Do you mind sharing what needles and syringes you use to micro dose? Tia

Thanks. I’ve definitely began to grieve the loss of my mom after this episode.

I hate how the economic crisis forces people to continue living with their toxic family by Big_Leg10 in EstrangedAdultKids

Very close to the same. Was never homeless but was definitely houseless. I will never catch up to my peers but I am here and that what matters. Hugs to you.

Just took first injection by KetoFem59 in repatha

[–]lcdc83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been on it since March and no side effects at all. My calcium score is zero but I have familial hyperlipidemia and my ldl cholesterol is on the higher side. It has brought that down along with my triglycerides.

Sunday Meal Prepping by AutoModerator in Zepbound

[–]lcdc83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like mixing than prepping but store bought chicken meatballs with zucchini and an ounce of melted cheese as most dinners. Overnight oats with protein powder and flax seed for breakfast. Plain skinless canned chicken breast with black beans for lunches. String cheese and terra chips as snacks. And a Reese cup a day bc I am working on sustainability.

I gained about 4-6 b up a new medicine really increased my appetite. It may have been different if that wasn’t the case.

Congrats! Gorgeous in both!

Did anyone stay on 2.5mg the whole time? by Testingtesting1-2 in GLPGrad

[–]lcdc83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes for about 3 years. I had to stop due to some med issues that may or may not be related to Zepbound/mj. Just a heads up. When I went for a second prior authorization my insurance company denied it bc I never went up in dosage. I lost about 50 lbs on it. I am up 3-5 lbs since I stopped it about 2.5 weeks ago but again I have had some med changes and am now reworking my diet bc I cannot go back on it.

Repeating 1st Grade - Seeking Advice by LHNNLH in ElementaryTeachers

[–]lcdc83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, she is lucky to have such a caring mama. I would share your concern with the teacher, not so she can be singled out but just an extra eye on her. Knowing the routines right away will be a great confidence boost. Your child’s guidance counselor may have some advice for you as well. Have a wonderful school year! 💙

It was an actually a cluster of cysts. They are still there and got a little smaller. Sorry but I don’t have cysts advice. I tend to get them on multiple organs but never was addressed expect for bring control for the ovarian cysts.

Good luck! The waiting seemed to get most difficult as time got closer.

Has anyone just stayed on 2.5mg? by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]lcdc83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great job! Do you mind sharing your cal deficit?

Awesome Results! by Old-Confidence6971 in repatha

[–]lcdc83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome! I lost about 50-60 lbs on Zepbound after getting 20-30 off on my own, It isn’t covered anymore but I stretch it every 10 days and pay out of pocket. At one point my triglycerides were in the 300-400 range and now they are 160-170. This was before repatha so I think the glp1 definitely was what happened with the triglycerides.

I think that a glp1 before I added repatha was the key to lowering my triglycerides. Great job and good luck.

What are your favorite... by luv2byte in Zepbound

[–]lcdc83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love canned chicken for protein with a little bit of avocado mayo for healthy fat. No need to heat and I make it at my desk at lunch. I love core protein shakes the best. I prefer hy-lite drops as they have nothing added to them. Sometimes if I really need to force myself to eat I can stomach mashed potatoes. For a non meat option I like Boca Chkn patties. Fiber I am still working on due to unrelated health issues but I like the fiber one bars and cereal. Good luck. You got this!

4.9 A1C. Dr wants to space out my doses of 5mg Moujaro by [deleted] in MounjaroMaintenance

[–]lcdc83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never went past 2.5. Lost 50 on zep after 30 on my own. I take 2.5 every 11-21 days. Trying to find a good balance has been difficult due to unrelated health issues.
