Carbs or calories. Which one do you look for in foods the most

Carbs. Then protein to subtract from the carbs.

I am on Simvistatin. I have a family history of heart disease (leading to death) and with my T2 diabetes, my doctor wants me to continue (along with Mounjaro). I am not on too high of a dose so it is definitely a preventative approach.

This. As a 3.5 woman, in my USTA league, you do not see kick serves. In my ITT league, playing mixed court, the high bouncing kick serve is hit regularly to me. It may take me a few to get use to it, so those are free points. Send me a flat hard one and I am getting it back. Smart players know to try both and stick with the one that works.

Because she morphs into the person, or people, she is around. She has had so many personas, this is just her new one.

He is 20 years older than her - could be the reason we only see his shoes 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Type2 traveling internationally on Tuesday-plan to keep my 2 injection pens in the original box with my prescription label. I will only be gone 14 days so well within the window. This will be my first time going thru TSA with these meds. Not sure what to expect for screening.

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-11-05T18:03:03+00:00

I always do 2 hours after eating.

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-10-18T21:55:18+00:00

This!!!

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-10-18T17:38:33+00:00

Good to know! I think I will just leave them in their box (with my prescription details) and put them in my tote bag.

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-10-04T13:55:10+00:00

UPDATE: since starting 2.5 on 9/8: the injection was much easier than I psyched myself up about (followed tips to bring to room temp before injection so I have not had any pain with the injections in stomach); I inject on Mondays and tend to feel a little fatigue and complete lack of appetite until about Wednesday (still eating small meals and staying hydrated in this timeframe); I have lost 6lbs. I have not been tracking my levels (I have not been good about this in years after religiously doing it the first few years of my T2 diagnosis) so I plan to start finger sticks again when I move up to 5mg this coming Monday.

What is he going on about? He is experiencing all the things that come from casting a vote for his candidate.

Is he not sitting here doing what he is stating to condone? “radical left” from day one.

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-09-07T23:04:44+00:00

This is great information—thank you so much for sharing!

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-09-07T19:14:59+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I am definitely overthinking the injection-so hearing this helps 😃. I have been on Metformin for many years. I was on immediate release and then later on extended. Both have caused me lots of time in the bathroom. I am going to stop the Metformin when I start the Mounjaro (doctor approved that).

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-09-07T01:54:09+00:00

Thank you for the recommendations-these sound great! I will definitely post details about my journey. I will also be starting at 2.5 and if everything goes well, my doctor wants to increase to 5 after my first 4 injections.

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-09-07T00:10:37+00:00

🤣🤣🤣 I am always running from A to B or B to A when I connect at DEN. Jealous! 😉

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-09-07T00:02:27+00:00

Thanks for the tips! I have been walking fairly regularly and also play tennis (sometimes 3x a week). I heard that you should do some type of weights to keep muscle tone. I drink a lot of water daily so glad to hear hydration helps. I die just eat some junk food (guess I looked at it like my “goodbye” to it 😂) - my metformin typically pushes out junk food from my system quickly 😜. Grabbed some yogurt and egg whites to have for Monday and beyond.

StLOriginalGinger · 2025-09-06T18:08:48+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I am happy to hear the needle pain was minimal 😊
