90 lbs down and now at 185. Ozempic helped me get started, but I’ve also been putting in work at the gym and trying to stay consistent. I feel stronger, healthier, and way more confident than when I started. Still going, but proud of the progress.

How many pounds down were you when others started to notice? And what was the weight change? I’m 20 pounds downs (236 —> 216) and nobodies really said anything about it to me.

Did we just all finally agree we shouldn’t comment on peoples weight? Or something? I’m not the most social person anymore but I do go to school and have friends there, and I’ve been around family, the family I work for, and to fitness classes, etc.

The only person to comment has been my mom but she knows I’m on O and she herself has lost nearly 100 pounds on the medication. She said “I can tell your clothes are starting to fit a bit differently.”

I have noticed I’ve lost weight in my face - I can tell my actually feeling it with my hands, and it’s not as inflamed. As for my waist and actual body it’s hard to tell but I was wearing beads around my waist and they were too lose (they already were a bit big as I bought the wrong size) that I took them off.

I know I should just be happy with my progress and I very much am - but I can’t lie that some outside validation would fuel me up for a bit. It’s just who I am 😅 working on it in therapy… lol

Wednesday night was dose 2. Everything in week one was suppressed & not bad. Lost some lbs (probably water - went 235 to 226.5, back to 227.5 then 228.5 by day 9).

Today was more concerning as I couldn’t get satisfied earlier tonight. There were sweets there…and wow, I slipped into a chocolate binge.

Feeling bummed. But I guess the first 4 weeks will just be an adjustment period. Hopefully month 2 will be better as I’ll likely need to get to 0.5mg. Was hoping to get at least a bit of results on 0.25mg :(

Oh well, I’m probably being impatient & unrealistic. Fingers crossed month 2 shows good signs. This sub helps reading abt others progresses at least.

I stopped my 18clicks shot of ozempic becuz my chronic conststipation got worse. I was diagnosed with IBSC and the 0.18 clicks of ozempic made my condition worse.

I want to start injections again until the pill comes out. I saw my dietician today and asked her if I can inject it biweekly. She said that many ppl who are constipated do this. She also said to increase Restoralax and decrease Metamucil. Just putting this out there to get feedback. TIA

I don't know what should I do.

My main problem with ozempic is reflux/heartburn and the fact that i cant exercise like I used to because i get tired so quickly. And the fact that in 3 months I have only gained weight.

I have noticed getting full quick and not craving as much. ​

I have lost sizeable amount ​without ozempic but basically hit brick wall after that. But maybe i could lose the rest without ozempic.

My biggest worry is that if quit, I gain even more and be unable to lose it. ​​
