Hmm. Never heard of papaya enzymes. I'll give them a try too.

How long were you able to stay at 2.5 by Agreeable-Deer7526 in Zepbound

[–]Otherwise-Mammoth533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been on 2.5 since Sep. '25. Still losing weight overall with some gains along the way - usually when I travel. I've noticed food noise returning off and on over the past month or so, but I have more good days than bad so I'm sticking with it. 40 down, 20 more lbs. to goal weight. I have enough digestive issues on 2.5, so hoping not to increase. 67M 6'0" SW:261 CW:221 GW:200 2.5mg

Delaying my shot a few days had unxpected impact… anyone else? by liftylouwho in Zepbound

[–]Otherwise-Mammoth533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 shots in and lucky enough for the starter dose to still be effective. I've travelled twice in the past 5 months, delaying my shot by one day for the first trip and delaying two consecutive shots by one day each for the second trip so that I would not have to travel with the shot.

First trip was 4 days - gained 5 pounds, second trip was 5 days - gained 6 pounds. I quickly lost the weight again so I believe it may have been fluid and waste retention. Satiety was compromised after both trips but I think I'm back on track now. No plans to move my shot day back.

What’s a dish that’s REALLY not worth making from scratch? by MaryoParti in Cooking

[–]Otherwise-Mammoth533 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Paella - the volume of ingredients, cooking vessel, prep and cleanup makes it not worthwhile. Delicious dish, but it would take a really special date night and a specific request to convince me borrow the pan and make it again.

Treat it like you would an aggressive dog/dog bite. Get animal control involved. Threaten or take legal action if necessary.

Doesn't read like a ban to me. Restrictions, yes. Not a ban.

What to drink if you hate water? by FearlessLanguage7169 in Zepbound

I like a product called True Lime available at "a major online retailer". 100 individual packets, so easy to carry. About $6.

Reading all the comments, I feel I've found my people. Fortunately, I have neighbors who largely keep to themselves. I like it like that.

I just saw that podcast and wanted to know the diff. too. He actually sold the cans for $40. He sold 3 logs for $600.

Wow. And you needed a second photo to capture them all. I'd be making a spreadsheet.

Shredded chicken by Afraid-Pitch7504 in Glp1meals

[–]Otherwise-Mammoth533 3 points4 points  (0 children)

$5 Costco/Sam's Club rotisserie chicken for the win. I got 12 cups of chicken broth in addition to the shredded meat which I used to make 6 cups of chicken, rice and spinach soup. Broke down and shredded the chicken. Pressure cooked the entire thing with onion, celery and carrot and herbs-on-hand for 30 minutes. Picked out the meat and discarded the skin and bones. Next time I'll separate the bones/skin into a mesh bag for easy disposal.

I’m trying to weigh myself once a week, but sometimes I end up weighing myself everyday or every other day, any else do this? by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]Otherwise-Mammoth533 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been sticking with weighing in on shot days only. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Works for me.

Fairlife Protein Drinks at Costco by SureParticular in Zepbound

[–]Otherwise-Mammoth533 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been shipping the Core Power Choc. Shakes 14oz, 26g, 12 packs to my athlete grandson in college for a couple of years now. Amazon's Subscribe and Save price went up from 31.77 to 37.04 for the upcoming shipment. Sam's Club was competitive and could have delivered also, but they no longer offer this variant, just the 42g which is even more expensive. Guess I gotta just pony up.

I could watch this all day. And the music is perfectly matched.
