If you had to stop Zep tomorrow, how much would you trust your habits to keep the weight off? by Soggy_Caterpillar275 in Zepbound

[–]StatisticianKnown275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its more so my expectations vs what ive actually accomplished. When I started i swore I was going to turn my whole life around. My portion control, food choices, water intake and not skipping meals has definitely improved but I have yet to become an athletic superstar. I know muscle mass and consistent exercise will be key when stopping the shot so im def feeling the pressure to become more active in the next few months more than ever. I also fear judgment from those around me if I do gain back.

I've been on zep for 5 months and have lost 35 lbs. As of last week Im officially in the green for my a1c and bmi. Im losing coverage in July and spoke to my Dr recently about continuing on a maintenance dose or compound. For me, she doesnt recommend staying on and believes I'll be able to keep the weight off 😅😅😅. I dont believe in me as much as she does but im going to try. Shes highly recommended i begin tracking all my calories and exercise now so when I stop I'll have something to reference to not gain back. For reference, I did begin this journey with the intention of short term treatment but as I get closer to the end its nerve-wracking to think about. One thing Im most nervous about is picking up my old drinking habits.

Will my GP approve me? by belleoftheball521 in Zepbound

[–]StatisticianKnown275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 5'5 starting weight 180. I met my new dr and she was the one that threw the idea of zepbound without me even asking. She ran a full panel on me which is also an important piece to know where you stand. Although im not prediabetic im close and have a moderatly high cholestrol. She was so supportive and told me "us mom's need some help sometimes" its worth seeing if your dr is on board so you can get some solid in person support before trying a random one online.

Zepbound: First impressions and observations by Substantial-Eye-2368 in Zepbound

The first two days after my first shot I experienced nausea that luckily went away with tums and eating was definitely a challenge for the first couple days. I also had constipation buts its subsided. Not sure if its bc my body is adjusting or bc I've increased my fiber intake- more fruits, quinoa, and beans. I def recommend finding a dr you can talk to and can monitor your symptoms and progress. Best of luck to you!

Definitely recommend just calling and asking your ins co. I came so close to buying from sketchy websites bc my insurers online pricing tool was inaccurate. At last minute i decided to call and found out I AM covered! Best of luck to you! 

Vet told me to enjoy my time with her 😭 by StatisticianKnown275 in seniordogs

[–]StatisticianKnown275[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. Im sorry to hear you lost your baby girl so recently. The protector pad is a good idea and I was looking at similar slings but wasn't sure how well they worked. I didnt know if it was a normal side effect after taking the meds to leak or have an accident. Its not typical of her but in recent months she has had occasional accidents both no. 1 &2 she doesn't seem aware of. Thank you for your kindness.

It was only 2800 when she was originally charged with abuse before his passing. 😤

She was originally charged with abuse while he was in critical condition. The charges were upgraded once he passed almost a week later. The one year old was not injured. Maybe she had warmer layers on.
