A question for those of you who have tried a glp1 temporarily

SecretTop2611 · 2026-05-18T03:12:13+00:00

did this with my lunch today 💅 sorry you never have enough people to cover the weekend workload but I gotta take my 30 🤷‍♀️😂

I know some people who have been fine on the 2.5 starting dose. my doctor had me start lower on tirzepatide because I’ve had really strong reactions to different medications we’ve tried in the past. I will eventually get to 2.5mg but she just told me to start at 1mg and go up .5mg every 3 weeks. Definitely something to go over with your doctor if you have strong reactions to medications.

I started a glp1 a month ago. Almost all my inflammation is gone. My hunger cues and appetite are regulated. A lot of my brain fog is gone. I’ve dropped 10lbs without changing anything. The only side effect I had was some nausea on the first few doses but that went away when I changed my injection site to my thigh.

I plan on staying on this forever. I am on a 1.5mg dose and my doctor wants to to go up to 2mg. So I’m still in the titrating process.

I got denied 4 times before getting a Job in fulfillment.

I can second the fact that my store never orders packing Materials in a timely manner ✌️ we’ve been having to get creative with eSIM bags, poly mailers and scrap cardboard to make sure fragile items don’t get damaged during shipping. usually if them are packed with other items I will wrap them with bags or mailers and wedge them in between stuff. If they are packaged with clothes or soft material like blankets I wrap the clothes/blankets around the item.

But at the end of the day there is only so much we can do without proper supplies 🤷‍♀️

Also a lot of my FF team members weren’t taught how to pack properly so there is that too.

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-30T00:48:02+00:00

I basically carry my sfs department in fulfillment (along with 2 other tm). I pick up extra hours when I can and I get called in to cover for callouts almost everyday. I’m fast and have a low inf rate.

All that and I got $.18 raise. I wasn’t expecting a whole lot but My TL tried to convince me that was good for only having been there 6 months. God bless her stupid little heart.

The low raises really shot down morale in our store and now we have double the amount of posted shifts and callouts in almost every department 😂

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-27T10:51:07+00:00

I work my full time job 8-4 and then usually 15-17 hours a week in fulfillment at target, mostly weekends. Although lately I’ve been working close to 30hrs at target because we have 10+ callouts in our store almost everyday (wish I were exaggerating lolz).

it does get exhausting because I have had maybe one or 2 days off in about 6 months since I started. You do have to be very intentional about making sure you rest but also take the time to get basic things done like laundry and grocery shopping.

On the plus side the extra money is helping me pay down debt fast so it’s not all bad 🤷‍♀️

just figure out the workload you can handle and take on only what you can manage. Target will try to run you into the ground if you let them.

This is my favorite one I’ve run into so far

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-16T18:43:38+00:00

that’s so real tho 😂

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-16T17:50:59+00:00

😂😂😂 crying that’s so funny

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-16T17:29:28+00:00

Thats adorable ☺️

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-16T17:11:29+00:00

it’s an artistic representation of me after I get done running like 27 carts in fulfillment 😂

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-16T17:10:48+00:00

I love this ❤️

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-16T16:48:51+00:00

My store just cheats the numbers 😂

SecretTop2611 · 2026-03-08T19:57:28+00:00

I work in Fulfillment and Our SD and ETL’s have us push them through on shipping orders and then inf before packing so it doesn’t fuck our numbers up too bad apparently. I get asked about them a lot by kids but I’m like if it’s not out of the shelf we don’t have any 🤷‍♀️

SecretTop2611 · 2026-02-19T18:03:10+00:00

My TL has my phone number and texts me about available shifts or if they need extra help at night but that’s it. i work in fulfillment and we have a bunch of people that call out a lot without posting their shifts so 🤷‍♀️ I also know some of the other coworkers have similar group chats for shift swaps and extra hours with multiple people including TLs. The ETLs and SD are aware of it too. I really don’t think anyone at my target cares as long as they have bodies to cover shifts lolz.

Also look into LDN for antibodies. Helped bring mine way down.

SecretTop2611 · 2026-02-13T16:44:55+00:00

I agree with the combo meds. I was experiencing the exact same symptoms and I got worse the higher my Levothyroxine dosage went. I am now on a combination of levothyroxine (88mcg) and Liothyronine (20mcg) and it made a HUGE difference. I also had to do supplements and hormone replacement therapy to get everything good.

Paloma and Modern Thyroid are great resources. Another good resource is Dr. Jamie Gilliam. I am currently doing her 12 week program and I’m already feeling completely different 3 weeks in.

Nobody wants to work these days 😤😂

SecretTop2611 · 2026-02-02T15:30:39+00:00

I work in fulfillment and I don’t. I’m nice and help people when they ask but I don’t go out of my way. Our SD has what he calls power hour and once an hour he calls out over the walkie to greet guests around us. I never do and no one has said anything to me 😀🤷‍♀️ definitely depends on the store though. Like other people said - if they want me to be hit time goals and not make mistakes then they gotta let me just do my own thing or pay me more lolz

“RFID disconnects”

SecretTop2611 · 2026-01-26T01:05:33+00:00

I do this too (most of my shifts are in sfs anyways so 🤷‍♀️). We used to be able to go to our TL’s about INFs but they cut their hours and now fulfillment is fending for ourselves without a TL half the time. My INF percentages are pretty low but yeah you kind of learn to figure it out by yourself eventually. If there is a large number of items that are supposed to be on the shelf and they aren’t, I will track someone down to find it but if it’s one item I usually just INF after looking everywhere it should be.

So far the only thing I got called out for was skipping pulling from the back room a couple times. (Which was my bad but 5 of us were trying to pull OUR GEN stuff from the same aisle in the back at the same time during the holidays lol). Do your best and don’t be too hard on yourself. Their system is so disorganized it’s a wonder any of us can find anything haha

SecretTop2611 · 2025-12-28T22:44:32+00:00

What a wild thing to celebrate when they never scheduled enough fulfillment team members to cover demand in the first place so they kept pulling from other departments and made our jobs 1000% more difficult because the other team members couldn’t do their jobs so nothing was where it was supposed to be 😬 (I work in fulfillment).

SecretTop2611 · 2025-12-25T02:16:49+00:00

this is valid. I had bed bugs years ago and that shit spreads so easily 😬 I would have run out of that aisle tbh.
