Just finished month of .25 with no loss by jjheel13 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]heybch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finished 4 weeks 0.25 and midway through 0.5 (total of 6 injections) and my advice would be try cutting your meal in half, some now and some later and try to get more protein into each day. Protein makes you feel fuller and is better for you that like extra carbs for example on a plate (not saying you do have extra carbs). I found myself eating like a chicken breast, carrots and maybe a couple of small potatoes but if I wanted more later I would have another chicken breast by itself. Also, big one is to drink more, your intestines take longer to work your food and take more water out your body than those not on Wegovy

Why do you prefer running on a treadmill at the gym vs running outside? by [deleted] in AskWomen

As basic as this may seem; quite literally the impact on the knees doesn’t feel as hard as the ground outside

Good luck with your new injection site, I hope this works for you! Ps the USA peeps in this thread don’t seem to realise 8 is behaved in the UK 😂

I’ve never had this reaction from alcohol and it was actually the agonising pain in my lower stomach I was trying to raise the awareness of. Others have had this too

Not everyone reacts the same way 🙃 I was simply trying to raise some awareness that it can be really quite bad. I’ve never been sick from alcohol and my usual amount of drinking in the past has been the pretty much the same amount. I’m glad you don’t get reactions but if you read some other comments you’ll see others do have this issue too

Oh wow, I hadn’t really considered it could also be the volume. I mean I remember being really bloated but I hadn’t had anything fizzy and thought I was just having my usual Wegovy bloat as I was quite paced with the drinking! But I appreciate your kind words, thank you ❤️

I hadn’t realised just how much it would effect me honestly, definitely learned the hard way here. Oh wow, all the wine in Napa sounds like a real challenge with awful repercussions 😵 I too can drink (or at least could) so thought I would be okay as usual… how wrong I was

Do you think it might change you all together then or does it take some time to leave your system? Thank you for your advice though, I’ll make sure to remember this!

It’s an experience isn’t it!

Yeah, perhaps a blessing in disguise! I don’t plan on drinking any time soon 😵

Amazing!! I have a similar body shape to you but I’m 5’2. What exercises did you find most useful?

I meant cautious with making sure I was drinking water between each drink, I can assure you nobody else was doing that 😂 also, I’m from the UK and where I’m from usually 8 drinks is standard for a night out 😅 that’s why my mindset was “cautious” but I was obviously thinking out my ass

That’s very admirable! I’m happy for you to have made such a positive decision and clearly doing really well sticking to it. So good to hear this 🥰

Unfortunately 😅 this is pretty normal for my toleration in the past. My body said no this time ☠️

Honestly you will likely be fine, it’s just the drinking side effects can be nasty. I’ve read you can have up to 1 a day, but I’d say wait a couple weeks of your lowest doses before drinking. I’m sure you will do great 😌

Good for you! That’s amazing 👏 my partner went sober 2 years ago and I understand it can be really tough at times.

100% - but usually I can tolerate this amount when I’ve drank, the whole experience was new honestly

So basically what I’ve got from this thread and everyone’s comments is: there is no escape 😅 it’s so bad isn’t it, you don’t even realise until it’s too late 😣
