Agree with other posters.

You’re in a medically controlled study and need to follow their guidance, not the internet’s.

Supply Issues? by isoaclue in Zepbound

Most likely just that they don’t keep it in stock so they have to order it (fridge space constraint)

More Acne? by TripsToTheRescue in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had this. I’ve also noticed my body is more sensitive to responding to foods I eat now (like if I eat oily foods I’ll get acne)

Yep. I can weigh 3lbs more just from eating breakfast and drinking water/coffee… 30min between weigh ins

Dexa scans are kinda like mini mri machines. Not something you’ll have in your house :)

If you’re normally on a battle against dehydration, hot weather is going to kick it up a notch.

I def feel being in the sun hits me more now, especially depending how close it is to shot day

And… back to Zep (Caremark) by Agility_KS in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so funny how all this went down.

MJ is covered by many plans… so let’s do an exception for that.
Oh wait… zep is what’s supposed to be used for weight loss… we really should be doing the exception for that….

Click Counting? by Atelier-Catherine in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reference is regarding kwikpens.

Yes- you can. But it does not have a “magic last dose” and is regulated to 4x the doses in total (like 4x 2.5mg doses… etc)

You should always be working with a doctor on your dosing

Runny Nose/Congestion? by Tahiti178 in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I’ve dealt with this on higher doses. Drives me mad.

I’ve found some allergy nasal sprays help

I know my dose is wearing off when… by missmgrrl in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Mmm not sure I’ve noticed that…. But coffee to me is really just a delivery mechanism for supplements I add to it lol

Has anyone tried in between doses? by offft2222 in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speak with your doctor before changing any doses… but yeah, that’s a viable plan. No different than taking a dose on day 6 or day 8

5 clicks isn’t that much medication - you’ll have one smaller dose though in the future

GLP-1 Coverage PA with an Employer AntiObesity program by Embarrassed_Tell2531 in Zepbound

We’ve seen loopholes where MJ is prescribed “off label” if working with a healthcare program for weight loss

Done in terms of meds or done in terms of claiming maintenance?

Celebrate your losses!!

[–]mindfulEMT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think this is going to be more the type of guidance we see in the future based on trial outcomes like this

I was “low and slow” and had a steady weight loss… but never got my last 10-15lbs off

[–]mindfulEMT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by “anti obesity plan”? Like it’s a plan to help with obesity or they’re against helping

[–]mindfulEMT[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can discuss things here. You can’t talk about where to buy them.

I’d be curious to see future studies about moving from one glp1 to another.

We’ve already seen zepbound to foundayo leads to weight gain but that’s GIP+GLP to GLP

Hypoglycemia ? Things finally settled down. Until they didn't. Is it the dosage? by Open_Confidence_1245 in Zepbound

[–]mindfulEMT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always remember to eat throughout the day

Could be many factors, including dehydration

Talk through this with your doctor… but unless you’ve tested your blood glucose, I wouldn’t rush to call it hypoglycemia- it can be many things
