My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article czcams.com/users/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
You cant take it if you have type 1.
I've been on this medication for about 9 months now and I've lost 44 lbs and my A1C went from 9.8 to 5.8 as of last week. My whole lifestyle has changed for the better!! I'm happier now than I've been in many years!!!
Isn’t like $1400 a month??
@@patsmith378 my insurance paid for it for the most part.
Whats the name of it semiglutide ?
I am happy for you
I started my first injection today I need to lose about the same for good BMI range. Hopefully I get same results since I have fatty liver disease. The trials showed about 8 months to get similar results.
I've been on ozempic for 2.5 months and I've lost 30 lbs. It's amazing. The most thing I'm most impressed with is that it's completely stopped my outrageous and uncontrollable cravings. I have cushing's syndrome caused from PTSD, and it causes the worst cravings. I literally couldn't control them. Now they're gone. It's really so freeing. Some people who have never experienced hormonal cravings say it's "about self control" and "you have to learn healthy habits". It's so frustrating to hear them judge something they know nothing about. I was always fit and active. I ate healthy, exercised, played sports, and maintained a healthy weight, then something changed. I lost my house and with that my cortisol levels doubled and my cravings became uncontrollable. Ozempic saved me. I cannot say enough good things about this amazing medication!!
Have you changed your diet?
I'm on ozempic 1.0 for around a year...no weight loss...hey...and I don't eat...didn't eat before being on ozempic. I have just been diagnosed with Cushings...adrenal functions are off...tumor on adrenal gland. Suppose to lower stress and make sure I keep my heart rate low...yeah right. My endo said the 1.0 dose can be increased...not done yet. He wants me to participate in a clinical trial drug for Cushings...kind of scared to do that.
Were you prescribed medication for your Cushings ...if you have...what is it...and is it working? I've gone from size 8-16...horrific car accident...badly injured...exercise ability...is quite difficult...stressful. On top of all that...models on thyroid...hypothyroidism...on .88 mcg of levothyroxin and .20 mcg of cytomel.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
@@hopefreeman269 were you diabetic ? I think the people that lose the most weight on Ozempic aren’t diabetic
@@thewrongshoes nope...not diabetic...
Wow that much so fast
I find it odd how a lot of ingredients in our processed foods are considered hormone disrupters and no one is studying people’s health without those foods. Because they want you to be sick and buy medicine.
Exaccctttly!! Such BS that first they create the problem and then create a drug to SELL US to fix what they caused! And we don't demand change
RIGHT AND EXACT!!!
STAY BLESSED!!
Love Sis Tan
Yes our food supply is poison in many ways with gmo's and ingredients like HFCS that our bodies likely were never meant to consume.
On another note their are volumes of stories of people having stomach paralysis, bowel obstruction and other issues from Ozempic.That is downplayed too much it seems.
Weight watcher's has teamed up with Ozempic and have changed their old talking points to allow for it to be sold to their clients as well. I'd imagine way more money in Ozempic than their old model. The stock is rising on Ozempic too. Looks like one of the next big money making schemes for mostly the ruling class.
My final thought is,...why would anyone even trust big pharma after all the issues and continuing ones linked to the recent clot shots and so many other drugs? It seems to me that they are about profit first and foremost and not much about people's health at the end of the day.
I was recently diagnosed with LADA (Type 1.5 diabetes). A clinical pharmacist prescribed me Ozempic. I also switched to a more Mediterranean type of diet. I've lost 12 lbs in just a few weeks. When you go from alot of hunger and cravings to feeling satiated most of the time, it really messes with you psychologically. I'm not even up to the full dose yet but this drug really does work.
I've lost almost 35 pounds in 2 months with very few side affects on semiglutide. It's changing my life for the "so much better"!
Any updates?
What’s the dose regimen?
20+ lbs lost since early January, an A1C improvement from 8.9 to 6.5 and no real hunger pains or overeating probs. As someone who has struggled all my life with weight and eating issues I am very optimistic about Ozempic.
Oh so this is Ozempic ? Lol sorry. Sounded similar lol
Update?
How are you doing now days?
@@David-vn2id Very happy with the overall results David. Some quick background, I was 62 and weighed 265lb when I started Ozempic some 21 mo ago and my avg A1C around 9. I am now at 207lb for more than a year, and my avg A1C abt a 7 but do note that I was taken off Ozempic in May of this year. I still struggle with my weight and eating but I use walking and common sense/potion control to maintain my weight and health. So again, happy with my results.
I’m in Australia . 60 year old obese male . Diabetic . On meds the diabetes was ranging around the 8-12 . Put on trulicity December 23 2021. I was 191.5 kg . This MORNING 8 may 2022 I’m now 163.8 kg. My weight loss is slowing averaging .5 kg a week . I had no side effects at all . No nausea no squirts . My wife is also on this med . Originally 165kg she’s now 113.5kg . No it’s fantastic stuff . Sister in law also has lost 51kg over 2years
Thank you for your work.
Thanks for the vid, Dr. Oz. Just started Ozempic for diabetes and this is a lot of great background info. Best wishes in the Primaries!
thank you for being a leader in health communication and bringing this new product to light. Where are all the other professionals doing the same? #weightloss #healthreport
Total game changer for me , (type 2) have not taken insulin in almost 2 months lost 25 lbs , have more energy . taking insulin makes you hungry , intermittent fasting and walking my glucose readings are 80-120 avg
Important topic👍
It was great to hear one of the actual researchers discuss the trial.
I've been on it for 7 weeks. Four .25mg and today was my third .05 dosage. I have been exercising and trying to eat better. It does curb the appetite and I've lost some pounds. Nothing dramatic yet. But if you are pre-diabetic, do everything you can now to make those lifestyle changes before being diagnosed and having to take meds. Exercise, hydrate and get to a healthy weight. Watch your glucose and blood sugar. They sound cute, but they can be dangerous if unchecked. Eat fruits and vegetables. Limit your sweets. Make them a treat, not a meal.
Contact Dr Igudia on his CZcams channel for diabetes cure
Your doze is low might be that's why
I've had six 0.25 and now my 1st 0.50. Taking it since 6 weeks and I lost 5kg so far. Since I take it, I'm not hungry at all and I never had any sweets. I don't even fancy sweets anymore and I can only eat half of what I had been eating before. I needn't lose a lot of weight but just want to keep my weight healthy. I'm 58 and have to watch it since childhood. As side effects, I feel nauseatic sometimes. But in my country, it's not released yet so I had to sign and the doctor never applied it himself. I guess that's his risk management. If anything goes wrong, I can't claim anything.
26lbs (12kg) in 3 months since I’ve started on ozempic for type 2 diabetes. 1mg dose.
👍👍👍
HOWS IT GOING NOW
People do not realize how hormones affect your appetite . I was put on a diabetic drug and by doing nothing I lost 11 lbs. That may not sound like much but it is for a short person who was not obese to begin with. I tried exercising and starving myself nothing worked I was hungry all the time.
That is exactly right! I have been trying to lose weight for 3 years now changing the way I eat, fasting and exercising and no success at all. I believe you. Sometimes we just need help before it gets to something worse.
Tried it for 1 month & decided to give it up as it caused right renal angle pain and inflammation as well as orchitis. These were most concerning adverse effects besides the other side effects others also experienced. It took a couple of months for the symptoms to resolve after the drug was stopped.
Just sharing my experience
Thanks for being so transparent and being honest about your experience I pray your feeling better
Good option before considering surgical options such as bariatric surgery. If side effects are tolerable then it should be considered. However it works super fast with regular cardio and weight training.
No no don't go for any surgery.. because ozempic really works for weight loose atleast 45 pounds in few months plus walk one hour and healthy but light diet.. its work amazingly
I’ve been on Ozempic for the past 6 months and have lost 72 lbs. Eight years ago I did the gastric sleeve and had gained all the weight back. The restriction that I had was the same or even better than the sleeve.
Awesome! My goal is 60lbs so this encourages me. I'm an older woman and was considering the sleeve. I've recently begun Semaglutide. Your response makes me feel like I made a good decision. Thx for sharing.
I had gastric bypass leave in 2012 and I lost a lot of weight but over the years I gained it back today my doctor just put me on ozempic to try to lose some weight hopefully at works I just read your comment and they gave me some hope ❤️
I have struggled with weight for years and it is the first time I feel I have some control back..Thankyou to the people who created this.
Novo Nordisk!
I have lost 6 pounds and my A1C has gone from 7.6 to 6.4 in two months with no lifestyle changes or exercise. I am on 7mg's, I will be adding in some exercise this month and will add some small food changes.
Can this cost other sickiness
7 mgs..... the pen does not have that amount and currently the top is 1 mg per week
Will this still support weight loss if over eating and exercise are not the issue? (Metabolic dysfunction). A1C is climbing so I am a candidate for it
I started ozempic yesterday. I’m not diabetic but after 7 years of dialysis then a kidney transplant 2 years ago I gained 100 pounds. My doctor has put me on ozempic to shed some of this weight. I really hope it works. I’ve dropped 40 on my own so far now I’m hoping this will help me lose at least another 30 to get back to my expected weight
@Christopherferrell congrats on losing 40lbs of your own I know it wasn't easy. Please keep me posted on Ozempic as well on how you're doing. Did your insurance cover it? If you don't mind me asking how much was it? I see that it cost like $800 is that true?
@@TESSALACOMBATTANTE today salad my fourth injection. I have been extremely nauseous so I haven’t exercised since starting the medicine luckily it has caused my appetite to be small and I stay full so luckily I haven’t put any weight on. I use sav on acme pharmacy and thankfully I had no copay. Medicare and Medicaid took care of it for me in full. Not even a copay !
@@ferrell4real887 This is always good news the fact that you hadn't gain any weight. However; feeling nauseous is a very annoying feeling I don't like feeling this way. Will the nauseous feeling go away at some point? Wow, Medicaid I didn't think they would cover it that's good to know. Since I just went back to work a week now hopefully 1199 well that's if the Dr's help me to get on it. Since wasn't working I currently have metro plus. I see it suppressed your appetite which is a good thing hopefully it does the same for cravings. Overall it's all good news keep it up and congrats again and thanks for the reply it's appreciated 👊🏽🙏🏽
@@TESSALACOMBATTANTE absolutely you keep me posted as well. It also made some smells make me wanna throw up like seafood.
@@ferrell4real887 I will definitely keep you posted and I hope the throwing feeling goes away. Feel better continue your journey patiently.
I would love to participate in these studies 🥰🥰🥰
Eating low carb, high fat reversed my type 2 diabetes. 3 years going strong.
Same. 3 years in April. ;)
Were you insulin dependant
And did you do a different type of keto being that you were a type ,2 Diabetic like me.i sincerely want to lose fifty pounds I'd love to know how it worked on you being a diabetic thank you. Charlotte mcgrathecharlotte046@gmail.com
@@charlottemcgrathe6267 basically if you're insulin resistant,avoid CRAP
Carbonated beverages,refined sugar, processed food,and artificial food.do KETO (low carbs or no carbs at all).More carbs,more sugar ingested,more insulin released.
Absolutely not cured. I will never go back to eating refined carbohydrates. My goal is to reduce my A1C and get it back to a normal range and keep it there without medication.
Been on Ozempic since June 14th 2022. Have 88 lbs to lose and have currently lost 40lbs. Using 1mg dose and have had no negative side effects. Quite simply put, it is impossible for you to eat like you normally would. I have seen a dramatic 50% - 60% reduction in my food consumption but I am still enjoying the food I do eat. You're just full on way less. It has been a wonder drug for me but I do fear what will happen when I hit my goal weigh and my GP takes me off it. Studies show that many gain back a considerable amount so I am trying to plan for this. You never have hunger pangs on Ozempic, or at least I haven't had to deal with them. Sometimes you have to consciously remind yourself to eat. That obviously won't be the case when I come off it.
I just Started Wegovy last night, .25 14 hours later i had a greek chicken salad from Red Olive, I could fishing that entire thing in no problem, i took maybe 5/6 bites and I was done. I forced myself two more for the chicken for the protein. WOW less then 24 hours !
I’ve been on this drug for 6 weeks now and for sure I’ve lost my appetite . However, I feel like crap. I’ve never had stomach pains like I have at the moment. I sleep nursing a pillow my tummy is that tender. I have absolute confidence in the drug however my body at the moment is “saying no”
I've also heard it makes a lot of people nauseous. Is your pain at the injection site or your entire belly?
@@gritsnwavy3059 Yes it does IF they inject into their abdomen instead of their upper thigh area.
You should talk to your doctor, as pancreatitis can be a side effect.
Talk with your doctor…it is said to cause pancreatic cancer
@@ctis86 I started this back in Nov and got moved up to the next highest dose last week but I don't see any change. I'm going to add 3000mgs of Glutathione pills to see if it makes a difference‼
Is this medication similar to xigduo xr? I was just prescribed this medication.
Yeah agree it's crazy what it does to help u ..only been on for a month.. and my insurance covered it..I stay full all the time and get feeling of be full very fast when I eat..you have to change your mindset about portions ...and I noticed drinking lots of water..
I have done Trulisity for a month. I was tired and fatigued. I told the doctor the only thing that kept me going was Sugar!!! She said i was insulin resistant. I started this and I tell you I feel like a different person. I have energy. I don't crave sugar. I feel all around better. I've lost 15 pounds so far this month. I'm very grateful
Started December 15th and by May 1st I've lost 42lbs. I was 240lbs and now I'm 198 while standing 6 feet tall. Went from being obese to looking fit. Granted I was eating healthy and exercising hard throughout the journey. FDA to approve this medicine for obesity sometime next year at a different dose. A rep told me theyre thinking about doing .6mg weekly as the dose for weight loss.
what is the name of this drug? is it Saxensa?
@@babyblue7798 ozempic
What is your diet like
@@Kay00911 well, I'm on a caloric deficit so I'm at about 1800 calories now but before I was closer to 2100. High protein, moderate carbs, low fat. I don't track my macros and I ballpark my calories. I used to weigh my food but I've stopped that. I can pretty much eyeball 6oz of chicken breast at this point. No special diet, just consistent with my eating and training.
It’s 2.4 and called wegovy
Funny I won't get covid shot but I would probably take almost anything to lose weight
The drug they are talking about currently cost about $860-898 per month without insurance. For many this would not be covered by insurance. Would you be willing to pay that much?
same here
Haha I said the same thing.. they are marketing the vaccine all wrong.. just tell women it will cause weight loss and men it will enlarge the penis and everyone would be signed up by now
@@AndThusSpake I think as time goes on not only will the price go down but insurances will cover it.. still cheaper than bariatric surgery. Most meds are expensive and not covered in the beginning
Ass backwards
Hello, why is that for those that are taking Ozempic 2ng/1.5 ml (1.34mg/mL) Prefilled pen. We can’t get refills anywhere?? Rite Aide, CVS WalGreen, Walmart,etc. what’s really going on??
My dad is on this, for several months. He's thinner than I've ever seen him. And his diabetes is more easily handled. He's very strict with his diet. But once in a while he'll have a cheat day, the day he takes it, once a week. He doesn't go over bored with it but it keeps him at a normal level. But that's the only day he'll cheat, the few times he does.
Sounds very much like what I do. Friday nights in pizza night but it's hilarious because I used to be able to finish off a 14 inch pizza to myself without a problem. Now I can only eat a 6 inch pizza. Or we buy 1 twelve inch pizza and I half it with my wife. The pizza restaurant might not be too pleased with us. Most of my meals are now at a 60% reduction across the board. 40 lbs lost in 4 months and counting, and everybody who hasn't seen me in over 4 months is shocked at how I look. Very pleasantly surprised.
Carrie. I found out 6 months ago I was type 2 diabetic. Put me on metforman horrible on stomach but it works. Now just put me on this medication. But dad with cheating day is awesome. People don’t realize unless they are diabetic how hard it is to watch your sugar. You got pack food from home always hungry horrible! Happy to hear dad is good. Just know it’s a lot of dedication and hard. I’m gonna start this shot Saturday Incase it makes me sick
Before bed is worst. Sorry for rambling
I was put on Wegovy. I got a 1 month .25m dose set. When I went to get my script from the pharmacy it was $1800 for 4 shots. Drugs like this do work, but Big Pharm will not price them for people that need them. Also, most insurances will NOT cover them. I am at 400+ lbs and need help. I just had a cardiac event related to my weight. I am addicted to food and need a drug like this to seriously curb my cravings and appetite. Alas, single income families cannot afford such a luxury.
Many drug companies offer patient assistance. Sometime you can get the drug free. Check their website.
are you in therapy for your addiction? Even group can help.
Your insurance won't cover the what go be but it will cover the Ozmepic. The Wegovey is labeled as weight loss so Insurance will not cover it . But they do cover the Ozmepic . If you have no Insurance go through a Canadian pharmacy sooooo much cheaper
Meant to say insurance wont cover Wegovy
It does not work that way. It's not going to help you if you are addicted to food. You will still eat too much. Get psychological therapy for your eating. And ask yourself do you love your if that answer is yes then love you enough to stop eating and make your life better for you. Just stop eating. Use food as fuel ans not as a comfort or friend. You are the only one who can control your eating.
@DrOz, how does this work for someone with hypothyroidism, obese 45bmi?
I was diagnosed type 2 back in 2018 and my A1c was 12.1%. On my own with diet and exercise I dropped my A1c down in the 8.5 to 7.5% range and just couldnt lower it anymore. So about 2 weeks ago I finally asked my doc if I could take Ozempic and he said sure. I have only been on it for 2 weeks but off the bat I noticed it kinda gave me a bloated acidy reflux kinda feeling and I wouldnt eat but drink lots of water. That has slowly faded out but I take tums on a daily basis it seems. Next month he is going to increase the dosage and I hope I see some weight loss. In the last 4 yrs I went from 270 down to 245 and am stuck at this weight.
i’ve been on Rybelsus for almost a year i’ve lost over 60 pounds BUT i did change my diet gave up red meat pork and pop and started working out five days a week.. i do believe the rybelsus helped a lot!! i was doing the same thing before taking the medication and was hardly losing any weight so it helped with my AC1 numbers AND helped me lose so much weight
I am also on rybellsus and having great results!
I tried Rybelsus at the highest dose and it only temporarily worked 😞 trying Ozempic as of tonight.
Dr. Oz? How can I get in touch with Dr Kushner? I want to be a part of his next study. Please help! Thank you!
I am a type 1 diabetic. Type 1 , not 2. I have been on it for 8weeks and have lost 1 kilogram per week. My insulin dose has more than halved, down to 40 units per day from over 100. This has helped with what I used to have was insulin resistance.
Dr Oz, can you check this out for SLE patients using Plaquinal & Ozempic.
Started on Ozempic in June 2021 and have lost 50lbs. Was nauseous for the first 6 weeks but now I only get nauseous about once a week, usually in the mornings around 4 days after taking the shot. Occasionally I'll throw up my lunch. My appetite has greatly decreased and I'm on Weight Watchers, and the weight is just falling off.
My Dr prescribed this for me today. I'm scared to take it because of the side effects. I've heard that injecting into your upper thigh eliminates them. A1C is 8.5 I went off WW because of HUNGER. I love WW, though. Great program.
Don't eat high carbs, sugar, fats and your symptoms will stop. You cant eat whatever you want on this med. Follow protocol.
If your boarderline diabetic will this help this also?
I have just started the Monjura shot and I have lost 20 lbs in my first month. I am never hungry. I am more conscience of what I eat. I feel amazing
Would you be able to go over how Artherosclrosis affects the body and life Spain?
Atherosclerosis is the furling up of the arteries, they become clogged up. Its like pouring fat down the drain, it solidifies and clogs the artery, which in turn can block the artery completely and is the major problem with cardiovascular problems
I just started using Ozempic this morning
I've been on it for a month now and im down 22lb a couple side effects but nothing major .
Does it still contribute to weight loss if you have diabetes.
Can you take it if your A1c is 5.5? I control mine with good diet but do not lose weight.
I want in the trail

Did you do self-pay or did your insurance cover it? I'm asking because I'm looking to get it prescribed I have an appointment with my doctor on the 24th to see if I can get a referral for a weight loss clinic so I can go through my insurance because I heard it's $1,200 if you don't have insurance and this other weight loss clinic I called offers medication but will not tell me which ones they offer until I pay $159 for the appointment I specifically asked if they carried saxenda and they said the doctor has to prescribe me what he feels is right
What’s it called
To all my type 1 diabetics out there carrying extra weight this IS SAFE for us to take. My endo prescribed it to me for some appetite control and weight loss. It's only week two but I've already dropped 2 kilos. My hunger is curbed. I am on insulin INJECTIONS not a pump so it is very hard for me to maintain tight control.
This drug is a life saver.
It comes with side effects nausea vomiting etc. I have them all but the benefits of not binge eating and feeling constantly hungry all the time is incredible.
Type 1 diabetic for 17 years.
Are these side effects on all the shots or just the first one?
@@maviemagdyrofael2542 ITS on all , at times during the side effects i seriously think to quit but i see results and keep going, im now on week 6 and im down 7 kg, i have all the side effects every week, the severity lasts me about 3 - 4 days, the tensity drops down each time now i dont get the migraines, every body though works and behaves differently

They just need to keep it as a diabetes medication or insurance companies won’t cover the cost! Saxenda is like a thousand dollar, and only maybe 1 out of 3 insurance companies will cover it because it’s marketed for weight loss only
Im on my second week of Saxenda. Im not diabetic. Im 5'1 and when i started i weighed 159.0 lbs now down 2 week to 152.3. So this second week dose went up. No side effects other than no appetite. Yay🎉🎊🎈

Thank you doctor for the professionalism with which you do your work. You listen to your client and you always put their needs first, to ensure they live another day healthily and vibrant. Cheers to you my doctor, I celebrate the way you do your job. If it was up to me I would give you the award of being the best doctor. Thank you doctor for all you Doctor Osaye for curing my type 2 diabetes..
The doctor has a wonderful smile
Can anyone tell me if this has caused any heart issues? I suffer with pvcs and pacs and terrible health anxiety
It's not a stimulate
what about liraglutide
I have been on this drug for about . I have lost 19 pounds' am 41 years old.However I do exercise also i swim maybe 4 laps and do 12 laps around a outside track. I also use both Sunna and steam room .
Is this like reybelsus? I’m on the 7 mg and it takes you’re hunger away I have to seriously ember to eat hoping it will help me loose weight it does make me nauseous so I try not to eat a lot
Rybelsus is the new pill form of Ozempic.
Rybelsus is what I was just prescribed for my Type 2 diabetes. My doctor started me at 3mg. Today was my first day.
i lost over 65 pounds on Rybelsus! i love it!! i started working out and changed my diet but mind you i did all that before Rybelsus with no results
I’m bipolar and have weight gain from hunger from my meds. I just started ozempic under doctors care. I’m-not having hunger .
First day on Ozempic at 350 t2
I just got out of the hospital from pancreatitis after taking this drug for 4 days only.
Isn't there a risk of hypoglycemia if non-diabetics take this ? Also, there's a risk of pancreatitis and increased risk of a certain type of thyroid cancer.
Has anyone gone off ozempic and stayed off it? Did you keep the weight off?
Is this very similar to Trulicity?
Omg I got prescribed it today
I’m scared but happy
It’s prescribed to me for weight loss
Wow it works
Any side affects guys
You know, I'm an Internal Medicine physician, and I practiced in South Carolina for almost a Decade. I saw a LOT of Morbid Obesity. It was a Clinic for the Poor. I saw ladies that were 400 lbs. and men who were over 500 lbs. They needed to have Bariatric Surgery (Gastric Bypass, or Gastric stapling.) When they could GET it, they would lose 1/2 to 2/3rds of their body weight in just a few years. There WAS, However, a Catch-22; They needed to lose at least 25 pounds on their own before they could get the surgery. There were other requirements; they needed to see a mental health professional, too. If they could lose that much weight unassisted, they would not have such a severe problem in the first place! Several died waiting for the surgery.
My Hope is that this drug at least gets them to the point where they can be eligible for weight loss surgery, but, also, that we can nip problems in the bud, so we don't see such severe cases.
After sleeve surgery weight is creeping back. I was prescribed ozempic. Any issues you know of for taking this med post Bariatric surgery?
You know I never understood why they had to lose a little weight before the surgery. I mean if your 500 lbs does 25 pounds really make a difference
@@denisegasparini64 good question. Lol
So what would this drug do for someone like me- A patient with Lipidema, a genetic adipose tissue disorder. I'm also never hungry. Ever. I do intermittent fasting and it's pretty much stalled my appetite to where I'm borderline anorexic.
I've been on Wegovy for 8 months( similar drug) and have lost 50lbs. Its amazing. You can still eat what u like but you eat so....much less. Example: I love thin mint cookies. I used to eat a whole sleeve, now 1 cookie is enough for the whole day. Amazing!!!
Don't eat cookies if you are need to use this med. You have to have a healthy balanced diet.
I’ve been on Ozempic for 3 months and have lost 26 pounds so far
I just got the Medication Wegovy an tonight is the second dose..wish me luck...I had no after effects.
After losing 130lbs, and about 70 more to goal, my Dr. has asked that I research both Wegovy and Saxenda as a long term med help. How are you feeling so far? I did Phentermine for my first 3 months and lost 60 on it but knew it was a short time kinda thing. Just something to help curve the cravings!
if a non diabetic that has reactive hypoglycemia takes this what would
happen?
cephailc phase insulin response
I am not diabetic nor have I had a weight problem before except extra belly fat. I am excited for anyone who has a weight problem and reaches their goals. I am concerned with the fact that they don't mention the thyroid tumors in rats and the claim it is not known if that will happen in humans. A coworker told me he was taking this and within minutes of looking up information, it was on the FDA website as well as ozempic website. FDA says your physician should be telling you about the thyroid tumors in rats but when I told him, it was news to him. Neither Dr. Oz nor this doctor mentioned it.
I took CLA (congegated linoleic acid) and it curbed my appetite amd helped me lose belly fat with exercise.
Everyone's body is different but when I hear the word pharmaceutical drug, warning bells go off.
My doctor mentioned it to me, in fact they wont prescribe to anyone with thyroid cancer in their family history
Exactly, only seeing that on the website that's why I'm scared to take it along with bladder/kidney issues and pancreas. 😪
How do you take it? Is it in pill form or injection? Or a liquid
It's an injectable
Suppository
@@ramirodelbosque7280 wow you must be 13… sad answer for a adult
