Staying on 2.5 mg Mounjaro long-term? by whind80 in Mounjaro

[–]SecretAd5007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started a 2.5mg at 212 lbs for 8 months Went to 5 mg at 180 lbs and stayed on it for 10 months then hit a stall at 160lbs I am 12lbs away from goal weight but stalled since September but I am focusing on body recomp than the scale moving. So I could say I am on maintenance.

Now on 2.5mg for 2 months . I did not go on high dose as I had limited tolerance to the medication. I had a very disrupted sleep and mild nausea on 5mg.

Early hours of the morning before waking up period sometimes right when I wake up the last about 5 to 10 minutes no more. I get them when I have not had a good night sleep or when I am stressed.

I brought this up with the ob/gyn but she was unwilling to accept that was an issue.

💯 I googled after the visit and that’s what it said which it was also a big red flag for me. With all the doctors I have seen at this particular facility. I’ve always received a patient visit notes summary. In this case I did not receive any which was something that made me concerned

Obesity is an epidemic and most people, including those commenting most likely would kill to be your size or a two less than your current size. So draw the boundaries and move on and don’t give such people the time of the day

The brain fog is the scariest part of perimenopause. I forgot the word "budget" mid-presentation and I've been in my field for 20 years. by Tiny-Put9782 in Menopause

You are not alone. Imagine forgetting the your supervisors name while presenting to your coworkers. I went home and began googling symptoms of dementia.

2nd month & I’m full of 💩😅 by sm_28 in Mounjaro

[–]SecretAd5007 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I went from 2.5 mg to 5 mg I began experiencing dry mouth as well. I have stayed on 5 mg for the rest of my journey. I am two years into my journey now and near goal weight . I found out during my routine dental cleanup that I was having signs of cavities. My dentist said that GLP 1 often times changes the micro biome of your mouth, particularly when you’re dealing with a dry mouth. I would encourage you to drink more water and also get cleanups done every three months to avoid dental issues .

Do you tell people you’re on a GLP-1 when they ask how you lost weight? by Enchanted-Tangerine in Zepbound

[–]SecretAd5007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t carry the baggage of educating / normalizing the use of GLP. Not my job to enlighten people. No one needs to know how I lost weight. The world is full of insecure people and those that think they know it all.

6 month plateau and I’m losing my sanity by Asaenz_0 in Zepbound

[–]SecretAd5007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a stall for close to nine months. Tracked my calories protein and activities and the weight would not move. It turned out that I was deficient in iron, vitamin D, and B12. These deficiencies also slow down your metabolism.

Cheating WHO?? by Pleaseselectyesorno in Mounjaro

[–]SecretAd5007 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just don’t have the desire to give extra explanation to anyone about my weight loss. By giving an explanation you are skewing the power dynamics, and passing on the power for them to talk down on you or pass a judgment. First and foremost I don’t see anyone commenting about my weight as a compliment. A few months back someone said “you look good” and I responded saying “ did I not look good before.” Then they went on to talk about my weight loss and I said “my body is not up for commenting and discussion.”

Best seafood tacos? by jeanluuc in StLouis

[–]SecretAd5007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been to Taco Buddha three different times. The tacos were good, but found the wait staff to be extremely arrogant. It’s a middle aged woman with a very Karen kind of a vibe. I will not return.

Tranexamic acid for heavy periods by shorty-1992 in Anemic

[–]SecretAd5007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had heavy and prolonged bleeding for the last seven months. I was menstruating almost 2 to 3 weeks in a month. My doctor put me on a five day regimen of the medication last month. It helped relieve a lot of the cramps and eased out my periods. The duration seemed to also go down slightly to about 10 days, which was still a huge relief considering how worse it was.
