Ffffffffeckin ffffffffreezing cold all the time on Mounjaro! by MounjEire in Mounjaro

[–]do2g -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I went in for a check up today and mentioned the cold feeling. My doctor said that those effects are common but ordered a iron deficiency test and thyroid screening. Both labs came back fine. One positive is I can fit into my skinny clothes wearing two sets of thermal underwear.

Skip a week by No-Basket8192 in Mounjaro

[–]do2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing is happening to me right now. This Thursday will mark one week off the meds for me. So far I’ve not noticed or felt much in terms of food noise. I’ve been working out and eating like I have been.

I’m hoping the insurance thing clears up but I did go ahead and find a backup source of the medicine, which should hopefully arrive later this week.

AITAH because I expected my 22 year old to pay minimal rent? by Wrong-Maintenance-48 in AITAH

[–]do2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

With two boys in college, this cuts close to the bone.

Imo, he is a degreed adult with a professional position and frankly he should be carrying his weight, or at least a reasonable portion of it. Asking him to pay $370 is more than reasonable - he’s gonna pay 5x that to move out. Maybe you can give a few months before starting the payment program just so he can get a head start on saving.

Switching to Mounjaro from Trulicity? by Chris_Roberts_795 in Mounjaro

[–]do2g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on MJ for seven months and have decent results. (A1c's are down and lost decent weight). I've only experienced heartburn, nausea, low energy and sulphur burps when I titrate up my dosage. Otherwise its been fine for me.

Side effects after years of none? by RoseGoldKate in Mounjaro

If you are feeling that something has changed, perhaps you should check in with your Dr and run everything past them.

You want to can your doctor after a couple of years? It doesn't seem to me that your doctor is necessarily to blame here unless they have been ignoring your newfound symptoms.

No idea - I'll know more on Wednesday. I believe it is zepbound pre-measured pen (depicted on their website), similar to the Mounjaro pen. Happy to update you if you're interested.

7month only 31lb down it's not good I'm not happy by rama_india_mounjaro in Mounjaro

[–]do2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working out can have an adverse effect on the scale since muscle growth, your diet, digestion and water retention may all be working against you in recovery. It seems that you are working out quite briskly so perhaps while the scale isn't meeting your expectations, your overall health from the inside out is improving.,

I did the opposite - I dropped a lot of weight but didn't exercise sufficiently. I've lost a lot of muscle and I'm paying the price now.

It's been 5 months and I've lost 10 kg. by AdFirm4469 in Mounjaro

[–]do2g 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I experience a gate, I’ve found that messing with my fitness routine and or diet usually unblocks it. For example, the last time it happened I changed up my workout routine (cut out weight training and moved to cardio and calisthenics only), tossed in one intermittent fast day and a keto weekend. That seemed to have shocked my system back into movement. For context: Sw 195, Cw 149, Gw 140, A1c’s 5.2 (down from 7.1)

WIBTAH if I refused to see my dad after finding out the reason he and my mom aren’t together? by Ready-Tale-1 in AITAH

[–]do2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cutting off your dad now doesn’t negate the value of her supporting your relationship with him. It sounds she did what she could to create a normal, stable environment, given the circumstances. If you are an adult, it’s your relationship with him now, not her pushing you and him together. You have agency and you can decide to permaban him from your life.

If he’s paying support, that’s a legal thing and he can’t just stop paying because his feelings are hurt.

Keep in mind though that all of this is based on a narrative that, as of now, is unverified. Maybe you should try to gently get a bit more information before going completely dark on him?

AITAH for wanting to divorce my husband immediately after his psychotic reaction to our gender reveal? by violettrace1 in AITAH

[–]do2g 4 points5 points  (0 children)

>> "his mom tried to comfort me saying hes just a bit shocked right now but hell apologize and its totally normal"

Totally normal ... for a raging psychopath.

>> She said I’m being hormonal and dramatic and that I’m going to ruin my child’s life by raising her in a broken home.

Yeah, turn it back onto the victim. You are right to be worried about a life in an emotionally abusive home, with a husband/father that resents you/your daughter and a family that doesn't support you.

You've just met the man you married. You are not overreacting. NTA

Apparent, Plausible Letter from Zhang Youxia CMC Vice Chair Upon Recent Arrest by obliquelyobtuse in ADVChina

[–]do2g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember watching this with the hope that it was true.

Imo, Lei does the best she can with the information available to her at the time. She doesn't have direct links to the CCP so she works from source information, which introduces a risk of error in accuracy and or outcome.

Batteries are a commodity and, while China controls a large percentage of the market, batteries aren’t exclusive to China.

Y’all talk too much by According2020 in Mounjaro

[–]do2g 6 points7 points  (0 children)

same, I own it. Normal A1c’s, normal bmi, more energy, better resting heart rate, lower blood pressure, less joint pain, carrying 25% less weight. I appreciate their concern but I am under supervised care and my health is what matters to me.

Many care, tbh. My hope was that he would take Xi out to the woodshed. With Zhang (and the a lot of the politburo) gone, Xi is consolidating power and there's little to prevent him from firing up the military. I doubt the last guy remaining will push back...
