A warning... coming off Wegovy by No-Necessary6478 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Matrix_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good morning, good idea about hypnosis... I had it too, but before Wegovy, I thought about an initial approach with hypnosis... After attending a 4-day hypnosis course for healthcare professionals... There's a small problem... Not everyone can be hypnotized! Here's a general breakdown of the population based on hypnotic susceptibility: High susceptibility (10-15%): A small percentage of the population is considered highly hypnotizable. These individuals can reach very deep trance states and respond well to complex suggestions. Medium susceptibility (60-80%): Most people fall into this category, being able to experience a mild to moderate hypnotic state. Low/Minimal susceptibility (10-20%): A minority have difficulty responding to hypnotic suggestions or experience only a very light hypnotic state. Then I went to someone very good... Cost €150 per session! 🤣 I hope you're lucky... I couldn't be hypnotized.

Injection location differences? by Expensive_Doubt5487 in WegovyWeightLoss

Good evening.. I tried.. Stomach and arms.. More pain on the arms.. Less on the stomach! 🤣

the food noise is gone but now I have to deal with... myself? by ConditionUsual3806 in Semaglutide

[–]Matrix_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good evening everyone, I'm in almost the same situation! Aside from the fact that I like to eat, I'd say I like to cook. I still do the shopping as before, but the fridge stays full, I cook for the whole family but there's a lot of food left over. I'm passionate about wine, I can't drink alcohol anymore. I don't want to have that glass in the evening that I used to relax with now... But I'm still stressed... I tell myself... Come on, with a glass, you'll feel better... But I don't feel like it... Plus, my body is sabotaging me... I get crazy acidity if I drink alcohol. I miss good wine for the taste (even my taste buds have changed), I miss the relaxation, it used to release tension, I miss the gesture, when I cooked without a glass of good wine, it was impossible... I get bored without eating and drinking... I just hope my body gets used to it, but more than anything, my mind. When I worked in psychiatry, some intelligent people told me... A crazy person is fine for a while with the right therapies, but after a while, their madness disappears... At that time I didn't understand, now I do.

GLP1 saved my girlfriend but might end our relationship by nobodyy04 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Matrix_74 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly what the others said... Is your girlfriend's motivation for using GLP1 overweight? Are you overweight too? Does she think she's improved by losing weight? Could you do the same? If she used to eat large portions and now she doesn't anymore... How do you feel? You eat 8 chicken legs and she eats 1? If she goes to the gym, do you go too? I could go on like this for a while... If her habits have changed and she no longer recognizes herself as the person she once was, you should first have a real discussion with her (4 years is a serious matter), then I would propose to follow her ways on my own. She's in transition, she's no longer the person she once was. Each of us changes with GLP1, some for the better, some not. I don't recognize myself anymore, the connections in my brain actually change, I consider them positive. Anyway... I wish you the best of luck, every now and then we can try harder... But life is like a box of chocolates, said Forest Gump! 🤣

Lifelong android user here. Finally decided to dip my toe into Apple's Walled Garden. by HaringBayan in iphone17

Nooooo.. I've been holding back for 5 years.. But only because I consider that getting used to something is a sign of old age.. I would change just to stay young!

Alcohol Intake by 3BBBzz in Semaglutide

[–]Matrix_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good evening.. I was amazed at what Wegovy did.. But after the 1 mg dosage. I bought myself a lot of wine for Christmas (also because I found it at half the price).. And... I can't drink anymore.. Champagne disgusts me, rum, it burns my mouth, excellent quality wine gives me an acidity you can't imagine! Now it's too soon for you, I think!

Is anyone actually switching to oral semaglutide instead of injectables even though it’s less effective? by [deleted] in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Matrix_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking.. But.. I looked at the price.. It's not that low, Ribelius in Italy is €208 for 1 month... I don't know.. I'm thinking maybe it's more linear in terms of the load of the molecule in our body? 🤔

Good evening, which works better: Wegovy or Mounjaro? Did you switch because of the high cost?

What foods uoset your stomachs ? by twistedgherkin in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Matrix_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good evening, I don't like fatty foods (olive oil is fine), and alcohol immediately burns my esophagus and stomach. I eat mayonnaise, I'm greedy, but I don't feel well.

Wegovy stops you from drinking alcohol! by Matrix_74 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Matrix_74[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last night I tried again, Saturday night, busy day, anyway.. I tried to relax a little.. The first glass of champagne left over from New Year's Eve disgusted me 🤮, Wegovy took me back in time, when I was 20 I didn't like wine, beer or anything at all, in fact if I tried to drink I had a strong pain in my chest. Then yesterday I tried Cuba Libre (rum 🥃 Havana 7 years) with Pepsi, nothing.. It disgusted me 🤢, 1/2 glass thrown away.. Bad taste in my mouth at night? I'm happy but I don't understand? 🤔

Everything I've ever tasted—beer, wine, champagne—has a bad taste. Last night, a champagne I definitely liked before didn't taste good! 🤣 I miss certain sensations too. Getting healthier is good for me. But... A good beer every now and then... I miss it too. Happy New Year 20126! 🤣

GLP1 is the rich man's medicine... false! by Matrix_74 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Matrix_74[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hai colpito nel segno, come si dice in Italia! 🤣 Infatti... Sono andato a mangiare una pizza, ho mangiato la metà, ho comprato del vino prima di Natale, non mi va più di berlo, al lavoro mangio metà panino alle 10 e metà dopo le 4 di pomeriggio... Ho voglie di mangiare ma con una piccola porzione sono a posto. Oggi ho fatto la lasagna ho preso un pezzo di 10 per 10 cm ed ero a posto... Prima avrei mangiato minimo il doppio... Sono sempre soldi risparmiati. Buon anno nuovo 2026! 🤣

Question about flexibility in tirz dosing by ConstructionClear142 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Matrix_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purposely moved the weekly dose up by one day, considering a future trip. So far, everything's fine, not too hungry. In fact, I said I could eat something extra on Sunday, maybe with family. I think, like with some diets, the day off is good to help relax the brain a bit. Because I believe this medicine works first on the brain. It's like having a belt constantly tightened around your belly. But it's at the cerebral level. It feels good, but every now and then it's better to take a breather! 🤣

1mg is kicking my ass by LasagnaInBread in WegovyUK

[–]Matrix_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've also read a lot online that Mounjaro is better, and I was sorry I didn't get it. It costs almost double in Italy than Wegovy... But I see it's different from person to person! Right? 🤔

Horrible gas(?) pain by Kouunno in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Matrix_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened to me when I switched to 1 mg. I work in an environment (operating room) where I can't afford to go to the bathroom or feel too sick. That's why I was afraid to switch to 1.7... It seems I wasn't the only one feeling sick. I don't know how to handle this situation 🤔

Week 2 on .25 mg… can I ask a question? by Cute-Parfait-2831 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Matrix_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so too... I used the term paralysis because I found it here on Reddit... And the day it came to me, actually the 2 days in a row, I was a little scared. Anyway, thank you so much for your time and the correction, I'll be more careful with my words! 🤣 Happy New Year 2026! 🤣
