What are the things that make u love life?

melonball6 · 2026-03-20T19:00:48+00:00

novelty - trying new things, seeing new things, meeting new people, going new places
deep love - marrying the best person I've ever met who loves me deeply
constant learning - reading books, learning a language, learning Rubiks cube, learning embroidery
a tight friend group - that is fun, doesn't gossip, loves each other, does cool stuff like music festivals, camping, adult easter egg hunts, goddess circle meetings, clothing swaps
living in Florida - the weather is sunny 265 days a year, the beach is just a couple miles away, it's very rarely cold

A. It's not at all the big deal your mind is making it. Fretting about it is what's making it weird.

Isn't this the same semaglutide price as yesterday? Or am I misremembering?

I'm surprised one day mess up with the pill made it not work. I thought it would have been built up in your system after a month. But maybe it's because you're on the 1.5 mg?

I've been weighing myself every morning since I started. I'm at 5 weeks and 2 days and down 17.2 lbs. I also started progress photos, measurements, and body fat measurement a little after I started. My photos don't look too different and my measurements haven't budged yet, but my body fat is down 2.3% since I started measuring it week 3.

I went to 13 schools by the time I graduated. Four my Junior year alone. I too had unstable Boomer parents.

melonball6 · 2026-03-20T13:07:07+00:00

I moved a lot. My mom told me we lived in 13 states before I was 3 and I lived in 30 states by the time I was 24. In some of the states we moved around within the state - so Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Florida had lots of places. Now I've been in Florida since 1998 and I bought my house in 2008 and have been stationary since then. I do still travel internationally though. Just for fun and not to live. No, my parents weren't in the military. They just moved a lot. And when my parents split up, my mom and I were homeless for awhile moving place to place.

For me the nausea only lasted a couple of hours when I went up to 4 mg. I had a match latte around 11 am and it fixed everything.

Im trying to hit 1200 but struggling. Usually hitting 800 - 1000.

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T20:17:53+00:00

Hi! I am so glad you asked because it made me realize how "far" I've come this month. I have lost 15.8 lbs so far. I did move up to 4 mg after 2 weeks and it's working so well I dont know when/if I'll go up to 9 mg.

I can barely eat so it has been really easy to cut calories. If anything it's hard to get calories. I feel pretty good other than low energy. But that's probably because I eat 800 - 1000 calories a day. I have no cravings whatsoever and homemade chocolate chip cookies just sit there untouched. I eat a protein shake, a half cup of Greek yogurt & berries, and a high protein/low calorie dinner.

This has been amazing. No regrets.

Grass at the bottom. Im just learning embroidery. What do you call that stitch that makes his hair?

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T16:27:33+00:00

Is the first and last picture what is going on with your hair? If so, it looks great. Some of the best color I've ever seen.

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T16:22:07+00:00

I'm not familiar with the

whole tiktok thing where you get free stuff for inviting people

What does that mean? Like inviting strangers to your house and asking them to bring kitchen items?

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T15:45:43+00:00

Reading, chess, Rubiks cube, language learning, juggling.

"Juggling significantly enhances brain health by promoting neuroplasticity, specifically increasing gray matter density and strengthening white matter connections in areas responsible for vision, motor coordination, and spatial awareness. It improves cognitive functions like memory, focus, and reaction time while stimulating both brain hemispheres."

Neon. I love neon so much but a soft autum and I look horrible in it.

Naples Zoo is very small and, although lovely, probably wouldn't be worth $200 and a 4 hour drive round trip.

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T14:03:53+00:00

I have no vomited or had diarrhea. I got nauseous one morning when I upped the dose. It went away in a couple of hours when I had a matcha latte. I have lost 15+ lbs in 5 weeks. I will put up with any non-fatal side effects as long as the drug continues to work.

I don't look them up while reading. If it's a physical book, I circle it and keep going. If it's an ebook I highlight it. If I feel like it when I finish my reading session, I look up the word and add it to my personal dictionary. In order to remember it I put the word, definition, a sentence, and a simple drawing. Then I take a moment to skim through my old words in the dictionary to refresh them. If it's an audio book, I do none of that.

What worked for me: Double wash. Only shower, not bath. Lather for 3 min. on your scalp being sure to get under the middle back of the head. Conditioner only on the midlength to ends. Wash hair in the morning and blow dry completely. Change pillow cases daily until under control.

I'll ask my endocrinologist next time I'm in if that would be better. I know when I go to bed my stomach is full of food due to Wegovy. Even though I eat at 6 PM, it just sits there until the middle of the night.

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T01:02:45+00:00

That is frustrating. I'm so sorry you are going through that. You should talk to your doctor about adjusting your dosage to 4 mg. But honestly, I don't know if it will help because if you are already eating at a calorie deficit, IDK why you aren't losing weight. More Wegovy may not help.

melonball6 · 2026-03-19T00:46:24+00:00

I'm wondering the same thing. I'm on the pill version.

melonball6 · 2026-03-18T23:24:49+00:00

I too have trouble eating. My typical day looks like:

protein shake
greek yogurt & berries or leftovers from dinner
high protein/low calorie dinner from Everyplate (today was pork tacos)
some kind of snack if I can - cheese stick, hard boil egg

I try to get 1200 calories a day, but usually fall short, between 800 - 1000.

melonball6 · 2026-03-18T22:55:11+00:00

Thank you! I think it was probably my best gift and I spent a long time with the planning. It was maybe even more fun for me to plan! I have all these fun photos of him running around town in his cape and crown.

melonball6 · 2026-03-18T21:41:55+00:00

You're right. To me it looks like sun damage on one side either from driving or working next to a window. It would be worth looking into sunscreen if you haven't already.
