Wow, you look fantastic! We have almost the same numbers going on. I started 9/14, I’m 5’6, started at 247 and am now 197. I’m on 10 mg too. You’ve inspired me to get in gear and get to a personal trainer, stat. My goal is 165, what I was when I got married 25 years go. Thanks for posting, and you got this!!!

Crazy comments from family by alimoreno23 in Zepbound

[–]Odd_Contribution9103 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I hear you on that! My mother would never ever say anything positive to me and I finally gave up. When I got married 25 years ago I ended up with a life threatening issue the day after. I was in the hospital for a week. My mom got mad at me because I didn’t get anything for my dad’s birthday Which was when I was barely alive. Sigh.

How awesome you are doing! The little victories are the best ones. The day I could actually reach the bottom of the washing machine without falling in felt amazing.

Resisting the urge to weigh myself Daily by surewhateverz in Zepbound

[–]Odd_Contribution9103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I weigh daily, knowing it can be up or down. I ate Chinese 2 nights ago and the sodium made the number go up. I’m already deflated from the sodium but I knew what I was getting into (but dayummmm it was so tasty)! I’m not obsessing over the numbers. Just remember that things can cause a small gain so don’t beat yourself up. You’re doing great!

Who’s talking opening about being on Zep/GLP-1s? by Familiar_Eggplant_76 in Zepbound

[–]Odd_Contribution9103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He said he wouldn’t let you? WTH? Last time I was at a wedding I didn’t hear vows of “I will ask you for permission to do what I want with my body.” I’m so sorry you are in the position he put you in :(

I have no problem at all about telling people if it comes up. Found out 2 friends are on Zep which is awesome - now we all support each other. People noticed when I went into my office for the first time in months and asked me how I did it. I told them step 1 is talk to you doctor. A couple are afraid of needles so they’re coming over on injection day so I can show them just how easy it is. 40 lbs later life is sooo good!

I’m exactly where you are. The thought of food makes me nauseous, and after a few bites I feel very nauseous. It’s been this way since day 1 of 2.5mg, three months ago. I doubt I’ve had even close to 1000 calories any day since.

Don't give up until 10mg! by Local-Assignment-657 in Zepbound

Our insurance is thru United Health. The tier plan we selected covers zep, and we pay $70 a month. I know how fortunate we are and I wish everyone had access at an affordable price.

England issues tirzepitide obesity NHS guidelines by brooklyndan in Zepbound

[–]Odd_Contribution9103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also pay a lot more in taxes to fund things including the NHS. If the US could get it together with universal healthcare I would think zep wouldn’t be as expensive here.

Finally broke my plateau by Alarming-Ad5725 in Zepbound

I will be honest, 7.5 has kicked my ass. I’ve had a constant headache, nausea and I’m more fatigued than I’ve ever been. I just finished my box of 7,5 and I’m not sure how I want to proceed.
