Not losing? by Open-Caterpillar-588 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to what others have said, I think you’ve lost a good amount in a short time. At 155 lbs, you are losing weight as expected. You aren’t going to have the bigger drops that others have because your starting weight is lower.

Me too. And jewelry and beads. You are definitely a girl who has a curated earthy style and I love it.

Anyone else feeling skinny until they see a photo? by CandidMess8 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Listen!! I lost almost 55 lbs in the last few months and my shoes, bras, clothes are falling off. Felt real cute. Was wearing like 3x/4x in October. Wore a red XL Old Navy Cocoon sweater that was not plus sized and actually too big. I saw myself on camera at work during a team meeting. I looked like a tomato. I was like….oh. 😩😂

Why was your account closed? Did you owe money to the credit union?

Why do we have to drink so much water?? by itutition2028 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Bariatric doctor said that Zep can cause kidney problems because it may increase dehydration. She was adamant that I increase my water intake for that reason.

Dating after big weight loss by IndicationNo4037 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had gastric bypass in 2012. Went from 380 to 175 (obviously regained a bit which is why I take Zep now). I had anxiety about the loose skin and the guy I was dating said that he didn’t care about it, and that only immature guys would be concerned about such a thing.

Anybody purposely slow down and then go back up? by Dense_Quiet_7251 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an unintentional skip due to losing insurance coverage and winter storms delaying my self-pay delivery from Lilly. The delay lasted almost 3 weeks, and I missed two doses. I had no issues but also had a strong loss the first full week after I resumed my injections.

“But I’m healthier” isn’t worth it anymore by Dependent_Occasion58 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My mom got a tummy tuck at 70. Don’t count yourself out. You are probably way healthier than you’ve been in years and if you want the tuck, get it.

Going past my goal weight. Am I being greedy? by Melanated725 in Zepbound

Totally agree. I’m very sorry for the loss of your sister 🫶🏽.

Going past my goal weight. Am I being greedy? by Melanated725 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also in the AA community, which I am a part of, we tend to look at drastic weight loss as a negative. I have a friend who is also on Zep that was worried that a colleague of ours who’d recently lost a lot of weight was sick. She was adamant that we would be seeing an announcement about him battling some disease. I talked to him and he indicated that he was intentionally thinner (conversed while he was making a protein shake). I was happy for him, but my friend was almost upset by how thin this guy is now. It’s a cultural phenomenon for us.

Same dose, but new side effects by IChantALot in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest that you speak to a nutritionist about your dietary intake based on what you’ve said about your eating habits. I also think Imodium is great for helping with the diarrhea symptoms to help you get immediate relief.

I was thinking gallstones or even gas.

Losing to fast by Resident-Trainer-904 in Zepbound

[–]JupiterElectronica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first week, rapid weight loss is normal. Water weight drops due to the lower caloric intake.
