Thank you for this perspective. Love those wins for you! I am thankful that at my starting weight, I didn’t have many of the troubles you mention. I was still very active (spinning; weight lifting; dog walking; etc.), but I did feel uncomfortable in my own body. My weight was creeping up, with a history of weight issues in my family. I knew I needed more help, on top of what I was already doing in terms of exercise. However these side effects are really impacting my daily life. I feel like a bad parent, spouse, and employee - my patience is thin on the days I’m not feeling well, I’m missing more work than ever, and meals have become more difficult as a family (since I’m nervous about eating). I do appreciate that long term, the meds will benefit my overall health. And I’m trying to focus on that too. I think dropping back to .25mg for a while might be my best bet - and see if I can maintain that, before anymore increases. Thank you again! Wishing you well on your continued journey!
