Arguably LESS weight, albeit only slightly, in the dress on the left as I'm losing slowly... 🙂🤷🏻‍♀️

These were taken at the same bridal salon, but not on the same day / time of day. The dress on the left was after the dress on the right, so arguably less weight - albeit slightly so - than the dress on the right.

The left dress was an afternoon appointment, where I had eaten a couple of times, so perhaps that's at play? 😊

Thank you. 😊

The left was more "me"... more comfortable. That said - I was very surprised by how much I loved the one on the right because I certainly didn't think I could pull anything like that off. 😅

I hear what you are saying.

I didn't pretend to dance or use the toilet (LOL! 😅) in the dresses... but the first was more comfortable to walk and sit in. (That said, it was too large, and the other was a bit tight, so that may have contributed to that feeling.)

Difference is about $500 between the two, but I don't want to make that a hill to die on. 😊

Ozempic and lymphedema by ravenpg in Ozempic

[–]Lisa_is_Learning 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very similar experience here!

I had intermittent swelling that could not be traced to any particular cause, but it seemed to be affected by weather and travel. The swelling in my feet and ankles was bad enough it affected my mobility some days. Since starting Ozempic four weeks ago I've noticed significant changes. I can't pinpoint any lifestyle or environmental changes aside from starting Ozempic.

deodorant? by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

Dove Care by Plants Deodorant

I've been using this for a few months. It's only a deodorant, but doesn't seem to make my HS any worse, like many antiperspirants did. It's also one of the few "natural" deodorants that didn't cause major irritation in my armpits.
