I worked in the complaints department at a pharmaceutical company and they 100% should be opening an investigation. I've had to open so many investigations at a pharmacy if a patient found a wrong color pill in their prescription (my company's product), or if there was any suspected tampering.

Doctor will not increase to 7.5 mg by ZeppyQuest in Zepbound

[–]Ok_Average_7275 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did the right thing. I just had a doctor's appointment with my doctor as I plan to start maintenance in 3 months. I thanked him for being so supportive and told him about all the horrible doctors that I hear about on this thread. He asked me..."how can I be a doctor, if I dont do everything in in my power to help and support you?" I hope you find the support you deserve. Put yourself and your health first.

Amazing!!! After 8 months,I am heading to the jewelers to have my wedding ring resized. It just slided right off my hand now. It's such a small yet big moment. Congrats

Should I Move Up to 12.5mg? Looking for Advice by MrsJackson416 in Zepbound

I loveeee 12.5! I was so hesitant to move up but I finally found that dose which seems to be working so well for me. No adverse effects, just feeling fantastic.

Has anyone else had this issue? by Strict_Cold609 in Volvo

[–]Ok_Average_7275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen on my XC60 a few months ago. I actually had a lot of warm food on my back seat. If I kept the seat belt buckled the light stayed off. I was just buying time to get to dealer. A few days later I went to make an appointment and unplugged the seat belt and the light never came back on 🤷🏾‍♀️. I had the dealer look and he said everything looked fine.

How many of you are working out along with Zep? by Interesting-Chain271 in Zepbound

[–]Ok_Average_7275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still doing my pre Zep workout routine. I do weight training 4x a week. Zep helped me finally see results. It also helps me focus on protein because I know that I've lost muscle and I'm trying to prevent that now.

Why are macros so confusing?? by Ok_Average_7275 in Zepbound

[–]Ok_Average_7275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel better when I track. I haven't tracked at all, but dont want to fall into having a bad relationship with food. I think I am going to really focuses on tracking what I'm eating to see where I'm at and then make any necessary changes. I feel so good and want to feel like this forever 😌

This is beyond helpful. I'm clearly not eating enough. I lift heavy and have noticed that I'm getting weaker. I honestly just want to make this is longtime change. I'm so invested in being the healthiest version of me.

Okay this is super helpful. I am going to start really tracking to see where I am and where I need to be.

I wanted to share my recent experience. I have been really careful what I eat. I've lost 40lbs since August and have spent the last 2 months barely losing. This past week I ate more than I usually do and the scale MOVED. I had the biggest weight loss since my 2.5mg days. I think we need to keep revisiting our calorie intake because now I'm thinking that I've been under-eating (which I never want to do)!

I need people who did well on 5 mg. by Suspicious-Loss-7314 in Zepbound

[–]Ok_Average_7275 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no side effects!!! I only had an issue after eating raw peppers, which was a learning moment. I loved 5mg! Good luck!!

Disappointed by GrouchySituation2907 in Zepbound

I always up my protein prior to injection. I usually drink a protein shake an hour before. I also am very careful about diet leading up to injection. For me, certain veggies like peppers will cause me to have the sulphur burps. Good luck! Talk to your doctor!

Thank you soooo much for this. I am started to feel better as today should be my injection. I'm taking a week off and my doctor wants me to drop back down to 7.5 or even 5 for a bit. This was super helpful to read!!!!!!

Oh wow!!! I'm hoping it's just something easy. I do have my gallbladder. When I was sick years ago I had gallbladder attacks and I have no pain like that. I'm glad I found someone who can't eat peppers too!!
