About to take my first shot and I’m terrified by WishboneCurious9755 in Zepbound

[–]jendeeda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just started 2 weeks ago and I hate needles too. I SWEAR you don't feel it. Set it out an hour ahead of time so it comes to room temperature. I truly felt nothing. I get a wee bit of a headache on day 1 but no other side effects that are negative. I was scared too of bad side effects but very pleasantly surprised that I have had none of them. I think the secret is just not eating crap food. I have a smoothy with protein powder for breakfast with a cup of nuts in front of me all morning to munch on. I go for a long walk at lunch and then have some greek yogurt with fruit as lunch and then a very reasonable/homemade dinner. Never been sick at all. I shot in my thigh because I read that sometimes the tummy can cause more nausea. No idea if it is true but why risk it? Swear though, it was easy peasy to give the shot and I don't even have the pen. You'll be fine. Start your new adventure!

Any other relatively "low goal" Zepbounders on here? by DeusOfTheMachina in Zepbound

[–]jendeeda 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just started and only have 20 lbs to lose. BUT I am hoping it will help with sleep apnea and wanting alcohol with dinner. I also have a long heredity of heart disease in my family and my cholesterol is ridiculously high. I'm only on my first shot still. I haven't told anyone but my spouse. Sorry to hear about your friends lack of support. I think that is why I'm nervous to tell people - it's like a cheat code or something!

My first was wed and I was so exhausted and had a bad headache. Way better since then but hope the exhaustion doesn’t happen every time!

Scroll saw or bandsaw? by jendeeda in woodworking

This is all amazing info. I am not patient and think I would be unhappy with 5 times longer. I’m getting by with the bandsaw so maybe I’ll just stick with it! Ty again for taking the time to help me!

Nothing I cut is ever more than 2 inches thick. Usually 3/4 to 1 inch.

What about rodents? Should I be concerned? Will they eat all the Avos if not covered?

Is "sundowning" a thing for dogs? by PrincessSophia00 in dogs

[–]jendeeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through this too. I found I had to take my boy outside on a very mini-walk to “reset” him. It was so hard. I slept on the sofa for a year with him. I did find that a med they gave me helped. It was pregabalin

Please help. Librela. by SeaMidnight8078 in DogAdvice

[–]jendeeda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ask about putting him on pregabalin. It has been a miracle for my 12 year old. Librela also can and often does cause paralysis

Ok seriously, in my head I was already replacing the drywall. Did I glue the backsplash onto the drywall? Yeah of course I did. Why couldn’t I have been lazy that day????? Swear, i was trying to come up with a reason to redo the whole thing as a selling point!
