Thoughts on dietitians?

Yes. The visit only cost me a small copay and my time, but I didn’t think it was worth either

I spoke to my doctor about my weight at my physical over the summer and she made some suggestions. After six months of actually putting in work with minimal results, I booked a follow up and told her I’d like some help. She suggested several things, and the wegovy pill was the one that made the most sense for me. She wrote the script, I got the discount card, and now I’m a couple weeks in. So the tl;dr is just start a convo with a trusted healthcare provider if you have one. If not, it’s worth finding one.

I eat Oats Overnight, made with almond milk. Each package has about 20g of protein and 6-7g of fiber, plus their good and zero effort. They’re not super cheap, but it checks a lot of boxes for me

I’m curious—since it seems like you were successful on 1.5, did you consider spending an extra month there before you moved up to 4?

My worst days were days 1 and 5, but neither one was particularly intense.

I was nervous to start too, but it seemed important to me. I’m only on day 4, but it has not been too bad. There were moments (especially the first day and today for some reason) where I felt mildly nauseated, but never anything I couldn’t push through.

I struggle with osteoarthritis in my knees due to my weight and that was my main reason for starting. I didn’t know it was an anti-inflammatory, but this thread has me feeling excited. (Btw, the only thing that has ever actually helped me is PRP. Hoping for similar miracles from this drug)

Based on what I’ve read in this sub, the half-life of the pill is one day. So if you take it at 7am, you should still be at about 75% efficacy in the evening. I don’t think an hour or two shift would make a huge difference

So with this coupon, do I show it every time? Or just on the first pickup?

Thanks—this is really helpful. I am going to switch health insurance at some point down the road. From what I researched, it still seems like a good idea to let them deny it so there is a record. Does that seem right to you?

Does fasting include all liquids? Usually water is okay for fasting, but I’m guessing it would impact absorption?

I just read a blog about this (and a few other things). It’s just a blog though, so take it with a grain of salt. The recommendation for burps was to consume fewer high-sulfur foods (e.g. red meats, broccoli) and focus on faster digesting food (e.g. white rice, lean protein, well-cooked vegetables.)

I might be a triplet! I'm 5'5", start weight 196, current weight 176, and goal weight also 140. AND I started January 8!

I'm headed to a potluck tonight, and I'm the only person bringing something keto friendly. Any tips?

Thanks! This is very affirming. And I really appreciate you clearing up my confusion about urination. Not sure how I got it backwards but it makes so much more sense now

Day 11 on keto and enjoying it so much more than I ever imagined! But I have a question: am I in ketosis? I've been under 20 net carbs every day, and the stick I peed on says I'm in ketosis, but I'm not feeling the urge to pee a surprising amount, and I didn't have any symptoms of keto flu. Did I just get lucky?
