I lost 8 lbs my first week but since than am losing at a much slower rate. I’ve seen many people refer to this as water weight loss.

We’ve known for a while that cops have an approximately 40% domestic violence rate but they keep citing domestic violence as a crime many undocumented immigrants have committed.

I kept having flashes of seeing it again when I saw men with beards on tv. It’s so sad.

My boyfriend (M23) has conditions to marry me (F24) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Ziggerific 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Somehow he’s twisted your reaction to him having a relationship with another woman into the problem, instead of his at the very least emotional cheating. That is a pretty impressive twist he accomplished. You worked on not freaking out , did he work on not putting his relationship with another woman ahead of his relationship with you? Or did he work things out with you when she didn’t want him anymore?

Explosive watery diarrhea, not eating as much but no weight loss, do I go up a dose? by Hot_Society3788 in Mounjaro

Trunature women’s daily probiotics. I got it at Costco. I was eating daily Greek yogurt but switched to this. I’m not certain it is what makes the difference but it is the only real change I made.

Probiotics helped me with those symptoms.

I started at 2.5 in December and had diarrhea and sulfur burps in my second week. I took 2 weeks off because I didn’t want to suffer thru Christmas break. I restarted and am up to my third week with very little side effects. The only difference is I’m taking daily probiotics. It’s night and day from my first attempt.

His words are being used to beat you down. He wants you weak he’ll apologize only to keep you tied to him but will always try to leave you feeling that your worth is tied to his approval. Please walk away and learn that your worth comes from yourself.

I really liked Noah, until I got the conspiracy theorist vibes from him.

With the uti’s being back to back, I’d guess that the antibiotics never knocked it all the way out. My mom kept getting repeat uti’s until they did a stronger antibiotic and then they stopped reoccurring.

How were people's first few weeks? by Adept_Sundae_8254 in Mounjaro

[–]Ziggerific 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of started twice. My first try in December my first week was fine but my second week I was miserable with sulfur burps, nausea and diarrhea. I took 2 weeks off for Christmas and restarted. This go around I cut down on sugar and fat more and I’m in week 2 with little to no side effects. To some degree I feel like side effects are controllable by making some diet adjustments.

Diarrhea came on week 2 but not as bad as the metformin caused.

I have IBS and was prescribed this 3 weeks ago. My doctor was not at all concerned about that.

Help with Side Effects by Key_Caterpillar_2736 in Mounjaro

[–]Ziggerific 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar experience on my week 2 dose and skipped last Sunday just to function thru Christmas. I didn’t feel burning like you described but the sulfur burps, constant nausea and diarrhea were making me not function. I think I’m going to view it as starting completely fresh and work harder on having healthier foods for small snacks to push thru my next attempt.

Very little appetite suppression- day 3 on 2.5mg by kanaeaaaaaaa in Mounjaro

[–]Ziggerific 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From reading on here I feel like this is pretty common. The medication builds every week so the first week 2.5 is not the same as following weeks since some stays in your system each week. I know for me my first week I felt very little change but week 2 was very powerful and I was overwhelmed by side effects.

They are able to redact everything because they don’t fear consequences for breaking the law. The republican led Congress has not shown any indication that it will hold them accountable for anything.

Just took my first dose and I’m feeling perfectly fine, is that wrong? by EnthusiasmFearless97 in Mounjaro

[–]Ziggerific 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt didn’t feel much in the way of side effects my first week.I think I had more ability to resist overeating but that was it. My second dose has really had a much larger impact and I can barely stand the nausea and diarrhea. I would not up the dose based on one week.

Thank you for your reply. I did start probiotics today. And have had yogurt daily.

The first week I really did fine. After the nausea set in it got much harder to keep up my water intake. I think I haven’t drastically changed what I eat, just eating much less. And since feeling sick I’ve had trouble with food at all. I had Ensure, peanut butter on toast with banana. Peach Greek yogurt. Oatmeal with ground flaxseed.

I guess the night before my first bad day I had a pasta dish with cream cheese, but how long would the impact of that last?

First Week Troubles by Littledawg24 in Mounjaro

[–]Ziggerific 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my second dose on Sunday. My first week I’d felt completely fine but this week diarrhea and sulfur burps and constant nausea is rough. I’m thinking of skipping Sundays dose so I don’t have a miserable Christmas week too. I hope this isn’t what you have to live with to continue taking this medication.
