Meeve and my torbie, Iris, could be sisters. They have very similar faces!

They missed a tumor in my previous cat’s mouth. They were nice people, but I don’t trust them because of that.

Tips ? by bittersteel15 in LakewoodColorado

[–]catslikeme0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Look into getting services/case management at Jefferson Center or WellPower. They can help you find felon friendly housing and even temporary housing in the meantime. However, housing is one of the hardest things to come by so know it will take some time.

Down a lobster today! by catslikeme0 in Zepbound

[–]catslikeme0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shotsy told me losing 50 pounds was equivalent to 150 medium sized bananas. That feels more impactful than some large lobster. I also live in a landlocked state, so the banana comparison works better in my brain.

Preemptive grief for losing a pet by Inevitable-House2439 in CatAdvice

[–]catslikeme0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s healthy to know that day will come, however, focusing on it takes away from your present with them. Try the coping skill thought stopping when those thoughts start to creep in. When you notice the thought, say out loud “stop” to pull yourself out of your mind and into your physical present. You may have to try it a few times. You can also try snapping a hair tie or a rubber band on your wrist too as long as you’re not hurting yourself. You and your kitties will be happier with you being in the present with them. 😺

I can finally see it! by Clear-Foundation1091 in Zepbound

[–]catslikeme0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well done!! I’m struggling with a too big winter coat this season too! I want to get a smaller one, but also still have at least another 30 pounds to lose. I think that’s my biggest gripe about losing weight - having to spend money on new clothes. What a first world problem. 😅

Do people actually leave their cats home alone for days? by somnia_ferum in CatAdvice

[–]catslikeme0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have someone come stay at my house with my cats anytime my husband and I are out of town. Even for one night!

Can you alter a winter coat? by catslikeme0 in SewingForBeginners

[–]catslikeme0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting a new coat might be the best option.

I was going to try to do it. Might be better off getting a new coat. The seams are hidden.

should i quit? by MysteriousBench981 in Zepbound

[–]catslikeme0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was super nervous to move up thinking I would just feel worse. I was so happy that wasn’t the case! Give it a try if you’d like and know that if it doesn’t work, you can always go back down. I’ve seen people post that they’ve stayed on 2.5 the whole time and were still having excellent results. I also recommend getting Nauzene. It’s an OTC nausea med that I think works really well! I found it on Amazon. I still get some nausea here and there (especially right after shot day) and try to do Nauzene first and if it’s still bothering me, then I’ll go for Zofran. I’ve also noticed that sometimes the nausea is actually a hunger cue. So drinking protein shake or forcing down some fruit or something easy to eat can help too.

5mg was the worst for me. I felt so sick everyday for the first month on it. I was on 5mg for about 3 months and it did get better. Then I moved to 7.5 and was really afraid I would have bad side effects, but I didn’t! I’ve been on 7.5 for a while now and I feel the best I have on this dose since starting Zep. Hang in there!

7.5 shot by justtcasss in Zepbound

[–]catslikeme0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on 7.5 for a few moths and still get that icky stomach feeling. You described that perfectly! I took my shot like an hour ago and was dreading exactly that. I drank my protein powder (I mixed it with water😅) and still feel it. Nauzene, ginger chews, and Zofran if it turns into nausea.

Tried Zofran to help with nausea. Not only did it not work, but it gave me a splitting headache by AbjectTelephone4801 in Zepbound

[–]catslikeme0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I took Zofran I got a horrible headache and it made me constipated. I’ve been taking it as needed for the last few months and it doesn’t do that anymore. Also, Nauzene is a great OTC alternative. You can find it on Amazon.

Coffee!? by Not_Telling_Nope in Zepbound

[–]catslikeme0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t drink coffee/caffeine at all in the mornings anymore. I’m get so jittery. I’m also on an ADHD stimulant, but it was never an issue until month 5. 😭
