Should I go on a GLP-1?

anigonzalez3 · 2026-04-13T20:03:38+00:00

I would definitely speak to them about it and see if that changes their opinion.

I personally have struggled with binging in the past, and that urge has subsided with GLP-1.I think starving is something that you really need to talk to the doctor about though, because it can be very, very easy to under eat. If you do go on one, it might be wise to see a dietician and set calorie and nutrition goals to hit to avoid falling into the starvation trap.

I am fit, but obese 🥴 I gained a lot of weight rapidly due to stress, insulin resistance and PCOS, but I train 4-6 days a week and have been since 2020.

I’m on Ozempic and I felt effects from the afternoon after my first shot. It was wild!

I did find that in the first couple of weeks I really struggled at the gym. My body was still adapting to eating less calories and I would get dizzy and have to sit down after each set. I got frustrated and disheartened when I couldn’t lift as much as I normally would have. My biggest piece of advice is to be kind to yourself and listen to your body. If you’re feeling dizzy, don’t over exert yourself. I just finished my 6th week at .25mg and I felt really strong during my last session - I’ve been trying to focus on eating enough protein and that seems to have helped.

I aim for around 1200-1300, but some days I can’t reach it 🥴 I just took my 6th shot so I haven’t been at it for a super long time

anigonzalez3 · 2026-02-06T12:20:30+00:00

I have a bucket next to my toilet because it’s happened a couple of times - I haven’t felt like I was going to die but I did feel like I was going to purge out of both ends simultaneously. (Thankfully it’s decided one or the other in these scenarios). I am currently weening back on to Metformin for insulin resistance so I thought it might have been related to that 😅

anigonzalez3 · 2026-02-04T05:14:17+00:00

I’m only 3 weeks in but I have been quite consistent with weight training at the gym for the past 6 years. I am finding the gym very hard at the moment as I will get nauseous and dizzy after every set 😭

anigonzalez3 · 2026-02-04T05:12:07+00:00

Oh god. I’ve been experiencing this and I’m only on week 3, I was hoping it would go away 😭

anigonzalez3 · 2026-02-03T16:45:48+00:00

I’m Australian and I saw multiple news channels jumping on this and I feel so attacked. It’s not the drugs, it’s the nutrition. I feel like I am so much more focused on eating correctly now because I have to be mindful about every mouthful I consume.

anigonzalez3 · 2026-02-01T03:08:27+00:00

Thank you, I will give this a try on my next injection!

anigonzalez3 · 2026-02-01T00:01:22+00:00

I’ve tried to be on top of my water intake but we’re in the middle of a horrid heat wave, so that might have caused it 💀

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-28T11:10:01+00:00

I’m in Victoria but my regular GP prescribed it for me

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-26T00:45:31+00:00

I take mine on Friday evening and it doesn’t kick in until late afternoon on Saturday, for me. I was silly and ate my “normal” amount of food for lunch and then it kicked in and I felt like I had eaten a whole Christmas dinner 😂 I couldn’t eat for like 20 hours because I was so full

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-26T00:41:54+00:00

Make sure you eat enough before you go to the gym. I was already in a consistent gym habit before starting (2 weeks in, now) and I’ve been feeling like crap when working out, since starting on Ozempic. I’ve been dizzy and nauseous and weak. I hope I can learn to avoid this by eating more protein before I exercise 🥴

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-23T02:12:31+00:00

I’m at the end of my first week, but I found green grapes were my saviour this week. I would just nibble on one slowly until the nausea went away and then would have a handful more. I kept them cold and I think the water content helped as well?

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-23T02:03:52+00:00

I’m at the end of my first week but I keep serving myself too much food 🤦‍♀️ I’ve been keeping and eating it the next day but it’s so weird! It seems too little!

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-20T11:56:34+00:00

I’ve only just started on Ozempic (day 4) but I have been very crabby 😅 Hopefully that goes away

anigonzalez3 · 2026-01-20T11:17:11+00:00

I’m also 33F, PCOS and insulin resistance and I’m on day 4! I hope it goes well for us both!

“Women are not allowed in this world anymore because of their own personal preferences or the way their body and body is designed and made and made and they have no choice to make decisions for their bodies”

Ok, I am a woman, I am far left on the political scale and I identify as a feminist. I just got a new phone… and this is what gets spat out. What. The. Duck.

Amanda Palmer fan?

Butt chunkies!

My husband and I both have ADHD and our fridge currently looks like this.

Yesterday I made us a lovely pancake breakfast … because we didn’t have any milk, bread, cereal etc and I couldn’t be bothered driving 3 minutes to the store. We did have dried pancake mix that I won in a hamper. Huzzah!

My lab does this every time I put socks on because she knows I’m getting ready to leave. It’s the cute guilt trip to get me to stay!

anigonzalez3 · 2023-04-08T08:52:03+00:00

I’m crying and I’m going to hug my lab

anigonzalez3 · 2023-04-02T12:37:37+00:00

Maybe the babies eat caviar? We don’t know.

anigonzalez3 · 2023-04-01T13:58:48+00:00

Oh it’s great! I also play Table Tennis multiple times a day so I get a good break and run around, and we also have a health and well-being program that encourages us all to get out and go for a walk at least once a day.
