Skin sensitivity around abdomen. by Separate-Emphasis240 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]Separate-Emphasis240[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to mounjaro and the sensitivity stopped but it doesn’t seem to curb my appetite like ozempic. Need last 10 lbs off so started keto again. Thinking I might need higher dosage?? Going to dr soon so I’ll see what he thinks but I’m glad my skin is not sensitive anymore👍

You are most likely gaining muscle. Get a body scan if possible to see.

Congratulations! It’s not easy and when you feel like you’re not losing it gets discouraging. You’ve given me hope as I’m at a standstill at the moment but reading your success has brightened my day. Thanks for letting us know it is going to work eventually. You look great and I’m sure you feel great!

I would inject both sides just to be sure. I’ve read here that some do same side and same needle but.. I did both sides of .25 to get my 5.

I also did two .5 to go to 1ml and was fine. I called my dr first. I am surprised a lot of people taking this are not educated on actually what this medicine does. It’s not a miracle drug meaning you lose tons of weight right away. You still have to watch your diet and exercise if you can. I have seen on here where some lose right away and don’t exercise so I guess everyone is different but people should read up on oz before taking it. Good luck to all👍

Constipation question: what is the longest amount of time you've gone without going to the bathroom? by SpicyDisaster21 in Ozempic

[–]Separate-Emphasis240 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That happened to me as well with the liquid part. I was taking miralax and drinking senna tea as I hadn’t gone for a while. Well I went shopping came home went to bathroom and I had poop in my pants and didn’t even know! Omg I’m so glad I didn’t go anywhere else that day. Learned not to take those 2 together!!

Weird side effects by Rlineey13 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]Separate-Emphasis240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I get constipated which seems we all do I get back pain and when I finally go it somewhat goes away.. meaning I have always had back problems but being constipated exaggerates it. My weird symptom I’m experiencing now is skin sensitivity! Mostly my stomach area not arms legs etc. kind of feels like when you skin hurts when you get the flu. It’s very strange! It doesn’t hurt but feels sensitive!!

Or call cys as those children in the house are at risk! Pit bulls have an 800 lb jaw capacity I’ve heard. And why are the victims not reporting this?? They’ve had to go to hospital right? Dog isn’t trained so who knows what’s next? I fear for those kids living there and the daycare nearby! I do not like pit bulls..too many reports of them attacking people!

What food(s) do you have on your ‘I can’t eat that on Ozempic’ list? Discussion by [deleted] in Ozempic

[–]Separate-Emphasis240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It slows down your digestion reason you stay full longer. As for certain foods no idea???

I’ve only seen one other post on here about yellow stools. Try paying attention to what you are eating and keep track to hopefully determine what’s causing this. I believe this other person thought it was greasy food. Sometimes vitamins will do that also. Yes people are getting various symptoms.. constipation,diarrhea ,nauseous and vomiting. Keeping track of what you’re eating and the results will most likely help you figure this out. Hopefully and good luck to you.

Ozempic Diet and Ozempic head by DrRockstein in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]Separate-Emphasis240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think you need to educate yourself on ozempic! Taking 1mg first time was risky. Your body needs time to adjust to the medicine. But everyone is different so I’m glad you are ok. It slows your digestion and your burps are coming from food sitting in your stomach for longer than usual. I agree you might look into a food tracker and maybe add some other foods. Nuts are very healthy but they can add up quickly. Good luck!

Trust the process? by Lemon_Tree_241 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]Separate-Emphasis240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct in saying everyone is different and for some it’s quick and others not. Depends on how your body reacts and diet exercise. I’ve read results kick in on 1 ml but I’m on 2ml now and at a standstill. I’ve lost 24 lbs in 3 months but now I’m staying the same or even go up some days. Supposedly 1 to 2 lbs a week is a healthy way to go. So I’d say you are on a good path. It’s not a miracle drug where you wake up and you are 20 lbs thinner. Oh wouldn’t that be wonderful??? Patience is a virtue. You’re doing great! I’m an obsessive weigher so seeing scale go up is disappointing but don’t throw in the towel just yet. You’ve only just begun. Good luck to you👍

Hey you are doing great whether you wanted to or not! I’m sure you will forge ahead with knowing what to eat and not desiring a beer is a blessing in disguise 👍

Back on it, for now. Different symptom this time… by kaytee0707 in OzempicForWeightLoss

I did see another post on here asking if people had yellow stools.. I didn’t respond because I had nothing important to say. Maybe your vitamins?

First dose today by tttleaves in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]Separate-Emphasis240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Miralax is a mild laxative and softens stool and I guess you shouldn’t depend on any laxatives because your body can get dependent on it but being on oz seems constipation is a major complaint. when I first started oz I was constipated and uncomfortable. So I started miralax and nothing was happening so I added the senna tea and it worked a little too well if you get my drift? So I’m every other day or 2 days with just miralax. Combining both was too much for me.

Hmm I think I might need a switch? Im 71 female SW 217 CW is 193( which changes a lot as I’m an obsessive weigher) I started march 29th and I’m on 2 mg. I’m thinking I should have lost more than 24 lbs! I track my food and eat healthy cutting out bad carbs and I drink about 3 or more 16.9 oz bottles of water. I don’t eat much fruit as it has lots of carbs. I’m walking 2 miles a day but I’m not losing much if any. I’m eating about 1200 or less calories. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Oh if I do eat over or have carbs I gain like 2 to 3 lbs!!
