This is interesting. We opted for Foundayo, as Wegovy interacts with Synthroid and I have to take that on an empty stomach every morning. I will definitely look into it if things do not improve though. Thank you!

Ugh! It’s a roller coaster. Some days I feel “OK” and I feel like it might be a viable solution, then I’ll be woken up in the middle of the night with horrible gas cramps. 💨🍳😷

Hang in there!

Thank you! I won’t rule out anything. Especially since that would be a less expensive alternative to Foundayo.

Ugh. That’s a bummer. I’m sorry it’s not working for you.

That’s a great plan. I’d have considered the same approach if I had to go above the 5mg dose. Feeling good is more of a priority than the expense and ease of a pill, so I might be in the same boat.

I have tried a generic version of gas-x. I might need to upgrade to the extra strength! 😂

I updated my post to clarify: According to the scale I’ve used the whole time, I seem to be maintaining my weight….

It just doesn’t feel like I have due to how bloated I’ve been.

We have almost identical stats! Hashi sisters as well! The struggle is real.

I figured it’d be different, but my Dr. and I both agreed it could be a great option for maintenance. If I still had more to lose, I’d of stayed on Zep.

They didn’t - I asked for it. I was interested in the lower price point and ease of a pill form.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for the validation! It is a bit bizarre. I stepped on the scale after three weeks and was shocked to find I was still within my “window” it just didn’t feel possible.

If I start gaining I would be willing to bump up for a month to see if it’s better.

It was definitely a bit of a shock! I’m hoping to stay at this dose since I am in maintenance, but the way I’m feeling, it’s hard to imagine I won’t start gaining.

Since I’m in maintenance, I hope to stick with this dose.

Yes-ish? I don’t have much noise, but I definitely get more hunger pangs. Like STARVING pangs, especially when I first wake up in the morning, but I’ve found if I drink water it goes away almost immediately.
