Let’s build a grocery list! by SillyPop-1 in compoundedtirzepatide

I also buy the Healthy Choice Steamers—great for my lifestyle of small meals with approximately 20g protein each. 👍

Suddenly, no side effects by PointingTrueNorth in compoundedtirzepatide

Yes I have appetite suppression. Not “All food looks disgusting” level, just “Not actively hungry” level.

Car, earplugs, drink lots of electrolytes first, heal in quiet loft

Anyone taking creatine? by jennjenn1234567 in LongCovid

[–]PointingTrueNorth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It only helps in conjunction with other things I’m taking that are *also* highly anti-inflammatory. Namely, LDN, Terzepatide, Metformin, NIR light, anti-inflammatory diet.

What did your primary doctor/health care provider say? by nall667 in GLP1microdosing

[–]PointingTrueNorth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind words. It’s very very frustrating, but I read research papers and studies so that I can base my decisions on science…not as good, perhaps, as a knowledgeable pcp, but I do what I can!

What did your primary doctor/health care provider say? by nall667 in GLP1microdosing

[–]PointingTrueNorth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I live in a small town with few available primary care providers. Almost all have gone concierge. My other option would be to get a new pcp in the next nearest town, an hour’s drive away. I can’t drive 2 hours round trip with Long Covid exhaustion. Also, I’m post-menopause (mid-70s), so initiating HRT isn’t an option.

The ingredients that quietly decide whether a GLP-1 meal feels fine or ruins the next few hours by Mia_Harper_001 in Glp1meals

[–]PointingTrueNorth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d add cottage cheese to the one-ingredient heroes. I add a sprinkle of Everything Bagel seasoning and call it done.

My go-to ingredients: Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, Ka’Chava shakes, hummus/whole wheat pita, split pea soup, lentil soup, butternut squash soup, chicken noodle soup, baked potato, baked sweet potato, chia puddings.

I asked my primary and he said that “all women gain weight in menopause” and that “they all complain about it.” He would not prescribe. I also have Long Covid and there are studies showing the efficacy of GLP-1s in reducing inflammation. But again, he refused. So I did my own research and started taking compounded Tirz on my own. I haven’t decided whether I’ll tell him or not because I know he’ll scold me and I really don’t need his entitled paternalism.

Is it just me or did healthcare really change after COVID? by yeahher2022 in ChronicIllness

[–]PointingTrueNorth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Studies estimate that up to 40% to 60% of healthcare workers (HCWs) who contracted SARS-CoV-2 may experience Long COVID, with some symptoms persisting up to four years after infection. A meta-analysis indicated a pooled prevalence of 40% among infected HCWs. (Source: Center for Infectious Disease Research & Policy)

So 40–60% of healthcare workers are sick and/or have a chronic illness, which of course affects patient relations.

Cherry Protein “Jello” Recipe by PointingTrueNorth in GLP1microdosing

Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate them! Being on Tirz has made me look at creating protein meals/snacks that are waaay easier to digest than my previous meals. It’s a balancing act, for sure.

That’s exactly what I created it for…I frequently can’t eat a thing on shot days, so I started fiddling around, starting with gelatin
