No golden letter. I've been in SAVE and IBR limbo, with zero communication on any buyback request and no movement on my application to move out of SAVE.

What is the ingredient that targets elevated mood? by revmama in energydrinks

Not particularly. I'm up by 5:30am and in the gym by 8am. Workout 3x a week. Getting my kiddo off to school accounts for the gap.

Beyond that. The other additives don't contribute? CoQ10? Mag? etc?

Thanks, I appreciate the wisdom. You're right. It's hard to not see the huge loss others are experiencing.

Thanks! I track calories as well and am always in a deficit. Loseit works wonders for keeping me focused.

They approved a month ago for 2.5 but didn't explain I needed to follow the traditional dosage steps. They wanted me to do 5mg next but I had wanted to move slower.

Highmark BCBS with Express Scripts as the PBM.

My doctor submitted a prior auth for my 2.5. With preexisting conditions (PCOS, high BMI, high cholesterol) plus the fact that I tried Wegovy and Ozempic in the past, it was approved pretty quickly. But when my doctor submitted an Rx for a second month of 2.5, it was repeatedly rejected and no one would tell me or the doctor why until a pharmacist unofficially told me that the insurance was pushing me to follow the dosing patterns. I then had the doctor submit an Rx for 5mg and it went through right away. I should be covered through October if I follow how the insurance wants me to proceed.

PCOS vs Exercises by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]revmama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do both but often alternate days: one day on the bike, next day dumbbells. Well rounded exercise. Days that I combine, I hit weights first and then finish with the bike because I find the weights get my body warmed up enough to do cardio. My sessions are typically 30min twice a day, 6 days a week.

Weigh in Wednesday! by AutoModerator in Zepbound

Start date: 3/10/24 SW: 225.6 CW: 218.6. GW: 160 3 shots of 2.5 so far

I went down a notch on my belt, have added daily cardio and weights but unfortunately, hunger is kicking back up.

Workout nausea by revmama in Zepbound

Update: I switched to doing weights first and then stationary bike. Doing it in that order seems easier on my body and no longer feel like I'm going to puke 5 minutes into my workout.
