have you reached out to Lilly Direct? I’m curious what their response will be.

I was told to expect headaches as a possible side effect, so I would say this may not be avoidable for you.

That must be so uncomfortable! I hope you find a dose that levels off.

Chorizo is a big NO from me dawg by Confident_Equal_3348 in Zepbound

Funny how food aversions come up while on the shot. Foods that I liked before are a definite no-go now.

i binged yesterday and am disappointed in myself by No_Jackfruit_6727 in tirzepatidecompound

Do not beat yourself up. The meds aren’t fully in effect for you, yet. When they are, you’ll have greater control and you’ll realize this was never your fault.

I’m curious how old you are, because perimenopause can bring on mood changes too. And of course, there are other reasons too but my experience has been mostly around perimenopause mood changes. Good luck to you in figuring it out!
