Do you ever wonder what’s gonna happen when you stop taking the medication? Will your hunger come back will you go back to old habits? That’s the only problem I have with this is that once it’s off you don’t get hunger suppression. Basically you have to be on this for the rest of your life perhaps

I have been using various GLP-1 for 20 years. I also lost 35-40 lbs initially but eventually normal hunger returned slowly over the years, so it pays to be vigilant. I've had to add insulin, EMPAGLIFLOZIN, Metformin. Cardiovascular exercise helps immensely to keep the weight off. However the insulin causes weight GAIN. Flexible strategy is required.

I am only on my second week of Ozempic. My blood sugars took a drastic dive post 24hrs after my first injection. I am getting consistent readings between 5 and 6.5. Previously my readings were anything from 6.5 to 15 Hba1c 7.5. I am also on insulin which I really didn't think was working and my endo just kept increasing the dose every 3 months. Now I have had to drop my insulin way down!!! I just can't believe how well it has worked for me in such a short period of time. I must admit my diet has improved. No cravings at all and only able to eat really small amounts. The fullness feeling is amazing. And only time I feel sick is when I have that extra too many mouthfuls. So I have recognised when to stop eating. Weight loss is a bonus... but glucose control is my main reason for using Oz. Lost 2.9kg 1st week and 2kg 2nd week. I also have liver cirrhosis so really hoping I can reverse that at least to some extent. 🤞 . Thank you for your time in sharing this video. 😊

This is very informative. I think US doctors are not prescribing correctly as there was not any mention of the 4 weeks at .25 and no mention of the 5 weeks for it to work in the system my physician started me on the 1.25 dose and after 4 weeks I had a pancreatitus attack. I stopped it, watched some videos about it and asked if I could get the pen with the .25 and .5 dose. I only did the .25 for 2 weeks then .5 for 2 and now 1.0 but I am considering going down to .5 and see if after 4 or 5 weeks that will be sufficient. It is just very disappointing to know that this is a very successful treatment and would be even more so if prescribed correctly. Maybe it is just my doctor. Thank you for this video and the information.

I have just started Ozempic, it’s been 3 weeks now. The first week I had really bad nausea but hearing you explain everything, I’ve realised that it was just the sense of over eating fullness. I’ve had type 2 diabetes for over 10 years now. I got diagnosed when I was about 19. The issue is that, no amount of doctors, diabetes specialists, endocrinologists have figured out if it’s type 2 diabetes or type 1. I don’t have family history of diabetes but my brother has type 1 diabetes. The only 2 medications that have worked for me so far to keep my sugar levels under control are insulin both short acting and long acting and trulicity, with insulin I gain a lot of weight. I also just wanted to ask is there a chance that I could have type 1 diabetes? If you could please tell me what sort of tests I should get done to rule this out. I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

I’ve been taking this for 4 weeks at .25. It’s very important to note that I’m taking it for weight loss only. My endocrinologist prescribed it. The first couple of weeks were hard as I was very nauseated. For me, I’ve noticed that anything even a bit spicy will make me sick to my stomach for half the day. Even spaghetti sauce. Peanut butter is another hard food. I eat a very bland diet right now and if I start to feel nauseated but not hungry, I’ll eat like 10-15 animal crackers. Just plain ones. Seems to settle the stomach some. And a little Sprite can help. But the nausea does get better. At least, by week four it has for me. I had to hang in there for the first 2-3 weeks. Week four has been surprisingly better. This is just my experience.♥️

We live in New Orleans. The doctor who originally diagnosed Ric years ago (40!) is an endocrinologist. He partnered with Ric in keeping him, so far with good A1C #s...and hubby has had no neuropathy or problems. However his numbers are not as good as they were, say..two years ago. There can be many reasons of course. But he was hesitant when Ozempic first was suggested (a year or so ago) because of 'sticking him with a needle.' The Doctors now remind him that the benefits of this particular injection method can far outweigh the 'scaries'...so it's straight ahead for us. (BTW I got elected to do his injection)...

Script will be 1 mgm? for I next time but Im happy to maybe stay on .5 as now Im just getting over side effects. I just makes you feel full all the time so when you eat you make sure it contains everything you need, eg protien vitamins etc. You cerainly can't eat heavy meals.

Thank you for share your knowledge, doc! I am obese, type 2 diabetic, my blood levels are all under control, but I am in a weightloss journey. I've been facing hard time with some binge eating episodes not scheduled in my meal plan. So, I received the suggestion to try Ozempic, with the main goal to keep focus on my diet and decrease or even avoid the binge eating episodes. My question is: is Ozempic also designed to be a kickstart tool and, if I decide to get rid of it, I can do well OR in your experience, is this the kind of med people need to use it for eternity?

Both are possible...if you use it to lose weight you will need less diabetes medications. Some people are able to then either get off the medication or lower the dose to a maintaince level quite successfully. It really is affected by the approach you take so good luck

Okay so was taking ozempuc for 8 mos and was getting stomach pain and bloating.....on April. 30, I had to be hospitalized qith pancreatitis due to the ozempic, it was a very painful diagnosis, was in the hospital for a week, on morphine and zofran through an IV because I could not have anything by mouth to let my pancreas heal. 3 days nothing by mouth 4th day and 5th day liquids and 6th and 7th day solids, was tough due to still being bloated and still having some pain. Pay close attention to major side effects that can happen. Its not worth it. I know everyone is different, but just thought I would put it out there and help someone else who had stomach pain and doesn't know what it is. Was taking it for diabetes not weight loss.

@@sidzy79 yes you may be right. However, I was told to expect to be able to drop up to 10% of my weight prior to taking Ozempic so beginning at around 80 kg could expect around 8 kg loss. the first month was at 0.25 mg & the second was 0.5 mg so did not expect to see results as my body became used to the drug. I also had a period of time when I would normally have gained several kilos so instead of gaining I lost. But I seem to have hit another wall & must weigh up the negative side effects of Ozampic for me on its continued use. It has not reduced my desire to eat but it has affected portion size. so i must try harder to reduce my intake no magic here then.

I am indigenous and my doctor thinks that my Type 2 Diabetes is more hereditary than anything. I started Ozempic at the beginning of March. After chatting with others who have used the same medication I seem to have not only more side effects but far more severe side effects. I was directed to start with .25 for 4 weeks and then .5 for 4 weeks and finally 1mg dose. I am still feeling a fair number of side effects and they are quite intrusive. Will they ever resolve? I have lost 40lbs at this point and while that is pretty impressive I have days where I am incapacitated by my side effects. My biggest fear is if I now stop the Ozempic am I going to gain back all of the weight if I am switched over to insulin?

You will most definitely gain it back if you are on the standard American diet. You need to switch to a low carbohydrate diet in order to maintain the results. If your diabetic, sugar/carbs are the devil and you should stay away from it at all costs. If you stay under 50 g of carbs per day you probably will not gain any weight. You might be able to slide with a hundred assuming you're super active.

I didn't lose but about 10 lb in 10 months with trulicity. However after I had been taking it for about a year and a half I became very very weak I had no idea it was the trulicity that was causing it. But the same thing had happened to my brother and he told me to stop taking it. As soon as I stopped taking it it took about 4 weeks and I was back to normal. Then I started taking those Ozempic. I've lost 45 lb in 9 months and sometimes I feel weak but not usually. I am often a little nauseated and if I eat too much I will throw up. Also the taste of food is different and I don't desire food the way I used to.

I take my insulin before every meal. And take a long acting insulin at bedtime. Metformin twice a day. My blood glucose average is a steady 116. After I eat goes up to 150. Havnt went over 200 since starting ozempic. My a1c has always been decent 5.7 to 6.4. Been type 2 that I know of since June 2020

I'm definitely feeling the appetite suppression and eating much less. I exercise regularly. But the scale isn't moving. Might it start to work at higher doses? Or is this unlikely to facilitate weight loss if I haven't responded to the medication as yet? Thanks.

I thought you could not experience hypoglycemia on Ozempic because it is not insulin. Now I see in the comments that IT IS possible. For now I am on Metformin, Glipizide and Invokana. My Dr. said to discontinue the Glipizide, but I forgot to ask her about the Invokana. Now I am more afraid than ever to start :(
