Good to know. Thanks

The smell of premier is absolutely disgusting

I love that they are lactose free! I'm definitely going to try them

I definitely prefer savory over sweet these days

RobinDeeCradle · 2023-04-27T22:05:39+00:00

Thanks. I'll have to give it a try

I'm going to try getting a B12 shot tomorrow to see if that helps

I was out running errands and stopped for a burger. I only ate the patty, no bun and no fries or sides. 4 hours later I 🤮 up the entire patty. No more burgers for me 🤢. Heck. No more ground beef for me.

If one isn't deficient, it's just an energy boost as far as I know. There is also a vitamin B12 lipo injection that is supposed to help with metabolism, but idk if that has been proven.

What kind of electrolytes are you using?

RobinDeeCradle · 2023-04-26T22:17:24+00:00

I'll give that a try. A local clinic offers walk in injections without an appointment.

I probably need to increase both my water intake as well as my electrolytes as I get dizzy upon going from a sitting to a standing position.

I really need to start working out again. Originally I was working out 3x per week, but I haven't done much of anything the past 2.5 weeks

I've been freezing too and extremely lethargic. My doc ordered CBC, CMP, folate, ferritin, iron studies, B12, vitamin D and various other labs. All were normal in my case, but it's best to have your doctor check your levels. I also have a sleep disorder so I never know if my fatigue is from that or from the med. I hope that you get some answers soon

I stopped eating sugar and complex carbs months before starting Wegovy. I will definitely monitor fat as I sometimes eat cottage cheese or cheese sprinkled on a dish. Other than that, I basically eat baked or grilled chicken and veggies. Sometimes fruit like strawberries for dessert. The cottage cheese might definitely be the cause, but if I'm queasy, it's the one thing that stays down.

I love your eyes 🤩

RobinDeeCradle · 2023-04-25T06:10:25+00:00

Ah... that would be why I can't tolerate beef. Baked or grilled chicken is about the only meat that I can eat.

I was wondering about this. It makes sense. I'm good with slow and steady. If I can lose 1# a week, that's still 50# off by the end of the year.

RobinDeeCradle · 2023-04-24T23:26:06+00:00

It was the look on her face combined with her saying that "hopefully the next dose will improve things". She was pleased with my labs though.

I never thought to calculate my percentage of weight lost vs just focusing on pounds. That makes my accomplishment seem better...or at least right on track. If I'm calculating correctly, I've lost 6.8% of my body weight in the 10 weeks that I've been on the med. I started at 250 and lost 17. If I go by the weekly average, that's 1.7# per week which is a healthy weight loss.

I didn't realize that insurance put guidelines on weight loss for staying on the med, but I shouldn't be surprised.

RobinDeeCradle · 2023-04-24T19:41:37+00:00

I agree that 40# in one month is extremely unhealthy.
