For me, one change that I have been working on recently is to not try to do too much. With my EDS and other health issues, cleaning the whole house or even a whole room leaves me wiped out for days so I've been working on doing a little bit each day. So one day I might sort the mail and clean off an end table. Another day,…

Hi everyone! Last month was not the best for me, but I decided that my biggest problem was I failed to plan. This month I have a much better plan in place. I am focusing on getting more fruits, veggies, fiber, and protein in. In order to accomplish this, I have protein packed oatmeal at the office that I can make for lunch…

PW: 332.1 CW:333.0 I’m sorry for the late post. Any time I was near a computer, I forgot that I needed to post my weight for the week.

Weigh In Day: Friday PW: 333.9 CW: 332.1 I'm really pleased to see the scale moving back in the right direction after falling off the wagon for most of December and all of January. With even the small changes I've made, I can tell I feel a bit better. Yesterday, my daughter was heading to the vending machine and asked if I…

Me too, Steve. Me too, but I'm working on it. ;)

@Katmary71 These are my starting numbers for the spreadsheet: MFP USER NAME - buniphuphu YOUR CHOSEN WEIGH-IN DAY - Friday YOUR CURRENT WEIGHT - 333.9 YOUR ORIGINAL STARTING WEIGHT (highest weight ever) - 359.9

Good morning, Slims! @txcritter69 Thanks for the welcome! What a great feeling it must be to have your sinuses clearer! @vegan4lyfe2012 Thanks! I saw you had ankle surgery but are getting out of the boot. That is a huge milestone in recovery. I've had 3 surgeries on my right ankle, so I sympathize. @trooworld It's good to…

Hi Slims! It’s good to be back and to see so many familiar faces! My name is Marki, and I’m from Oklahoma. I work at a university in the assessment office, and I’m working on my dissertation to finish up a doctorate in higher education leadership.

When I was starting on Ozempic, I had the same issues. For me, eating a spoonful of peanut butter helped with the nausea. I also kept graham crackers on my nightstand because I would wake up in the middle of the night feeling dreadful, but eating half a graham cracker put something in my stomach and soothed the nausea and…

Buniphuphu SW:359.9 PW: 318 CW: 319.4 Between taking steroids and other things going on, I'm not surprised by my gain this week. I've been pushing fluids and electrolytes to try to shake off the side effects of the steroids. My breathing is also better, so I've gotten back in the pool to exercise. I hope this is just one…

Buniphuphu Weigh in Day Saturday SW: 359.9 PW: 319 CW: 318 So far, so good with the steroids. Oz is balancing out the giant hunger pangs I normally get from taking steroids. My breathing is getting better, but it's not quite back to normal.

Good morning, WNM! I've had some bronchitis so my routine is all messed up these last two weeks. Last week, my breathing wasn't good enough to go to Aqua Fitness at all. This week, I went Monday but not yesterday. My pulmonologist started me on prednisone to help my lungs open up and to hopefully keep me out of the…

For me, the key to getting past my nausea has been to eat SMALL frequent amounts. Also, in the beginning I had some really bad days. On those days, I found a spoonful of peanut butter every so often helped immensely. I think it was because it had a combination of protein/fat/carb in it, but I could be wrong about that…

I'm still in my journey. I've lost 40 pounds since December 10. I'm hypothyroid, insulin resistant, have PCOS, and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. I'm hoping to lose about 150-160 more. I still eat most foods, but I eat a lot less now, and the food noise has really shut down. I have learned that if I want to eat pizza, pepperoni…

@ljdanny I take a shot to help with my weight loss. I use Ozempic. I am needle phobic, so I wasn't sure if I could do it either, but the needle is really tiny...only about 1 cm long and really thin. Most of the time, I barely feel it. It has gotten a lot of bad press as a quick fix for people who are not willing to put in…

Buniphuphu Saturday SW: 359.9 PW: 320.1 CW: 319 Being at home is awful for my logging. I didn't keep up with it yesterday, and I missed all of today. I'm going to retroactively log today's food so I can get back on the right track.

So far, so good with recommitting to journaling. I know we're not even a week into April yet, but I'm celebrating my wins! My husband started draining the pool in the backyard yesterday to refill it with fresh, clean water for the new season. We are supposed to have record-breaking high temperatures next week, so I'm…

I agree @MommaPenguin82! The media has made everyone think that Oz is a magic cure, and now we don't have to do anything to lose weight, but I'm still working at this.

I started a reintroduction post yesterday, but I got sidetracked, and now it's gone. I'm Marki, and I live in Oklahoma. I have 3 kids, two of whom are in college, the other is out of college. I work for the university, and I'm also a doctoral student in higher education leadership, just starting on my dissertation. After…

@JCFan3 How great to hit one-derland! You'll be there to stay soon, I'm sure!

I have always done in my stomach. The thigh is fine as an injection site. If you look on page 12 of the medication guide, it shows you that thigh and back of arms are both fine. https://www.novo-pi.com/ozempic.pdf#guide I've always done the stomach because it is easy for me to do. I've seen opinions that side effects are…
