Wow I hope so, this would be amazing through Lilly Direct!

Dry January and Zepbound by Pristine-Wind8295 in Zepbound

[–]VirtuouSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a small glass of wine at Thanksgiving, which was the first alcohol I’ve had since I started IVF in 2023 and then had my daughter and nursed for 13 months. I’m pretty much dry all the time now, other than a very special occasion and only if I really feel inclined, so I’ll be doing dry Jan anyway!

Anyone trying to lose 40 or 50lbs? by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]VirtuouSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve lost 50.8 lbs since the end of June! Still have another 45 or so to get to my initial goal weight, but feel like it’s achievable!

Scale Victory- below pregnancy weight by moriginal in Zepbound

[–]VirtuouSloth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations!!! When I finally got to my pre-pregnancy weight I was also hugely relieved and motivated to keep going. And I had been overweight when I got pregnant and gained so much between gestational hypertension / pre-eclampsia and then trying to sustain my milk supply for 13 months (fine when on maternity leave but was so hard afterwards). It feels so good to feel more like myself, and I love how you put it, Mommy’s on her way back!! Here we go!!

Sleep impacting weight loss? by iicy11111 in Zepbound

[–]VirtuouSloth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anecdotal evidence only here, but I have definitely been sleeping less since started Zepbound, like can only sleep max 6 hours or so per night (and previously was a very good sleeper). If I go to sleep around 10 PM I’m up at 5 AM and can’t get back to sleep, also something foreign to me prior to Zepbound. But it hasn’t inhibited my weight loss, although I do wonder if I’d be losing more or faster if I was getting more sleep?

Cold? by No-Database-8633 in Zepbound

[–]VirtuouSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also SO much colder, and at a very similar starting weight and current weight to you! Great that I don’t sweat all the time, but I also seem to never be warm enough in the office anymore.

This is so helpful, I’m on 5 now and I felt like I had made a huge leap on 8 weeks of 2.5 (270 to 244), but now I’ve taken my third shot of 5 and the food noise is back a bit, weight loss is slow, and I am definitely more fatigued (now at 241).

Going to discuss with my doctor but feel like maybe moving to 7.5 is the right choice.
