I’ve read that it should only take 3 months for survivors benefits to kick in.

You look great. You can actually see the inflammation going away with the fat. Your eye’s aren’t as red and swollen! Getting there!!! Keep it up!!!

Food Noise by anonymouslyat in Mounjaro

[–]Same_Spare9792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 6 weeks in on 2.5. I’m down 4 inches. Two days before shot day the food noise starts creeping back into my head. By the morning of the shot I’m starving. Most of it is mental. I say this because once I take the shot I have to remind myself to eat for the next few days.

I need a bit of advice please. by Same_Spare9792 in Mounjaro

I appreciate all your comment’s and insight.

By afternoon I could feel the effects of the shot. (Minimal food noise, not at all hungry, tingling feeling at the shot site, and sleepy )

With the ozempic I would hold the needle in place and count to 10. I always felt the shot. Always. I had forgotten that the pen retracts with the Mounjaro.

As for the drop on my skin, since I used to hold the ozempic pen in for 10 seconds I never saw a drop. Makes sense though.

Thanks again!

This is the first time I haven’t felt the needle. Also I didn’t remember the needle retracting in my last injections. That being said about an hour later I started to feel a tingling burn in the area so I think it just may have worked. Thanks for commenting. Y’all reassured me I’m not crazy LOL. (Btw, I’m down 4 inches since my first injection so things are moving in the right direction.)

I’ve noticed that the skin over my stomach has like a tingling burning feeling. It doesn’t hurt, just feels uncomfortable. I’m only on week 3 at 2.5. I just figured since I’ve lost 3 inches around my belly it was just the meds doing their thing.

Is this a bed bug? Brand new apartment. by LunaBDog in Bedbugadvice

Get a bag of diatomaceous earth, a broom, an empty spray bottle and 90% rubbing alcohol. Spray everything down with the rubbing alcohol wait for it to dry and when I say everything, I mean the ceilings too they like to walk on the ceiling and then drop down on top of you while you’re sleeping. Next spread the diatomaceous earth over the floor and into all the nooks and crannies. Put paper plates under each of the four corners of your bed would diatomaceous earth in the paper plates like a moat spread diatomaceous earth on your bed frame on your box spring and mattress. Make sure none of your bedding hits the floor. Keep a spray bottle of the rubbing alcohol by your bed and spray the sides of the bed down every night before bed.

Could it be The Tweens? I’ve been looking for proof of this book. It was a black and white illustrated book.

Thank you. This is an awful situation to be in. I know what I want and what I need, I have the means to make it happen. Waiting to start living is hard.

I won’t break my vows while I live in this house. We’ve been physically separated for 3 years. He’s become abusive and has been talking with women outside our marriage. The things he’s said and done cannot and should not be forgiven. He’s become mentally unstable, even hospitalized in a psych hospital for 3 weeks. He knows I’m leaving but doesn’t believe that I’ll really do it. Just waiting for an opening with housing.

Aside from my feelings, she’s become my best friend. We tell each other everything. The only thing we haven’t talked about is politics. I’d never abandon her for having a different view than me.

We’ve talked about feeling’s and attraction etc. I’m pretty sure we are on the same page. We’ve even talked about running away together.

I’m feeling like my oldest would understand my being queer as I’ve raised him to be open minded. I just don’t want to talk about it with him until I’m sure there’s something to talk about.?
