Thank you!! - Melissa 🤍
Hi, how long were you on 7.5mg
Hi! About three months. I stayed as long as the suppression and food noise was in full force. I stopped when I plateaued for a while. Are you on 7.5? Thanks for watching! - Melissa 🤍
Wow! Amazing update! All the hard work is paying off. It’s interesting how each person responds differently to each dose.
Thank you so much! I’m very fascinated with each person’s individual experience. - Melissa 🤍
kEEP GOING, DOING GREAT!
Thank you! I appreciate it! I hope you’re doing well! - Melissa 🤍
@@ChasingSunshine25 it's going 👍🏻 thanks
Thank you for your video. I am going to be starting Mounjaro soon and I am really nervous about the GI symptoms.
I started on Sunday and nothing so far. Drink plenty of water.
Hi @Vickijones9062! Congrats on starting your journey! I understand being nervous about it. I think we’ve all been there so you are not alone! You MAY have a bit of tummy challenges the first few weeks, but it shouldn’t be anything you wouldn’t have had at some point before. A bit of nausea from time to time can be annoying but just have some things on hand so you’re ready to tackle it. Nauzene from Amazon works well, your doctor may prescribe zofran but most use OTC support unless it’s really bad. I found that drinking a carbonated beverage helped mine. If you get tired, grab a vitamin D, and B12 and those should also help you. Let me know if you have questions or need someone to chat with that’s been through it. Just keep going, and you’ll rock it! Keep me posted! -Melissa 🤍
Hi @StanRd2005! I know that’s disappointing to feel like it’s not worked yet. Remember to try different injection sites. Despite what some people say, most of us on this journey DO feel suppression more or less depending on the injection site. For a while I had great suppression in my thighs, then I noticed it didn’t have an effect on me anymore. I would rotate sites and discovered the arms were working REALLY well. Now, I switch around but do feel more at the moment under the belly apron. Keep track of your injection sites each week and note if it’s effective or not. I also realize I do not have the food noises at all when it’s suppressed and am ignoring food a lot. You may notice small differences but it will add up and you’ll be pricing the subtle changes soon. Keep going! It’s worth it! -Melissa 🤍
@@ChasingSunshine25 I took the 1st mounjaro shot a few minutes go. It hurt, lol. I will definitely keep you posted. Thanks.
@ did you leave it sit out for about 15 mins before injection? Try that. Also, if you can try to pinch a part of your skin and inject in that pinched area. I hope the next one doesn’t hurt! - Melissa 🤍
I weight every Monday. I do mine on Saturday and I’m always hungry on Fridays
@@angelFollansbee it definitely is interesting when you notice it most
Keep fighting! You've got this!
@@JH-wt3vt thank you so much! It’s definitely made me stronger and learn so much in the process! -Melissa 🤍
Ever since I got under 200 I’m obsessed with weighing my self too 🫢🫢🫢I’m not gonna stop ….
I understand. It’s almost a fear for me and I think that’s really why I was doing it, was to ensure I didn’t backslide and lose my progress. Keep going girl! 💪🏻🤍
Way to go!
@@CrumpFamily-y2i Thank you so much.
Now that I started losing I can stay off the scale scale for every room one to work and I weight myself every two seconds 🫢🫢🫢
@@therealsongstress it’s so hard to keep off the scale. I was obsessed with weighing in daily for a few months. I didn’t realize how much of a mind trip it was. Now I weigh in only twice a week. Shot day, and one other day. I keep the scale in my closet. The closet stays open and I can see it, but I don’t really look at it unless my phone alert tells me it’s weight in day. I added the two weigh in dates on my calendars and held to (although it was tempting) to only weigh those two days. How long have you been on GLP-1? Is this your first real loss since you started or were you in a stall? Thanks for watching! - Melissa 🤍
What a journey you’ve had. Thank you for the insights as always!
@@CrumpFamily-y2i aw, thank you for that! I appreciate you!
California
@@therealsongstress hi! Thanks for watching! I hope the videos are helpful! - Melissa 🤍
Awesome news!!!
@@CrumpFamily-y2i thank you so much!!
You’re the best!
@@CrumpFamily-y2i thank you so much! I appreciate you! 🤍🤍🤍
That’s awesome!! Way to go!
Thank you so much!
I have inflammation also. Menopause is at a high. Gabapentin is killing my weight. lol so many things against me. I cannot weigh daily it discourages me. I didn’t take pics. I’ll start now.i have a measure tape, I’ll try. What blood work? what should I ask for? I’m home in Massachusetts. Great video.
@@angelFollansbee hi! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! For blood work, I would ask for your normal labs you get at an annual exams: CBC, CMP, Lipid panel, Urine Analysis, Thyroid function tests, Iron & Vitamin D. That should give you a really good picture of your base currently and something to compare and measure against future blood work. I have my blood work done every 6 months. You could even request it every 3 months if there is an area of concern after looking at your first set of labs.
@@angelFollansbee also I forgot to mention I have a LOT of inflammation too and also take Gabapentin. I’m in perimenopause and I firmly believe this stage and forward also effects our weight and how we lose weight.
It’s so hard to get on back on track again, between vacation and colonoscopy I’ve been playing catch up. Not gorging at all but it still took a month to get back on track with symptoms etc. I will not miss again, it is not worth it. Thanks for the video, very valuable.
I completely understand! And sometimes it’s the one thing we depend on during all the chaos. Small steps every few days of getting back on track will help you not feel overwhelmed at once. Just focus on one or two things you can work on for the next week to get back. Then add in another and so on. It helps not overwhelm you when you’ve already been overwhelmed with other things. Just keep taking care of yourself. 🩷 And thanks for watching! 🫶🏻
Yes! There is always progress to be made! I like that as a mantra! 😆 I Hope you get everything figured out with your foot. You are determined to make progress, and you will!🩷
Thank you so much. And absolutely…progress over perfection. Even if it’s a little progress every day. Thank you for watching! 🫶🏻🩷
❤❤❤
@@CrumpFamily-y2i Thank you for watching!! 🫶🏻🤍
Not from Tik Tok 😂😂! I do think its interesting all the people that have the mindset of I'm gonna hog out?! Look, you will pay for hogging out by being dreadfully sick. I'm 13 weeks in, down 19 pounds and have only moved from 2.5 up to 3.0 in this time. My starting weight is 218, now I'm in Onederland at 199-Thamk You Jesus 🙏❤️🎉. I've learned from compound Tirzepitide that I can push it if I want to, but oh how I will pay by feeling terribly stuffed and sick. IT IS NO WORTH THAT. Knowing the grim consequences has trained me not to over do it.
CONGRATULATIONS on your success and your journey this far! Thank you for sharing! I agree with you 100%. It’s hard to see and hear some still have the “go wild” and “calories don’t count on holidays” mentality. People don’t realize you shouldn’t look at it like that. What you put in your body counts and affects you. You can have a smaller portion of whatever dish, but you eat more and you will pay for it in ways you never even thought. 😂 This lifestyle isn’t about depriving. It’s about learning how to take care of your body and making smarter choices. 🤍
Only people who didn’t come from TikTok are allowed to like this comment 😂😂 j/k
lol 😂 too funny!
Congratulations on your weight loss
@@lyndeeluu thank you so much!

Hi! Thank you so much for being here! 🤍
No trouble with Mochi but I'm paying too much. I learned on the channel The Tea on GLP with Candace that Amble Health is $289/month for lower doses of Tirzepitide 2.5 & 5 ml. Higher doses are still better value at $329/month with no membership fee like Mochi Health. Mochi is $354/monthly including the membership. With Amble, that's a significant savings.
I’ve not heard of them, but I’ll definitely check them out. Mochi lowered their price to $275 for Tirzepatide and then you have the $79 monthly program fee. Every little bit of savings helps so glad to hear you’re shopping around!
@@ChasingSunshine25guess what? Mochi changed pricing, dropped it to $199/any dose!! That's phenomenal!! Also, the membership dropped to an option of $40/month or $79/month. It took longer to arrive but it's worth it. I heard of them through The Downsized channel, Christopher and Laraine Durham. Laraine has a discount code if you go to the description on their channel.
Awesome! I am so proud of you.
Thank you so much!
Bravo! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your journey! Not many are as brave as you are. <3
Thank you! It’s definitely hard to bare yourself, but I hope viewers can find something useful from my journey. ☀️
