4th week in Semaglutide
Hi. 4th week on semaglutide. No major side effects- mostly tired. Lost a few pounds. I have over 100 pounds to lose. Not following a strict diet or I think I will fail. I am treating this like a life style change not a diet. Smaller meals, fewer snacks and increased exercise. Less carbs more quality protein. I am not as…

Tirzepatide Compound
I started 2.5mg tirzepatide compound on May 28. At that time, I weighed 209lbs. This morning, I weighed 195lbs. 14 lbs weight loss in 2 weeks! I think it’s so much because I’ve cut out pepsi (I’d drink 3-4 a day), increased my water intake and cut down on my sodium. I’m eating around 1400-1500 calories a day and light…

I'm in a few FB groups, but they all contradict each other. I'm looking for help knowing what I need for macros, and what are the best foods. How many calories (or…

Started taking compound Tirzepatide on 5/3/24 ~ 0.125 mil
5/3/24 started compound Tirzepatide at 0.125 mil. I move up to 5 mil on 5/31/24. I am trying 16 hours fasting with 8 hours of eating as well. I noticed the meds make me get up to go pee a lot. I try to quit drinking large quantities of water after 7 pm. High fat definitely makes me have uncomfortable consequences. I didn't…

Starting Zepbound this week
Hi - I am Merlise! I have been on MFP for 5 years, and after years of ups and downs with weight reached my goal weight in March 2020 with a year+ of exercise (cardio and weight lifting) and counting calories and macros (literally worked my but off). Then Covid hit and could not maintain. Gradually calorie intake crept up…

strugging to eat enough
Hi all- I'm new to Zepbound, only on day 4 of my first 2.5 injection. And my word, it's working. No interest in snacking, can only eat very small portions. After (many) years of yo-yo dieting, this is the first time I can say that I'm struggling to eat enough food. I've used MFP for years off and on while trying to lose…

I have been on Low Carb diet for the past year and a half and looking forward to being able to eat healthy foods that I have denied myself for so long like fruit and lentils. I have tried to stick to 50g carbs /day for the past year and a…
