    It's important to note for anyone taking these meds (because providers don't tend to tell you this) to know that the therapeutic dose is higher than the ones they start you on. SOME people get results before the therapeutic dose and others don't lose anything until they get to a higher dose. It doesn't mean it's not working, it just needs to build up in your body. Gotta just put the idea of fast and instant out of your minds imo!

    Fei, take this advice from someone was obese for over 30 years and no diet worked before.
    Make your protein the main component of your food. I’ve noticed that your food is very high in carbs. You’re avoiding any added sugars, but you should know that ALL carbs become sugar in your body. If you want results, you need to cut back on carbs as much as you can.
    Good luck girl! 👍🏻

      I just learned from a dietician I began seeing that carbs turn into sugar. I swear it's been so confusing trying to get this "nutrition" thing down. I feel like learning a foreign language would be easier.
      I grew up in a home with a mental ill mother and a dad who wasn't present, so my brother and I learned to fend for ourselves. I became reliant on canned & frozen foods that were easy to make. It's been a b**** trying to adjust and train my brain to think about things I never had to. Being a picky eater, who's not great at finding protein I like as far as meat goes house been tough.

      @@JustJ-Me yes I know!. It’ll take you some time to adjust your food preferences to the new diet you need to be on. But it’s not that hard. Your previous struggles must have made you creative and strong. All you need now is to see recipes without carbs and try what seems to suits your palate. Like there are so many recipes for making bread out of cheese and eggs, egg whites, protein powder even chicken breast. All these are proteins you can add to your diet just by turning them into a carb free bread.
      People have figured out how to go on keto and been so creative with creating carb free recipes. Just search for keto recipes or carb free recipes and you’ll be amazed by what you’ll find.
      Good luck! ☺️👍🏻

    Its odd, but I’ve been watching Fei since I was a teenager and we both went on weight loss journeys at the same time, so it never felt like I was alone (lol that parasocial relationship ammiright), we lost a lot, then gained the weight and more… and now, although I’m not doing this through Ozempic, I’m fasting and doing OMAD and this series is comfort. I’ve lost 12kgs in 7 weeks, which is insane for me! I went from 2 hours of gym daily, to losing this much through walking, OMAD, and still able to enjoy a donut, cookie, and pasta every now and then. My relationship with counting calories and the scale has improved tremendously! That being said, there are hard times… and to anyone on the same journey, it’s a marathon, not a sprint. We got this :)

      Its better to eat in a calorie deficit than eating once a day, this could have effect on your blood pressure, cholesterol and may spike your blood sugar. Most of the time it will make you even hungrier, so I congratulate you on your weight loss, but it is not really healthy nor is it sustainable. Plus a lot of people that do this, don’t even lose weight that much. Because you’re hungry most of the time, so your body will process the food more as fat when you have the days you eat a bit more than usual, since your body needs it since you eat too little. So please don’t recommend this to others, it’s actually not that good for you!

    I know people are scared to make suggestions because we only see a fraction of your day but from what I’ve seen you’re not eating to combat your insulin resistance. I suggest upping your fiber and protein intake. Cut the carbs and fried foods. Eating rice AND potatoes in the same meal is a bit much. Get a glycemic index chart from Amazon and stick it on your wall. A lot of things you eat are high on that chart. For instance, watermelon has a high glycemic index. My suggestion is to only eat berries such as, blueberries for right now til you get your glucose under control. There’s so much more that goes into battling insulin resistance but I’m mindful that I don’t know you so I don’t want to bombard you with tips. Hope this helps and good luck!

    please if you’re not already, focus on your water intake as well! i went from 250 to 135 (almost 5 year span bc i did it very very slowly) and i’ve overcome yo-yo’s, plateaus, etc. in my experience, you need to focus on MANY aspects of your life when losing fat. your sleep, your water, your calorie intake, etc. yes counting can lead to unhealthy behaviors if you ruminate on it BUT getting an overall better expectation of what i should be eating in a day to lose weight/maintain or gain weight is what lead to me being able to stop counting and now i have an overall idea of how much i should be eating in a day (i’m autistic, i eat the same things basically everyday. i also have IBS (cannot digest alot of foods) so i follow a very strict low fodmap “diet” and have been following it for years now. yes i do eat foods i shouldn’t every so often and i’ll be in pain and bloat afterwards but i guess it was more for my happiness instead of health LOL

      I'm working with a dietician and have only had 2 sessions so far since starting Ozempic. Trying to learn everything has been very overwhelming, to the point I've been in tears bc I want to get this "right". I came from a home where my brother and I had to learn to fend for ourselves by eating canned food, frozen food, nothing really fresh or balanced. I'm also a picky eater when it comes to meat or fish/seafood, but love most veggies. I honestly hate cooking/preparing food and live alone. I told my dietician it seems easier to learn a foreign language than to try to remember that carbs also turn into sugar, what #'s of what are "okay", and there's so many different but similarly named things to watch for... 😵‍💫

      @@JustJ-Me You can work with your dietitian to find a meal pattern that works for your lifestyle and your food preferences. Since you've only had 2 sessions, there's definitely a learning curve. Luckily, there are a ton of ways to "do it right" when it comes to food. It's not just one rigid method that suits everyone. Just be aware that you're seeking a lifestyle change for lasting health benefits, which can take months if not years to troubleshoot & solidify, so be patient with yourself & move at a pace you're comfortable with. And since you're on multiple meds, I also suggest you make sure to work with your doctor & dietitian (keep them both updated) to identify which meds are causing which symptoms & how to work around them or change your dosage. Especially look out for side effects that can affect your appetite, digestion, water retention, and energy level. You can monitor yourself by keeping a simple tracker or journal.

    I dont think its right to say that any oil is good or bad for you, it heavily depends on your task.
    Cooking with olive oil and high temperatures can be dangerous and actually unhealthy for example, cuz it burns easier. Different oils do different things, and saying one oil is good for you while others arent is also a dangerous part of diet culture. Always consult a specialist if u can.

    I am generally curious so I have to ask: I had gastritis and I became prone to it throughout my university life (actually some people in my major have it). The symptoms are pretty similar to those on Ozempic (because it's not acute, so no vomiting). Me and my other friends who had it(from my friend group alone three people got it) have lost weight throughout it. You lose weight because you lose your appetite, get nauseous, experience pain after eating, etc. But when it gets better most people naturally gain the weight back... So doesn't that mean you pretty much have to take these medications for a very long time (maybe even years) to completely change your lifestyle and get a routine and isn't the risk extremely high to gain the weight back after you don't take it anymore?

I became so afraid of eating anything bc of the pain that would almost immediately follow. I was genuinely afraid I'd develop an eating disorder. I had lost a ton of weight in a short amount of time (which was great bc psych meds made me gain a massive amount of weight), but at the same time I couldn't celebrate bc I knew it was because I was so sick and unhealthy. I still wanted to lose another 10 lbs in order to get back to my old, average weight. As I began to get better & felt good enough to eat normally but nothing wild, I did actually begin to gain weight back like crazy- even worse than before. I also badly broke & dislocated my ankle, which didn't help.
      I was started on Ozempic and the first time I ate pasta (something I haven't eaten in a long time, but was treated to) a day after my first injection, I got the most intense pains that reminded me of the ischemic colitis days. Thankfully, it just makes me feel "gross" and like a cramping pain that I can't quite describe. I just took my 3rd week injection. By week 2, food began tasting awful, which I can't decide is a good or bad thing. I've experienced kind of a similar effect when I was on Topamax. I don't really feel hungry, but with this I can't decide if it's bc nothing sounds or tastes good, it's "yucky" feeling I have, or something else. 🤔
      I found your comment interesting, though. I would hope that with my efforts to work on better understanding food nutrition, calorie deficits, and other ish I never really considered, that it'll help implement a more natural overall lifestyle change and make it easier to be more mobile and get back to being the very active person I used to be. It's given me hope and helped me find motivation that I've been struggling to find thanks to my essentially lifelong depression.
      I think you do have a good point, though.

    I've been on semaglutide since last July and I'm down 92 lbs. To avoid the pain you feel when you've eaten a little too much, you'll need to slow down, take smaller bites, and chew until that food is liquefied. It really helps you pickup on the fullness signal before take the bite that sends you into pain. Solid proteins are the hardest to get down, so chewing like crazy is key. Also, listen to your body before you titrate up to avoid really bad nausea at higher doses. They say you can titrate up to the next dose monthly, but you may not need to. I stayed at 1.0 mg for like three months and lost very well before moving up. I just started the 2.4 mg pen a month ago. Don't compare journeys, just remain present in yours, and enjoy life. The weight will come off, so don't stress.😊

    • @JustJ-Me
      @JustJ-Me Před 3 měsíci

      Hmmm... Every doctor is different. Some dietician/weight management centers may have it as an option. Both my OBGYN and the dietician/weight loss center I go to brought up various alternatives when I listed my concerns, which had to do with wanting to be healthy, my fear of becoming diabetic after so much weight gain, the vicious cycle of the weight making mobility more difficult as well as adding to my already chronic back pain and pain in my feet after an injury, how being so self-conscious increases the severity of my depression, and so on. Once I let them know what my concerns were, and discovered through getting labs done that I had high cholesterol and insulin resistance the professionals were the ones rattling off medications that might be helpful. I can't take phentermine bc I already have issues with tachycardia. Some doctors may not suggest it or even want to put it in your head bc it can be expensive. I initially gave up on the idea until a 2nd visit with the OBGYN, when he said we could run it through my insurance for the heck of it and see what they'd cover, if anything. We were shocked that they immediately approved it, and I'm going to guess it's bc of the issues listed, but more importantly, the blood work that showed high cholesterol and insulin resistance.
      I don't know if this will help you at all. I've also noticed that if you ask your doctor straight up if you can try something anymore, they're more hesitant/resistant (or at least in my case). Just come prepared with your concerns and ask if you can be checked for insulin resistance, high cholesterol, or anything that could cause increased weight or difficulty losing it. I also have hypothyroidism, which can lead to weight gain for example.
      Good luck, and just remember the medication isn't a miracle cure and requires a lifestyle change as well. 😊
      *Also, through my insurance it ended up being affordable enough that I can maintain it as long as they'll hopefully be able to cover it. That's something to keep in mind. It's not worth starting if you can't see it through.
      Also, a legitimate dietician/ weight management clinic might be helpful if you're approved or not.

    I think you need to cut down half of your bread/rice, overall carb intake. Also watermelon is all sugar, that's not gonna help much either. Also stop exercising too much, loose the weight first and then hit the gym. And there is DNA, maybe thats the size your body is programmed to be and that's fine too.

    Please read about insulin/cortisol correlation. It helped me so much!
    GLP meds originally were created to help with insulin regulation (aka prevent blood sugar spikes). And, in short, the less sweet things (sugar, stevia, glucose, etc) you consume, the less inflammation you will have. And the faster you will loose the weight
    Also, please make sure you are getting enough fiver in your diet and at least 100g of protein per day 🙏

      You could always have a doctor that agrees to approve/prescribe it to run it through your insurance. If it's too much, you'll have your answer and won't have to pick it up. Doesn't hurt to try- that's what my OBGYN did, not thinking I'd be approved or that it would be affordable enough.
