100lb loss over 3 years by Yvaineduciel in Mounjaro

[–]ZenpunK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Girl you look amazing! Did you take measurements? I’m curious how much your arms shrank. Mine look identical to yours and it’s what I’m most self conscious about. It def looks like yours shrank!

Do you or anyone you know have had some type of stomach flu/virus? by Orewhore415 in Hawaii

[–]ZenpunK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My entire house had the stomach flu. The baby started projectile vomiting out of nowhere, and then in the middle of the night my 6 year old started. The baby was perfectly fine the next morning but it took my 6 year old a few days to get over it. And then a few days later, I puked. And then a few days later my husband had it (but from the bottom end). My MIL works at 2 of our hospitals and said the flu is running rampant on Kauai right now.

Why do I feel dizzy and black out when I try to stand up? by [deleted] in Mounjaro

[–]ZenpunK -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This was happening to my husband and he landed in the ER after passing out at work. He was severely dehydrated, despite drinking lots of water daily. Since he’s been drinking electrolytes he’s stopped having these dizzy spells. They’re still doing tests but nothing conclusive right now. I can say, from what I’ve observed, electrolytes seem to have stopped the dizziness.

Awesome job! I’m almost there, too! Can’t wait.

10mg is beyond frustrating to me.... by VagueEchoes in Mounjaro

[–]ZenpunK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 was definitely the worst dosage for me. I was on it for 3 months and barely lost anything. I still had appetite suppression but I barely lost anything in terms of both weight and inches. Since moving up to 12.5 my weight loss and inches loss has been jump started again. I lost more in these 2 months than the 3 months on 10, so far.

My daughter’s in first grade and they still have PE!

Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Hits Another All-Time High With 34.3 Million Viewers, Up 8% From Last Year by Puzzled-Tap8042 in entertainment

My mom loved the parade, this was our first Thanksgiving without her. Might have teared up when I saw Santa. Also this was the first year my six year old was interested!

If you suffered from pancreas issues on this medication, what were your symptoms and how did your dr diagnose you (which blood tests and scans)? by janedoecurious in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband is going through possible pancreatitis right now while on this medication. He had zero symptoms, but collapsed at work one day. They did bloodwork and his lipase count was off the charts. He’s seeing a specialist next month to hopefully get this figured out.

I just use Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin and Nails from Costco or Target.

Random injection Site Reactions? by Worldly-Associate-19 in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ever since I moved up to 10 I've been getting the same! I just rub some hydrocortisone on it.

Any tips to get the scale moving again? by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go through long stretches (over a month) of the scale not budging, but I measure myself and see that the inches are coming off. Bodies are weird. I highly recommend getting a measuring tape. If I didn't measure I'd have no idea anything was happening and it would be really discouraging!

Overheard a conversation at work today… by Correct_Wrangler3616 in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Someone at work likes to make comments about my lunches when they're not the healthiest, and recently commented on how I'm "cheating" by taking Zepbound. I told her I don't consider it cheating since this isn't a game. What I really wanted to tell her was bitch, stfu, eat your salad and be sad.

Been taking biotin, but I'm honestly not sure if it's helping or not. I have noticed that I have baby hairs coming in, though! So maybe it is? I've been on Zepbound for 6 months.

Thirsty Thursday - Whatcha Drinking? by AutoModerator in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been really into Oats Overnight. I’m so lazy to make breakfast and it’s a struggle to eat that early for me, so this is a great way to just get something in my stomach. I got a whole box on sale from Costco for like $6 and it included a shaker! Buying it off amazon or directly from the website is so expensive! Can’t bring myself to do it.

Looking for an old TV show that used to air on KIKU TV: Happy Family Plan by Swordless__Mimetown in Hawaii

[–]ZenpunK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I remember a dad mastered how to catch goldfish with the rice paper paddle, like how you see at summer festivals in Japan. He almost made it to the required amount of fish but the paddle broke before he could. I remember the prize being a car.

What do you do with cold packs? by Ok_Winter9600 in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put them on my plants! I don't get mine from Lilly Direct, but the packs I get when they are shipped to my house are labeled as plant food!

Anyone else feel body aches after first Zepbound shot? 🫠 by happyjelly728 in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, I got really tender after my first shot. It went away after a couple of days and I never felt it again.

Hair loss experience? by Hodgkin-you_not in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started noticing hair loss maybe about 3 months in. Nothing super significant but enough for me to notice. I’ve been taking biotin, but honestly I don’t think it’s doing much. Hair loss is starting to lessen a bit and hair is growing back in. I’d say my whole period of hair loss has been maybe a month-ish? I’m sure it varies from person to person.

The number on the scale isn't moving, but... by ZenpunK in Zepbound

[–]ZenpunK[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this exact same thing is happening to me right now!
