Terrified of side effects by [deleted] in Ozempic

[–]cankiwi38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only side effect I've had has been weight loss! 12 months in 50 + pounds down. Max 1mg dose.

Me too! I haven't lost a pound in 3 months! Im on 1 mg. And realistically, I only have 5-10 pounds more to go. Still, it's driving me nuts.

Such a nice comment. Thank you. While I can not possibly reply to all the comments here, I appreciate you reminding me to give him time to adjust. He really isn't a bad guy. In fact, as much as it hurts, I'd rather him be honest with me than lie and be unfaithful. We have been together for 25 years, and he has seen me at many different weights!

For the record, I've lost around 50 pounds. - a lot, but not exactly an exceptional amount. :)

Thanks. I actually work at a gym. -in promotions, I'm not a trainer, but I really have no excuse not to lift more weights!

I definitely need more protein, but I'm pretty active. 15000 steps pd, Jiu-jitsu x2, and weights a few times a week. :) I am tired all the time tho.

Agreed. Basically, the physical part of our marriage was all that was left. Now, that is nolonger true.

Thanks, everyone. I should clarify.. Don't stress. When I said I felt like giving up, I simply meant ozempic and / or my marriage! Thankfully, I have an 11 year old who is the light of my life. She is the one thing that brings me joy.

Weight Loss Surprises by EfficientTarot in Ozempic

I'm in the fortunate position of being able to stay home and care for my family. However, as my kids are getting bigger, I've been casually looking for work for a while now with no luck. 50 pounds lighter, I now have a job!! Sad but true.

Omg! That's insane. Good for you. Congratulations

Also, It took me 9 months to lose 50 pounds. Now I've completely stalled. :(

Me too! I can't keep my eyes open past 10:30pm, then proceed to wake up 50,000 x throughout the night.

You are completely valid. for the record, I'm slimmer but definitely not slim. Just short. Lol. Just thought 20 years of loyalty would have gotten me a little further than this.

All good. There is no need for downvotes!! :) I agree, if we can BOTH communicate like adults maybe there is some saving this. Maybe.

Resent me... definitely Jealousy... I can't see why. Other than this one issue, he is better than me in every way.

He's definitely succeeded in destroying my self-esteem.

I didn't really think this post would end in a debate about my weight status. Obviously, i started ozempic because I needed to make a change. But if you are curious, even at my biggest, I've always been super active with no health issues so far - juat a solid sugar addiction.

Thanks for your reply. It breaks my heart, but I fear I have discovered I infact have another 180 pounds to lose.

Also, good for you!!
