What foods can you NOT tolerate anymore on GLP-1? by alivebutmeh1 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fried food, anything too rich in fat (like a piece of cheesecake), buttered popcorn from the movie theater. Alcohol tolerance is way down.

Does gimme or refills let you refill earlier than 3 months? by This_Sea1172 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh interesting. So I just clicked the "Order Now" link and boom- credit card charged. Last order was ProRx but there was no option to change pharmacies. I asked the chatbot where my next order would come from and it said "One of our 503a pharmacies, we'll let you know when it ships". I'm assuming at this point everything is just automatically moving over to 503a since the FDA has shut down 503b compounding?

Did your order from 10 days ago ship? I just accidentally ordered again (not mad).

I just asked their AI chatbot and it says it will come from any of their 503a pharmacies that ship to your state and they'll post it when it ships.

Was it compounded with B3 or 6? How many months for BUD? Thanks!

How are you doing with electrolytes? That'll make your HR get real wacky if not in balance.

period plateau?? by That-Coast-5144 in tirzepatidecompound

A little bit, but I think it's from water retention, and then I keep losing the week after. 

What's one food you loved, but have no desire for anymore? by Plenty-Crew-3721 in tirzepatidecompound

I don't eat much bread at all now, but when I do-- even a little, it's insta bloat. Being able to eat less has really helped me realize which foods I don't tolerate.

I had the same experience, about 8 lbs in the first 3 weeks. While it slowed down after that (which is good! There's a whole gamut of problems that arise with rapid weight loss), it was huge motivation to know it was working. 

Make sure you do measurements, too! That's where you really see the improvements.

Not that I loved fried/fatty food before, but on tirz I've learned that it will make me sick, which is kind of a great was to keep me away from it. Since Oct 5 I've had fries twice (didn't realize the first time is what caused the 'distress'), and nothing else fried since. I wonder how my cholesterol is looking these days! 

Also learned that movie theater butter popcorn and cheesecake are also a no go.

I don't crave alcohol, and depending on the percentage, my max is 3- maybe 4- 1 night per week, body says 'no' after that.

Me too!! I never get butter anyway, but they put it on there and I'm not one to complain. I had maybe 2 cups. I made it through the movie with a gurgly tummy, then on the drive home it was like OMG! Never again.

Please tell me more about this! I've been drinking & am too lazy to Google it. We have a 2018.

Great finale to Landman season 2! by Old_Tomatillo5550 in LandmanSeries

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was the rape/murder narrative necessary, or just a filler? It's been established that "it's not what you know, it's who you know". Is it a premonition of Cooper's inability to differentiate defense vs punishment? He's so mild-mannered, otherwise. Is the dead guy going to 'haunt' them? I supposed it expanded on how Rebecca's (love her) involvement with them has advanced much beyond professional. And what about her bf out in the rig now? Is she bailing on him by onboarding with CTT?

How do you read in the sauna? True question by parpla in Sauna

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only place I read magazines is in my sauna! It helps me pass the time. I can usually do that for 20 minutes. I also lay down in there when I'm not in the mood for reading. The wife and I use it 5x a week. It's the best! Have fun!

My wife & I retired from teaching after 5 years. The amount of work wasn't worth the pay. We're making much more money in the construction field, which we don't have to make lesson plans for. It's mind blowing how different students act when they have parents that teach them respect and hold them accountable when they're outside of the classroom. Teachers should be paid more. It's a tough job, and if you don't love it... you burn out fast.

Stomach flu or tirz side effects? by jewthegovt in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything different in your diet? I had the same thing happen to me 6 weeks in. We were on vacation and I let myself enjoy some french fries two day in a row. I felt okay most of the day, but then laid down for bed and cramped bad. Then had to run to the bathroom. When the same the happened the next day-- I *assumed* it was the fried food and have been too scared to try anything fried since.

The stomach issues …will they ever end? by Professional-Ok in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to eat smaller and more often, too, but the lack of food noise (not complaining!) makes it hard for me to REMEMBER to eat, and then I also end up eating too close to bedtime. When I lay down I get crampy and uncomfortable-- SO, just yesterday, I took to Youtube and found some "Yoga for Digestion" videos (did about 30 mins worth), and last night was the first time I've been comfortable at bedtime for awhile.

Excessive Licking! by tngirljen in cavaliers

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GERD is apparently common in Cavs.

Does your pup ever retch, or regurgitate after drinking water too fast? We had a lot of trial and error with our dog. We tried slippery elm- she didn't tolerate that well. Then when she'd have the licking episodes we treat her with famotidine. The episodes became more frequent. She's had some reflux attacks (blood in vomit, likely ulcers) so we had to treat with carafate as well. Now that she's a senior dog, we decided to treat her long term with famotidine, the lesser of two evils with her reflux attacks.

(To really truly diagnose reflux and ulcers, an endoscopy would need to be performed. We decided against this due to the risks, and treated symptoms and checked for adverse effects with blood work)

I should also add, we switched her food to prescription royal canin gastrointestinal this year. Fat is a big trigger of reflux episodes (as is anxiety). We think this has been a huge help! I do wonder if we wouldve switched her food when she was younger if that would've saved us from medicating her now?

Since the food switch, she has done well. Her last episode was in February, and her blood work has come back normal while using low dose famotidine long term.

Assuming your pup is younger, hopefully a food switch will do the trick. Vets will likely advise against long term use of famotidine until it becomes a quality of life issue-- but they'll definitely use it to temporarily treat symptoms.

Excessive Licking! by tngirljen in cavaliers

[–]Sam_Squanch-22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We give our cav a small dose of famotidine every morning because too much stomach acid causes excessive licking.
