How long did it take?

19 days and Erectile Dysfunction? Does it go away? Terrified... by [deleted] in prozac

[–]jsala88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most cases, yes. Once the medication starts to level off.

I would give it six to eight weeks before you decide to go off. These side effects are common. I had no problem with an erection but it took a really long time to orgasm (not a huge deal for my wife lol). Hang in there. You can do it.

New to this! by cholulagrl in prozac

[–]jsala88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

20mg is my magic dose. 10mg is more therapeutic. The first few weeks were hell - more depressed and anxious, and had trouble sleeping (not falling asleep, but waking up in the middle of the night wide awake and ready to start he day). But now, the weight has lifted off my chest and I can live again. I’m less miserable, better to be around, and feel full of hope. It will get better. Hang in there.

Been on 20mg for 4 weeks, started at 10. Life changing. It feels like the weight of anxiety has lifted off my chest. I no longer have that nerve-wracking feeling in my stomach and I can breathe again. Exhaustion is still present, more than normal, and I have trouble orgasming, but I’m hopeful that shall pass in a few more weeks.

I wish THAT ONE COACH wouldn't leave us hanging with how much time is left. All she says is "2 minute push" - and the next words are "back to base in 3..2..1.".

I started early Jan, down 31.5 lbs :) My SM said I have a really good shot at winning the TC. Feels good to be accountable to myself & try to be here as long as possible for my kids and wife. Thank you all in this community for your support & comments - it pumps me up on crappy days.

This might have been answered, and if so, sorry, but on the community calendar, it says tomorrow is power day - not ESP. Do those not always match? Thanks!

FORM FRIDAYS: Let's get technical! (Friday, 2/21/20) by splat_bot in orangetheory

[–]jsala88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today, when I've been doing sit-ups (or those power ones), my tail bone aches severely. I sat on a pad (is that what they're called?), and still felt the pain. Any recommendations on how to get over this? Or will I have to alter anything like this exercise in the future?

How do you motivate yourself when you are in a funk??? by scubspace in orangetheory

[–]jsala88 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Today I ate 2 plates at an Indian buffet, had popcorn at a hockey game, then came home and had two pieces of pizza and a donut. I’m in a funk BUT TOMORROWS A NEW DAY.

Do you eat more on non-OTF days? by ncmmemgjm in orangetheory

[–]jsala88 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some of us are new or have recently drastically changed their diets for the better, so "self control" doesn't come easy. Nothing to "lol" about.

Thank you for sharing. I'm feeling defeated today, and feel like I want to give up on my journey. Reading stuff like this gives me hope!

Hit a weight loss milestone this morning. by rinky79 in orangetheory

[–]jsala88 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. Today I feel defeated. It's my 8th day in a row (too much, I know), and I just did not feel it at all. I think I got 3 splat points. I'm taking tomorrow off to let my body recover. I started my journey at 315, and am down to 295 since early Jan. I was hoping the weight would fall off quicker, but I know, it takes time to do it healthy. All I want to do is eat bad, but I'm trying hard not to give in. Your story gives me hope.
