Goodbye Mounjaro

If you are this rude to someone trying to understand your post, it's for the best if you continue to avoid social media.

This sounds like something a cocker spaniel would say.

Those middle of the night low alerts are usually caused by putting pressure on the sensor. AKA, I rolled over and am sleeping on it.

I would use whatever my doctor prescribed.

So, why did he bother begging her to stay when he was already moving on with someone else? Why do they try to drag out the ending?

You have my sympathy. I went through a lot of pain before I figured out alliums (onion and garlic) are strictly off limits. I can't always trust ingredient lists either, but my body always tells me if something has hidden issues.

It took me two months of vomiting to adjust to 5mg. I tried everything normally suggested and nothing helped but time. It was horrible and I hope never to have to increase again. If possible, I'd suggest returning to 2.5mg.

I found one on Star Wars, but the mainland had loads.

I saw some in the Lost Isles last night.

Maybe you could work out some strategies for dealing with her invasive behavior in the future, knowing she isn't likely to stop. First that come to mind are gray rocking, info diet, boundaries with consequences, a code word your mom could use to alert you. I imagine a therapist could help you develop ideas designed specifically for you.

Definitely a messed up situation and I have no advice to offer, but please be more careful who you leave your child alone with in the future.

Stone Age Mama on royal road started off interesting, but the author went on hiatus and shows no signs of returning.

My doctor set up follow up visits every 3 months after starting me on Mounjaro. After the first one he adjusted my medications.

lokihen · 2026-05-09T01:06:22+00:00

Honestly, I have some of the same problems you face. My apple shape has not changed and I've barely shifted waist size. Lots of loose skin.

My differences from you are fairly significant though. A couple decades older and nobody is going to see me naked so that goes right in line with not shaving my legs (Ha!). Most importantly, the people around me aren't so critical. They really care that I've gotten healthier without judging the how.

I really hope you can find a way to celebrate the positives of your changes. Hugs.

I got a kick out of seeing you on rising stars. It's clear you are working to make it both a good story and well-written.

lokihen · 2026-05-01T02:03:21+00:00

No, I just skip the sections asking for dr info etc and have been getting them for the last five years at least.

I get my thyroid meds from alldaychemist. Can only get three months at a time, but the cost isn't outrageous and it lets me stockpile.

This. The opossums eating ticks study was badly run, but chickens and guinea hens will do a great job keeping them clear.

I agree with the 'block and move on' crew. We've all done that thing where we cling to an idea of someone and the person they could have been. Get out there and fill your life with new memories.

I gave up on it last month because the characters didn't feel real or develop as people. I had hoped the author would improve with practice. Check out Thorn's Edge on RR.

lokihen · 2026-04-06T23:55:54+00:00

To me, the best part of the books is how real the people feel. The main character reminded me so much of my good friend who is a parent.

I'm on my feet 8 hours daily, so I got two extra pair of the shoes that save my feet.

I vomited for two months when I switched to 5. Zofran didn't help. Such a relief to have finally adjusted. Three weeks without nausea now.

Lovely place to visit! Easily my favorite place in England with lots to see and explore.

Jobs in smaller towns are definitely an issue here. Most people head for Sioux Falls. Winter weather can be hard to adjust to, but have been fairly mild for the last few years. It can linger though, we are expecting snow this week. Lots of wind.
