I'm on week three of the 0.25mg dosage. So I'm 16 days in and I've lost 8.8lbs. I can't wait to see what happens on week 5 when I actually increase to 0.5mg. This has been a half a pound a day on average. A for side effects, I only reacted with the first dose. Had severe, explosive diarrhea for about 2 hours and then felt nauseas for a couple hours so I layed down for a couple of hours. I've had no side effects since then. I have been having trouble projecting how much rapid insulin I need for a meal as there's many times that I just feel too full to finish eating. Therefore I end up taking too much insulin for my carb count. I am a type 2 diabetic. Before I started ozempic I was taking 120 units of toujeo and a one to one ratio of novo rapid to carb load. The day I started taking ozempic my cardiologist advised me to go down to 100 units of toujeo. What I am really pleased about is the fact that it seems to be making my body produce more insulin or causing it to better use the insulin my body produces. I wear a freestyle libre 2 flash sensor. Before if I didn't eat immediately upon waking for 2 or 3 hours the graph of my sugar levels would climb rapidly. Now the graph shows my sugar remains stable within the permitted range. Where has this medication been all my life?!?

I started semaglutide a few days ago, zero side effects and I felt improvements within an hour. I have Celiac disease. My theory is people who live with destroyed L cells are GLP1 deficient. I was going through hell for decades without this. I expect I will be on this for life as my small intestine isn’t going to go back to normal.

I’m on the 2.4 dose. I started the medication in March of last year. I know there can be some variation in glp receptors between individuals. But here’s the thing: it doesn’t seem to reduce my appetite. I don’t get side effects. BUT I have lost 20 lbs. I have more than 100 left to lose. Also I have inflammation that doctors don’t know the cause of (hsCRP = 45.8) and my inflammation has only gone up (though it was going up before taking it too). I’ve been working on weight loss to no avail since 1996 when I started weight watchers. I eat a Mediterranean diet and don’t really eat sugar or fast food or greasy stuff. I can lose weight and have before (usually doing OMAD) but it’s a horrible struggle and unsustainable. I just wish I could understand why this medication isn’t working for me when it seems to work for so many others.

Try a grain free diet and daily Thymosin alpha 1 subq. Apparently there are other gastric peptides that also have function to reduce appetite, perhaps you are deficient in one of those. You could call them for a consultation and see if you can try these other new ones coming out.

Mitochondrial dysfunction, cortisol, hormone imbalance? Look at the Viome test. Inflammation comes from the gut, Tom Bileu has a video up on this with the owner of Viome. You could be having immune reactions, are you eating any grain? Look at Cyrex Lab for testing. You need a functional medical doctor, not a regular MD. I would add a red light panel, get a soda stream machine, test for heavy metals, get on a 100% grain free diet, and gluten free diet. Take iodine, make sure you arent getting fluoride or other toxic halides like Chloring, this includes shower water. Consider that you likely have glyphosate and perchurolate poisoning. Getting healthy is a full time job.

@@MedcanLiveWell “Lost in the current hype over Ozempic and other GLP-1 agonist weight loss medicines, unfortunately, is an alarmingly consistent finding: Much of the "weight loss" resulting from GLP-1 agonists is the loss of muscle, bone mass, and other lean tissue rather than body fat (3). For example, in a 2021 trial entitled "Impact of Semaglutide on Body Composition in Adults With Overweight or Obesity" that included pre-and-post-treatment DEXA scans (DEXA is a medical imaging test used to assess body composition and bone density; it is one of the most accurate methods for identifying how much body fat a person has versus "fat-free mass" such as muscle and bone mass), 34.8% of the total weight loss experienced by participants receiving Semaglutide resulted from muscle, bone, and connective tissue (4). Similarly, in a 2020 clinical trial entitled "Effects of once-weekly semaglutide vs once-daily canagliflozin on body composition in type 2 diabetes: a substudy of the SUSTAIN 8 randomised controlled clinical trial," 40% of the seemingly impressive weight loss in the Semaglutide treatment resulted from the loss of lean tissue (5)” www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-healthy-journey/202208/how-get-the-most-weight-loss-medications?amp

@@athenacontreras okay, if people cannot be taught to controll their hunger, then why do we make an effort to help addicts break their addictions? I could be going on a tangent here but a dog can be trained to eat at certain times. Some people feed their dogs once a day, others multiple times and pick the food up, while many will just leave the food out for their dogs. Usually an animal that has been trained to expect food at a certain time will begin to salivate because they know they will be fed wouldn't the same work for humans? If obesity is purely a genetic issue that cannot be overcome with programming , then why is it a recent issue? This only became an issue because of modern convenience.
