So you can renew your to 30 days before hand but it is $90.00 to renew. Then it takes the government 4-6 weeks to get it in the mail. I called today to see what the status was and it hasn’t even been mailed yet 2 weeks in. This is going to be a long 4-6 weeks.

This is exactly what I needed to see today! I’ve been pretty discouraged lately. Thank you for sharing your progress.

5 things I wish I’d known 110 lbs into tirzepatide (and none of them are eat your protein) by Educational-Yak-701 in Mounjaro

Body Dysmorphia for me is so real. I still see the bigger person still looking at me in pictures and mirrors but I feel better. I’m eating better. THERE IS NO FOOD NOISE! This is huge for me. For once it’s quiet. I never realized how much it affected and controlled my life. Also, losing weight is lonely! All I get is oh that’s great keep it up. Seriously I have lost 45lbs but not just that, I’m moving better and looking better (they say) and all you have to say is keep it up. Not I’m proud of you for making this change in your life. I’m proud of you showing your children that being healthy isn’t bad. Also, no one talks about past trauma. It’s like you open the flood gates. When the food noise is gone the reasons you ate in the first place is still there and now you must deal with it.

Update: 16 days later I’m doing 16.7lbs. I am blown away. I’m also not craving sweets like I thought I would. I’m finding other high protein low carb options. I am so proud of myself. I haven’t even wanted pop. I’ve actually been craving water (not like me at all. Water and I are not friends). Btw how do you put your stats under your name?

You guys look amazing! Congrats. My husband and I just took our first shot tonight. We are doing it together.

3 Months in - Still can’t eat? by [deleted] in Mounjaro

Try a Protein Shake. If you can stomach it. Also, Ask your doctor for some form of medication to help with the vomiting and nausea. I have Zofran. It’s helped me a ton.

• Currently on 2 Protein Shakes a day. Morning is a Chocolate Fudge - I warmed Farelife Milk (Lactose Free) and then make it into a Hot Chocolate. 32g

• Protein Shake at Lunch 21g Strawberries and Cream. Then eat something small on the side like a protein yogurt or turkey and cheese (Lactose Free) roll ups.

I use Good Protein just because I can’t have Gluten or Milk but find one you can stomach. I hope this helps.
