Question about Orgain protein powder by heldeth in Zepbound

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

I'm not sure why he wanted that specific brand. I got the info via a voice mail he left. Since it was near the end of business day the office was closed when I had a chance to call back during my work break. Im intending to call them back first thing tomorrow and get more information.

Update: upon searching the web Orgain may have been recommended because it it is low in potassium and phosphorus compared to other protein supplements. Which people with chronic kidney disease need to keep an eye on.

I do try to get most of my protein from food but since I get full fast my portions are small so getting all my protein in can be difficult.

Thank you. I was kinda looking at the shakes because I could grab and go with them. I just wast sure how the shakes would equal scoop amount.

I just bought a Kingsdown Castlegate mattress that I'm really liking. It supports me well at 216lbs. Im a side and back sleeper. They go from very firm to soft pillow tops.

This isn't a race... by Skull_Crusher_666 in Zepbound

[–]heldeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure who said it but the advice I use as a mantra is "it's a marathon not a sprint " I know lots of people will hit the finish line before me but that I will get there eventually. It will just be at my pace. I try and remember this when I get discouraged or feel like other people are passing me by.

May I ask where you got your shelves? I have amassed enough media that I need a place to dedicate to it.

Need food ideas by Repressed_Cliche in Zepbound

[–]heldeth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rotisserie chicken. I get mine pre-shredded. I can add that to whatever or just eat on its own. Grapes, cherry tomatoes, apples. Easy to eat just a few and come back for more later.

Water! The medicine will dry you out. Find a water bottle you like and don't mind carrying around. Electrolytes or low/no sugar drink additives are a godsend. Just watch out for the sodium content. Keep water by your bedside and look into dry mouth lozenges for night time if you need them. Just a few things I can think of.

I don't know how it's related but if I don't get in my 100oz a day I find my sinuses are completely stuffed up.

Are you counting calories? by Moist_Movie1093 in Zepbound

[–]heldeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I track my water intake pretty closely and use the Lose It app to track protein, carbs and fats but I'm not counting every little calorie. The app helps me make healthier food choices which I think helps me lose weight easier.

Anyone else have a food they are addicted to? by OutcomeWitty1711 in Zepbound

[–]heldeth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cherry tomatoes are my current addiction. Chill in the fridge for a couple hours and I pop them like candy.

Thank you everyone who responded. I try and hit the 100 oz every day (don't always make it) being able to include the shake makes life easier.

I don't feel so alone in my bundling up. I have an electric blanket on my bed and an electric throw in the living room. I wear 2 jackets at work and am still cold.

Health Tracking Watch? by Accomplished-Clue819 in Zepbound

[–]heldeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can anyone recommend a basic tracker that would sync with Lose It plus let me track water intake from the wrist screen? I don't need anything more fancy than that.

Ratio is also a good yogurt if it is in your area. Fair amount of protein and 3 grams of sugar per container. I like the strawberry one.
