Elizzikra March 7 Share March 7 Just now, MsVixen said: Speaking of Ozempic, does anyone think that Dr. Now would incorporate it in his program? I don't know. He seems pretty focused on willpower and decision-making. I also don't know how many of his patients could get it; I think a lot of them are on Medicaid and I think Medicaid won't pay for it unless the patient has Type II diabetes. It's like $2,000/month so I don't think any of them can afford it without insurance. 3 1 Link to comment
Hellga March 7 Share March 7 Mom is not out of the range of normal somewhat overweight older American woman. Good to see them trying to exercise, but do they eat better??? 2 Link to comment

I loved O, until I got pancreatitis. I'd still recommended it for diabetics, though. It worked for me when other meds did not. 1 1 Link to comment

DropTheSoap March 7 Share March 7 2 minutes ago, Auntie Anxiety said: I lost about 30 pounds after I adopted my dog in 2022. Mostly, I don’t get up from my chair anymore for snacks while I watch tv because she’ll think I’m getting ready to take her out and she won’t quit bugging me once that happens. I've been losing since I got the pupper, also. We have minimum 3 times going out per day, with longer walks/playtime on weekends when I'm not working and she's not playing at daycare. She is getting good at not asking for people food. 8 Link to comment
Hellga March 7 Share March 7 At least she came back! On time! And hopefully she lost a decent amount, though I don't think she will have met the goal. 2 Link to comment

Pepper Mostly March 7 Share March 7 3 minutes ago, CrazyInAlabama said: I don't know if it's true, but a friend who's a nurse said that she went on the other injectible (Monjaro or something like that), and after months on it, and spending $1700 on it, she only lost 4 lbs. She claims that since she didn't have a gallbladder, that it didn't work, but I don't know if that's true. At least Krystal's really trying. Right? Unlike the rest of her shitty unsupportive family. "Wah, its too hard!" People. You could all stand to lose a few pounds. Sheesh. 6 Link to comment
DropTheSoap March 7 Share March 7 I'd lost a bunch until pandemic and losing family members. Then gaining back as I was becoming one with the couch. Didn't gain back to where I started, but def gained. 2 1 Link to comment

CrazyInAlabama March 7 Share March 7 So, a rented U-Haul van. Hear that faint screaming? That's the executives at U-Haul having a melt down about their product getting publicity they never wanted or asked for. She's really trying, and I'm rooting for her. Month 1 690.8 Month 3-619.5 I'm so proud of her, and her whole family. 71 lbs down. (and the other nurse is back!) 6 Link to comment

Hellga March 7 Share March 7 She is almost at goal! 619 is not 610 but close. I thought she would be. Now she will either get encouraged and do even better - or she will think 'even though I was cheating I did OK' and will cheat more and will hardly lose anything for the next weigh-in! 6 Link to comment

ams1001 March 7 Share March 7 Wow, 71 pounds down! Not too shabby. 1 minute ago, mk828 said: Watching the poundicipants again makes me proud that I am working very hard on giving up fast food. Only gives me strength to keep going! I can tell you how I did it, but I'm not sure I recommend the method...but here goes: get some McDonald's chicken tenders that in retrospect seem like they've been sitting under the heat lamp a little too long (plus a hamburger and fries) on your way home on a Friday night, spend all day Saturday throwing up everything you ate in the prior week and a half, spend Sunday recovering from all that, then just when you think you might maybe could go for a McD's hamburger again about a year later (The Sickness was in March of 2019), have a pandemic hit so you can't (or are afraid to) go anywhere. By the time all that's over, you won't even think about it! I actually broke my no-fast-food streak in October 2022 on my way back from my 25-year college reunion/homecoming trip because Burger King was my only real option at a rest stop on the PA Turnpike and I was starving; I've since had two McD's hamburgers on my way to work (took the morning off for an appointment and needed to grab something because we still don't have a cafeteria since covid) maybe a year or so ago, but that's it. 1 1 Link to comment

I have re-joined the gym this month for the first time since COVID and I will try to eat better. Stress definitely got me in 2022 and 2023. I think Massachusetts is plain bad for my health. This state has cost me more nerves than every other place I've ever lived - all put together. 2 1 1 Link to comment
