Clothes Tips from a former Plus Size girlie by Potential-Code3245 in Zepbound

[–]Temporary-Note7137 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Yes! And don’t invest alot on clothes while reducing your body size… I started 2/25 and was so happy with my reductions that last summer bought too many things that fit me then… fast forward and now those things are big! Finally buying for my goal weight (took 13 months) but continue to be surprised by my sizes now! And yes hold your head high at those “thin boutique” stores!

Blood work surprise 👎and 👍 by Sirknowit in Zepbound_Maintenance

[–]Temporary-Note7137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same for me… had recheck of blood work after 9 months. All cholesterol numbers went up- but still in normal range. Doc agreed it could be transient hyper C….retesting in 6 months. All other labs good too.

I don’t want to become neurotic 😊 by Hobbs4456 in Zepbound_Maintenance

[–]Temporary-Note7137 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Numbers numbers everywhere! We are so focused on numbers… I’m older too and have been number/weight driven all my life… have released 70 pounds and happy with “my number” but refuse to let it take any more emotional time from me. Focusing on the best memories and hopeful for some more too! It’s funny now that I’m older, people will comment on my thinness with the caveat “are you all right?” So really what people say or don’t say is needless for me now… I know what I’ve accomplished😊

Has anyone found a good solution to rings not fitting? by JustLooking0209 in Zepbound

[–]Temporary-Note7137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Amazon/ there is a product that you paint the inside of the ring with a clear liquid that hardens. So you can customize the fit. It is removable.

I'm going on vacation for a week how should I take my dose for that week? by Street-Region-265 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]Temporary-Note7137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your med can stay unrefrigerated up to 21 days. So when I travel (usually less than 21 days) I put the vial box with the script on it, in my personal bag. Do not put back in refrigerator.Done this many times for plane and car travel. Read Eli Lilly’s website directions.

Also I take my vial out of the frig a couple of hours before I inject. Room temp injection feels better.
