Let's discuss Ozempic,Semaglutide, the side effects as well as the pros and cons that I experienced during this journey.
Full disclosure, I am not a physician and recommend that you consult a healthcare professional before taking Ozempic/Semaglutide as it is not for everyone.

I'm heading to 51. I had a hysterectomy at 48 and got up to about 150 pounds where I was previously and consistently 130-135. I focused on hormone replacement that did nothing. So, I exercised and maintained where I was at until menopause seemed to plateau. I'm now 131 pounds and attribute my weight loss getting back to normal by conducting a spiritual Fast twice a year (no food, only water and the living word to sustain me for 5 to 7 days), and I have changed my relationship with food. It is very important to change your relationship with food. We all go through relationship changes. It should be no different than a no-good girlfriend or boyfriend that you have to walk away from... apply that same analogy to food, and you likely won't need the new "crack" it is becoming. Keep your money in your pocket. And, take B12 for energy. If you have other issues, thyroid, etc. Seek a doctor!
I totally agree with changing your food habits. I also have experienced that you can do ALL of the right things and still not lose weight.. Yes there are some who are using this drug as a quick fix but there are also some who truly need it to assist with their weightloss. As with life.. there is no cookie cutter way to get to your desired outcome and everyones journey is different. Best of luck on your journey and congratulations on your weight loss!
@shalethajoe4544 Absolutely, a person can do it all, and the weight goes nowhere, where there is no other choice but to try alternative methods. Especially when it causes second and third order health problems. We all need to figure out what works for us and works in a healthy way. My children and mother eat different than me. They carry more weight than I do. We all have to reevaluate our relationship with food, not only because of possible weight gain but other health issues. I suppose at some point, our digestive tract returns to that of when we were babies. Certainly, there are foods I just cannot eat anymore. Thank you, and continued success on your weight loss journey, too.
This was such a nice video! Thanks for sharing. I am at 9 weeks 11 pounds gone!
Congratulation!
Hey girlie! Live in Houston and been off 7 month now! Congrats ❤
Hey Neighbor! so how are you doing maintaining? I've been off approaching 6 months.
I’m on 10 mg of mounjaro and and I work out a lot and walk all the time ! No side affect just constipation
That's awesome! Have you had any weightloss so far?
Thank you for sharing your story! My story is the same as yours, beautiful lady. I’m only on week 1, but concerned it works a little TOO well! I’m struggling to eat more than 600 calories, literally forcing myself because I don’t want to be vitamin deficient or set unrealistic expectations. I’ve lost 5lbs in 5 days (water, surely) but glad to see it slowing down…idk, I already decided not to up the dose if the appetite suppression is the same. I’d like to be able to wean off one day and not eat 3x as much and gain it all back in a month, lol. I agree about the special occasions, too, eating is a joy.
It also is showing me you need to have a healthy mindset & relationship with your body to take this drug, because the consistent weight loss can be addictive. I have like 40lbs to lose but gonna re-evaluate as it goes…
You bought up a great point.. you absolutely can get addicted to watching that scale go downward.. My initial goal was 135... then it moved to 130... then 125... but when I saw that 123 i was SHOCKED! and to be honest.. i loved the way my body looked at 130 and I want to get back there but I am just in fear of seeing the scale increase.. It is truly a mind thing.
Best of love love!
Good job😊
Thanks 😅
Hey loves...don't forget to drop a comment and let's have a discussion.❤
Thank you for sharing your story, what was your starting weight.. I didn't hear you mention that.. thank you
Hey. .... my starting weight was 158.... I got down to 123..... Best of luck!
Interesting @@shalethajoe4544
Age 40?!?!???? 😯 You look all of 21!!! ❤ 😌
Ahhh thanks... 44 to be exact...trust me these bones remind me daily....lol
🫢 Wowwwww you look GREAT! Keep doin what you’re doing.. just Beautiful 😊
Just subscribed 😊
Thanks for subbing! Welcome!
Wow! What a positive journey and you look great! I'm exactly the same: 157lbs and want to get to 130lbs, and my body looks very close to what your looked like in your BEFORE picture. I got on 10mg exactly two weeks ago, today I will be taking my third shot. Unfortunately, right now I feel like it's doing nothing and haven't lost anything. Very disappointing. How long did it take for you to start eating less and how many mg did you inject?
Heyyy... so I didnt start seeing results until the 2nd month... then things just took off for there. The bulk of my weight loss was in the 3rd month once I upped my dosage and got the hang of not eating as much. Please check out my other video where I talk about not losing weight on the drug as this was happening to me as well at first. Best of luck on your journey

Congratulations on maintaining! 🎉 I was wondering, did you stop semaglutide cold turkey or did you have a maintenance dose before you got off?
Soo on my last months supply I did not take them weekly. I actually only did a shot every 2 weeks.. This was my form of "tapering" off. I really did not feel the cravings come back until around month 3 of being off. I just continue to do portion control and I also take a apple cider vinegar supplements to decrease my appetite.. So far so good... Best of luck

@@shalethajoe4544 thank you!
Good video.
I'm on it but a shortage has hit. So I have 2 shots left. Started 213 now 200. Goal is 175.
Amazing.... which brand are you on? I am seeing that many of the weight loss clinics are offering the off brand (semaglutide) it seems to be in abundance.
@shalethajoe4544 ozempic I have two pens left and now my clinic is on a shortage. I will not go to the off brand clinics. I'm going to maintain
How long have you been on it?
@@peacepocket Hi... I was on it for 3 months... I have been off and maintaining for close to 5 mths now...hope this helps!
what dose were you taking during your medication weight loss? thanks!
I never went above 1.7. As long as I was seeing adequate weight loss I chose not to increase. Hope this helps!
@@shalethajoe4544 oh thank you! I am using the pen so I was trying to decide how to go up. I may just stay at 0.05 if I'm not hungry. It's probably different with the compounds? Xx Congrats! you look great:)
@@zenjen44 Yes you are correct I think it is different with the compound.. If you are losing weight and comfortable with the rate of your weight loss then it may be a good idea to stay with what is working.. I belong to a Ozempic/Semaglutide FB group and many have said when the upped the dosage their weight loss stopped.. But I know everyone's experience is different
What state are you in ? Hi from NYC !
Heyyyy! I'm in Texas...
I started 4 months ago and am up to 1mg shots and only lost 13 lbs😢 im start weight was 273 am still 260. My goal weight is 160, but 140 would be amazing but I don't see either happening which is a bummer but I'm going to be going up to 2mg shots soon so maybe it will start dropping off quickly soon. The gastro side effects are so bad for me, although I'm still learning how to eat on it. Been drinking protein drinks when I'm too sick to eat.
Hey a loss is a loss and celebrate that! Even with this drug everyones rate of loss will be different. Hang in there and best of luck
@@shalethajoe4544 thank you! I think I’m just overly anxious to lose weight lol I’m also in my 40s and know how hard it is to lose this weight. I think I’m going to take some before pictures and my progress every couple months that way I can see how far I’ve come. Btw girl you look amazing!
Thank you for sharing your weightloss journey. Did you have to go to the clinic every week for your injections or did you give yourself the shot.
Hi... no I did not have to go into the clinic. I was given a 4 week supply monthly.. the clients are given the option to go in weekly if they don't feel comfortable administering the shots... Best of luck on your journey!
You inject yourself
@@gailalston9805 Yes.. You simply insert it into the skin in your stomach. Really easy and painless.
How long have you been off and maintaining?
It has now been 4 months.. I toggle between 123-128... I have not went over 128 in the past 4 months.. Below of luck and I hope this helps
I think I will do another video on how I've been maintaining my weight..
I am 60. No Dr ever gave Semaglutide. I am 240 lbs, up from 175. Angry.
Hi.. there are a number of weightloss clinic who now offer semaglutide since it has been approved by the FDA for weight loss. Best of luck on your journey
When you stop how long does it take to get out of your system
Hi... typically 4-5 weeks.. of course this varies with each individual.. Best of luck on your journey!
Nice video. Thank you for sharing your personal journey. Feedback…. Scientific and medication information shared is not correct and it would be best to refrain from suggesting people should see a therapist if you are not a health care provider.
I am doing it the natural way and losing weight continuously. Walking is my best friend and it works. Eating for health does it too. Taking medication to lose weight is a cop out to me. Changing your body to lose quickly will catch up with you as your body ages. Most don’t tell that side of the story. There is no magic to losing weight. It just isn’t. Any type of medication for weight loss is not good for the body or one’s self esteem. Its a facade.
Hi...it's awesome that you are having success losing weight naturally.. Wishing you the best of luck on your journey
Aww truck yourself to the Big Mac as a reward you deserve it !
Funny my body just doesnt crave it.. I havent been able to eat past a regular kids cheeseburger since I've started this journey.. It's crazy how it totally can alter your cravings... :)
So update-- I finally had a big mac although I had to remove the 2nd meat and the 3rd bun. LOL
Question - why didn't the physician prescribe WeGovy - the semaglutide created specifically for "weight loss" instead of placing you and soooo many others on medication specifically created for diabetic patients?
Ozempic is for diabetic patients. I was given semaglutide which is just an off brand of Ozempi/Wegovy and it is approved by the FDA for weightloss. You will hear all of these names interchangeably because they are basically the same thing.. It's like saying tylenol vs advil.
1200 calories a day.
