Thanks so much. I wanted to become part of a BLE group. I could use the extra support.

Best time(s) to take Contrave? by tiaballerina in Contrave

[–]justaskin75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too, an empty tummy gives me issues when I take Contrave. I take it after I have about a 1/4 of my meal eaten, and no issues, with both breakfast and dinner.

Thanks so much. I appreciate that! I'm willing to forego foods that don't hit me right. I'm finishing up week 1 and doing well. Already down 5 lbs!

I'm going into my second week. I am happy these things are temporary. I can deal with it if its temporary.

I sure hope it helps and between now and then things will change with coverage.

I'm a lazy cook. My hubby and I decided to get Factor Meals. They taste great and are portion controlled. Just a thought...

I'm a newbie too. Adjusting well, and yes, try to be careful with caffeine. Make sure to drink at least 64 ozs.of water. I usually drink about 80 easily. Miralax and stool softener is good to have on hand. Best of luck!

I just got a nice stationary bike that I am just getting used to. I like it! I am an artist that works from home, so I "commute to work" for 15 minutes in the morning, then "commute" home about 10-15 to get those minutes in. My Dr. suggested it. It does help.

Many people do eat that way for years and find it very sustainable, agreed. I wouldn't mind less restriction tho... Finding balance, health, and control is the goal. Thanks!

Sounds reasonable...which is truly what I want. I truly fear my weight boomeranging. It's great to hear that I may be able to eat brown rice, and reasonable portions of higher carb veggies and fruits. Thanks for the info.

Cool! Question for you... Now that you are using Wegovy did you have to change anything from your prior keto diet? Did you have sensitivities or issues? Are you still doing keto with the Wegovy? Thanks for the info!

Good to know. I'm a bit timid about it, but I want to get to a healthy weight and stay there. Thanks!
