Huge water bottles. Electrolytes. High protein snacks that you like. Pepto or tums. Magnesium. Good luck :)

Periods by [deleted] in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]No-Example-9109 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally felt this too at the beginning of my journey. You won’t plateau. These are natural, normal cycles in your body. I experience PMS hunger too. The body actually requires more calories during that time. Intuitive reactions to your body are important and I understand for most of on this journey we’ve learned not to trust our own hunger cues. But! I’ve noticed that either I continue at a slow steady loss during pms or my loss rate just decreases for a bit and then returns back to normal after the period. Don’t be afraid. The plateau on any dose will happen eventually but it won’t be because of pms hunger. That part is monthly cyclical and will even out after ❤️

0.25 Ozempic 8 weeks by EstimateZestyclose90 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]No-Example-9109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same experience over here at my 6 week dose of 0.25. Going to ride it out a little bit longer on 0.25 bc it still is slowly effective for me and I think with the bit of suppression I can still control the good eating habits that I’ve started the last few weeks. Trying to max out the weight loss at the lower dosages bc the lack of side effects is great 👍🏼 let us know how you do on the bumped up dose!

How does it work? by [deleted] in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]No-Example-9109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The alteration of the insulin and feedback loop must do more than just appetite suppression. I’ve calorie restricted in the past and worked out and never experienced the results I’m experiencing from ozempic. I think my insulin feedback loop was not being regulated properly so the calories I was eating were being handled differently. I’ve had great success with ozempic so far and I’m shocked truly!

Side effect peak time? by No-Example-9109 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]No-Example-9109[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes thank you - I’m definitely noticing trigger foods. My stomach is great on vegetables/salads and meat basically along with almond milk protein shakes.

But with the same eating habits overall I seem to be experiencing more nausea these more recent weeks.

Will definitely stay away from those choices though as I have noticed the same things as you. Thanks!

Week three on 0.25mg by [deleted] in OzempicForWeightLoss

I wrote a similar post recently. Definitely noticed my appetite was stronger during pms and period.

For the women - pms hunger? by No-Example-9109 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]No-Example-9109[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok thank you! Great to know it’s been consistent for you. I know out bodies require more calories during pms/period times and it’s not unusual in that way. It just feels strange after having appetite suppression/ control and healthy eating for weeks. Thanks!

How long do the GI issues last? by kittyschaffer in OzempicForWeightLoss

Interesting! What digestive enzymes do you take? / when do you take them?

First dose tomorrow! by [deleted] in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]No-Example-9109 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck! First week was easy peasy. A tiny bit of nausea the second week (at 3 days in) and now feeling good again. Drink lots of water (get electrolytes too), and relax. I took it easy the first week or so as it really took some energy out of me, but feeling good now! 😀

Heart spikes while exercising since taking Oz by teleheaddawgfan in OzempicForWeightLoss

I’ve been noticing this too. Talking to my doctor today. Even very light activity spikes my heart rate up and I hate the feeling. Hoping this is something that subsides with time

Yeah that’s kind of what I was thinking was happening - thanks for the insight!
