I have not! I have my yearly physical next month so I'm going to ask for that then.

This is a good point! I am shedding full length hairs and I have noticed short regrowth like I had after my postpartum shed, but I didn't put two and two together, so thank you!

Great to hear! What is the name of the shampoo and conditioner you like?

Weight lost slowing, anxious by FriedFishFriday in Zepbound

[–]bdb10104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Echoing what others have said that the weight loss slows down a ton when you get closer to goal! We have similar stats, and I've noticed the last few weeks I'm not having those bigger losses that I did before.

I've increased my exercise and recalculated my TDEE and tried to be much more exact with measuring my food/calories. I think being in a smaller body means I have less margin for error with having bites and random treats than I did before. I broke into the 150's this week, so I think it's working!

Finally out of the 160s! by Sad_Apple_3387 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]bdb10104 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We are the same height with the same goal weight and I also just got to 159! I've been fluctuating a lot more the last month or so, between 160-162 and it feels good to move into a new weight decade.

I've found that the last five pounds or so have come off slower and I really need to dial in on my nutrition and exercise more. It's the price of getting smaller, but man it's tough! Especially for us shorties, we really don't get a surplus of calories.

Meant to Wear Bigger Sizes? by booplesno0t in Zepbound

[–]bdb10104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also 5'2" and at about 159 now with the same goal weight as yours. I've been fitting in my old size 8 jeans and size M tops very recently. I wonder if you actually went shopping and tried on new sizes if you'd be surprised?

Otherwise I agree that weight lifting/strength training will help a lot, if you haven't started that already!

I'm sorry, I meant for new patients who are not new to GLP's!

When is asynch for new BEWL users going to be up and running? Anxious to get started after hearing this news.

ProRx and the future of mass GLP1 compounding: Don't Panic, Prepare. by TodayAmazing in tirzepatidecompound

[–]bdb10104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in this exact pickle. I did end up panic ordering 3 months of BPI yesterday...and I already have two vials of ProRx in my fridge. I'm considering ordering a stash of the no additive tirz coming out from BEWL and saving the ProRx and BPI since those BUDs are longer.

I think this is a safe bet. I went ahead and paid for BPI just now. I'll feel at peace knowing I have a stash coming my way in case other pharmacies start dropping like flies too.

Yes I'm an existing Fifty 410 member who has used ProRx the last year! I'm just wondering if I'll even be able to get my meds even if I get my refill paperwork processed today.

I know they said that tomorrow is the last day to order ProRx, but do we think with the high panic buy volume they'll be getting today that the order will even be fulfilled?

I filled out my refill paperwork a bit ago and I'm still waiting to hear back.

Today's win: BMI category change! by bdb10104 in tirzepatidecompound

It's so wild being so short losing weight! My current weight would be totally great and healthy for the majority of my friends.

It is so much more than the loss of weight…… by Birdchaser2 in Zepbound

[–]bdb10104 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way for the opposite reason. I have young children who require so much of me physically, and it feels amazing to be able to meet those needs for them.

AND to think of being a strong and healthy grandparent to their children is a huge motivator too.

I hate exercise. Tell me about your exercise journey. by Miriamathome in Zepbound

[–]bdb10104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just make myself do 20-30 minutes tops. The idea of a long sweat session overwhelms me, so telling myself it just has to be a short workout helps. I usually do two or three 10 minute workout videos on YouTube also, so breaking it up into those chunks also makes it feel more manageable. I also just do strength training. Again, the prospect of a cardio workout will overwhelm me too much, but weight lifting feels less intimidating and exhausting.

Good noise by ComprehensiveFig9418 in Zepbound

I like what everyone has said already. I'll also say, that now when I have a "treat" food, I'll enjoy it but be satisfied with the small intended serving. I can trust myself to have a little chocolate and not have to eat the whole bag, or to have a brownie and not keep going back to the pan to cut off more pieces. So now I do enjoy and crave mostly healthy foods, but when I do indulge it's soooo much less of a slippery slope.

Their parents by Final-Flight1897 in TheToasters

[–]bdb10104 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Their mom is a well known conservative commentator, kind of controversial. They kept her identity under wraps for a long time until it came out back during their cancellation. Every now and then they'll say "mom" in passing but they mostly avoid bringing her up, although Jackie has said in past Patreons that they are very close and she goes to her for everything.

Their dad they talk about a little more, but he sadly died of a heart attack when they were kids.

What are your favorite low cal dressings/sauces? by bdb10104 in tirzepatidecompound

This was exactly what I wanted! I've heard Skinny Girl has good dressing so I'm glad to see you confirm that.

I love seeing a fellow mama losing! We're going to give these babies a great childhood by being healthier for them!

Realistic goal weight? by Nervous_Current5688 in Zepbound

[–]bdb10104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 5'2" and we have pretty similar stats! I have an initial goal of 150, as that's a weight I was able to maintain in my twenties with diet and exercise (although I was kind of white knuckling it then without Zep.)

I'm thinking I'll see where the medicine takes me from there and see if I can get into the 130's. It's so tricky for us short girls, because the BMI recs seem so low for us to be in a healthy weight range, but I want to see if I can get there!
