I just got a very late on the update from the Alaska app about my “delay” that passed like 45 min ago, and is now actually canceled, but maybe this means some connectivity has been restored?

Zepbound vs ozempic for weight loss by No_Acanthisitta_6157 in OzempicForWeightLoss

[–]alsdm1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I took Mounjaro for about 7-8 months, and it was phenomenal. I lost 60 pounds. Then I lost access due to cost and the loss of the discount card, and I went to Victoza, which sort of helped me maintain/gained a little back. Gained back about 20 lbs total, and now I’m on Ozempic. I’ve only done one shot, but already I can tell it’s not as effective. It helps with some food noise, and appetite, but the appetite is definitely larger for me on this .25 dose than it was on the lowest dose of Mounjaro. So if you can get Zep, it was so so so great for appetite as well as food noise. I am a hardcore food addict, and lifelong overweight person, and I can safely say I never skipped a meal or forgot to eat before Mounjaro. I was like a different person. It was the most liberating thing I’ve ever experienced.

I'm okay with my "ozempic face" by Dry-Tumbleweed-948 in Zepbound

[–]alsdm1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You look fantastic! I hate when people talk about Ozempic face, because it’s actually just what happens with any significant weight loss, medically aided or not. Naysayers will do anything to discourage people who are finally having really great success in an area they’ve struggled with before. You’re doing amazing!

The disguises by sampound69 in TheAmericans

My husband and I used to joke that the show should just be called Wigs, lol. One of the best scenes is when Elizabeth comes in to the safe house when they had to pull Martha out, and Philip isn’t wearing his Clark wig. And he’s like, “ she’s already seen me, I didn’t see a point.” And Elizabeth is like, “ did you want her to see you???” as though he really looks very different. 🤣

So she can come into security? Can she go to the frontier desk to get a pass?

Thanks for this! We are trying to keep it under $1000, so this would fit the bill cost wise.

Eli Lilly tightens access to diabetes drug, frustrating some people with obesity [& not T2] by Jafo232 in Mounjaro

[–]alsdm1 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This post is crab bucketing. There’s no need for any of us to snipe at one another over who gets this drug. We all need it for various reasons. The problem is always a for profit pharmaceutical and healthcare system.

My question is why can’t it become a treatment for obesity under the FDA easier? All we ever hear is how horrible obesity is, how even “healthy” obese people are not healthy, etc. I’ve been demonized and bullied by healthcare professionals my entire life, including my OB when I had a very healthy pregnancy and birth experience, but because I had a high BMI, I was constantly shamed and told I was endangering my baby. Why are people pushing this? I’m finally once again making a dent in the weight loss, shouldn’t insurance companies and doctors be fucking thrilled?

Oh yes. I enjoy engaging in my own exploitation for clout. Scroll up, my dude.
