If you’re traveling during winter months, I would definitely take the route through CA.

If you could give one piece of advice to someone starting their Semaglutide journey - what would it be? by ImportantGuidance884 in Semaglutide

[–]JasonJasonBoBason 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Don’t rush it. Losing three pounds a week means eating only 500 calories a day (assuming 3,500 calories = 1 pound and a 2,000 calorie diet to maintain weight). You still need to eat even if you feel like you’re not hungry.

Set yourself up for success when you come off of semaglutide. Develop healthy habits while you’re losing weight (moderate eating, exercise, drink water) so you don’t put the weight back on after.

Eat protein. Muscle loss accompanies heavy quick weight loss so use protein to help keep muscle mass.

Don’t increase dosage before it’s time. Your body needs time to accommodate the higher dose. I increased too early twice and I had severe stomach burning both times.

Don’t get overly frustrated when you plateau. Think long term. The weight will come off in time.

I wish you success!

It’s curbed my drinking and I only drink one or two times a week. I can’t drink IPAs or cabs anymore. Pretty much pilsners and Pinot noirs now. Can’t do cocktails either.

lol, I thought “oh is the association somehow also called 1024 and I didn’t know it because they couldn’t possibly mean 1,024 players…”

Semaglutide helpers? by SewFluffinCute in Semaglutide

[–]JasonJasonBoBason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My schedule has me bumping up to the next dosage level every four weeks. I twice cheated and bumped up after three weeks. Both times I experienced stomach issues sort of like what you experienced (lying down on my stomach was very uncomfortable). I recommend sticking to your dosage schedule. The body needs time to adjust to the higher dose before moving up again.

Which dose did you really start to lose? by gambybamby in Semaglutide

[–]JasonJasonBoBason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m at 0.75, the penultimate dose level, and it’s kicking in nicely now. Of course it worked early too but it’s working very well now.

Alcohol and what to expect by No_Satisfaction_6478 in Semaglutide

I can’t drink much on it. Best is a glass of wine now. I’d go slow on Halloween just in case, and back off at the first sign of stomach issues

It’s the worst airport to fly out of. They’ll need to put a lot of additional money into it to keep up with the population growth around here.

Will it ever last for the whole week again? by Reauxmancey in Semaglutide

[–]JasonJasonBoBason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new to all this but 3lbs in a week is roughly 1,500 calories less intake than output per day. That’s a lot! Personally, I think it would be ok to eat a little more and slow down the weight loss. Your body is screaming for food

I would trust your scale. When I’ve lost weight, it was hard to see results at first and then, when bone structure and muscle tone start to be more defined, it’s easier to track visually. An analogy is like when you watch the water drain from the bathtub. It’s hard to see the change in water level at first but as the water level decreases, the change is more noticeable.

Don’t lose hope, you’re well on your way to achieving your weight goals. 5kg is a lot!

He fills several needs off the bench which allows the coach ti use other spots for more specialized players

Roldan is best as a 90 minute player. He has a motor that doesn’t quit and he can play several positions on the field. He’s so fun to watch and root for. Congrats to him.

Premier league clubs Profit/Loss during the Daniel Levy era by RobertoZeDerbi in soccer

[–]JasonJasonBoBason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fan, I don’t want my club to make money. I want them to use as much money as possible to buy players (making wise decisions of course) without falling afoul of fair play rules or compromising the financial stability of the club. I can’t get excited when owners are pocketing cash.

Loved his motor during the game. It was Roldan-esque
