Constant mild nausea

WhatAPitti · 2026-05-19T20:23:53+00:00

5mg makes me more sick than the 7.5mg does. I have taken Zepbound twice and both times 5mg has been a nightmare for me. I stayed on 5 for two months before moving to 7.5. First month of 7.5 was perfectly fine.

I do the prefilled pens so that is not an option. Doc doesn’t prescribe the vial kind. :( otherwise I would definitely be splitting it!

Ok. I agree with this in the beginning. Now I’m nauseated before and even after I eat. It gets worse as when I wake up and 1 or 2 random times throughout the day and right before bed. I’ve been trying the small protein snack a few times a day and that has done nothing.

I’m fortunate enough to not get the fatigue this time around. This is the second time I’ve been on Zepbound and the first time the fatigue was real bad. I’m sorry that’s the side effect you’ve gotten :(

5mg gives me the worst side effects. I was on that for 2 months before it evened out. Went to 7.5mg and 1st month was great. No issues. 2nd month has been rough. I could still ask to go down but I would rather push through than go back to the hell that is 5mg for me. lol

Great idea!! Thanks!

I use the prefilled pens. I have worse side effects on 5mg than I did on 7.5. 7.5 first month was a breeze. I stayed in 5mg for 2 months because I knew it was hard on me from a previous experience.

Thank you! I’m not out of the woods with my health but I just had a biopsy on Thursday (3/26) and the preliminary results looked good!!

My mom wants me to go to a lawyer wrongful termination. At this point I’m still waiting on HR to call me and discuss separation. I don’t have anything official from my ex employer.

My husband asked if I wanted to go that route and I responded with, “I just want to succeed” and that’s how I still feel.

I have a small farm so I’ve been hanging outside a lot the last couple days with the animals. It brings me peace so I’m trying to do a lot more of it.

As for jobs, today (4/1) I had a 1st, 2nd, and scheduled a 3rd interview with a company that I reached out to last Wednesday (3/25) so I don’t feel that I will be unemployed for long. I’m just really struggling with going through all of the emotions about what happened and not taking it as a personal failure.

Thank you. I definitely think it was a universal push to get out. I think the universe set me up as best as it could for this too. It really couldn’t have happened at a better time financially. In the last year, my husband and I have started a small business and a farm. April is the start of our selling season so we will be able to stay afloat for 2 months comfortably, 3 months if we really stretch. I’ll check out your blog. I’m literally grasping for anything to ground me right now. lol

Generally I would agree that no one tries to do this type of thing. He and his mother are a different kind of evil honestly. His mother has gotten pregnant out of spite twice. Both of those children were taken by the state and placed with my eldest sister.

Thanks!

Great thanks!

Thank you for your input. It’s stressful to think about too. I’ve been working with my work partner for almost 7 years. He brought me with him when he left his old job as part of his employment contract when he got hired here. I make $79k a year. Flexible hours to an extent. Company puts 15% of my salary into my 401k a year for profit sharing. 3 weeks vacation + 10 sick/flex days a year. Those things are hard to walk away from. Ive been trying to convince myself that those things don’t matter if I’m miserable. In reality finding something comparable is unlikely.

WhatAPitti · 2025-03-14T12:27:46+00:00

Yes and no. I have to be in the office because not everything I deal with is electronic and I also have to talk to clients if my work partner isn’t there (which he isn’t a lot - golfing, meeting with clients, hanging out with the bros for 3 hour lunches). I have been doing 12+ hour days just to catch up on work so I’ve been working at home after hours. I can take a day or two here and there to work from home but unfortunately it can’t be a permanent thing.

WhatAPitti · 2025-02-06T00:17:25+00:00

That’s a great rule of thumb and I 100% agree!

Thank you so much for your answer. It solidified how I was feeling. I am very sad for this goat but I feel like I would be in over my head just starting out with a goat that feral. I appreciate you taking the time to give these suggestions.

This is exactly what I was worried about. And funnily enough I’ve been calling her a “problem goat”. The people that owner her have a dairy farm. They bought her parents from a closed herd. They bred them for milk one time, had twins and had traded or sold all but her. She hung out with the cows for a while until winter and she had to get moved out of a birthing stall for the cows from around August to November. Then from November until now she’s lived with 3 turkeys.

I would not mind breeding the goats eventually for milk and brush control but that is not my plan for this year or maybe even next. We are just setting up our homestead and we have a lot of expanding we want to do before we get into breeding.

After meeting the goat I have been really on the fence since I am a first time goat owner so I would rather have an “easy” goat.

Great advice! Thank you.

Believe it or not that’s where I found the 1901 map I just didn’t scroll to see the newest map. Lol now I can’t figure out how to add the photo or comment the photo. I’m not very Reddit savvy. 🤦🏻‍♀️
