I’m in control of my choices, educate myself of my government failure in nutrition in so much crap in our foods killed my gut health, it’s obvious over time my gut,pancreas on brain doesn’t create glp1 hormone signals. I’m proud in losing weight I’m healthier and Ive tried 18 fasting for a huge amount of months, no loss. I’m in training on Zepbound and it’s improved my microscopic colitis, sleep apnea, brain fog, no more joint pain. ❤

I just did the viome test for gut health on my last video - week 27! I will tell you I 100% agree it's in the food. I really think our food has something about 50% of people cannot process contributing to our obese % in the US IM FINALLY able to watch my kids and husband eat ice cream or cake or whatever and not even be jealous but genuinely think "I hope they are enjoying that" and not even want a bite. Even the smell bothers me now. I cut sugar completely for years! and even so if I saw someone having it i would get mad or think gosh I bet that tastes nice...I wish I could try it. Now I don't think that at all. So even cutting sugar completely doesn't stop the thoughts

my kids were watching the barbie movie this past weekend and I giggled at the long speech given to snap the barbies out of being all about Ken. I feel like everyone is turning from the body positivity movements and calling it dumb and being supportive of obesity. I hear ppl completely bashing GLP1s (just all this week in things I watch). And this will be within 1 interview. So... it's not supported to be obese but it's also not supported to be on meds to aid in it? it's just annoying and 1 Dr kept saying his prescription is for people to just go work out more 😂 I used to work out (before my autoimmune diagnosis) every single day after work. And it got me about 20 lbs lost and that was it. Then once I stopped doing it every single day - it all came back. I was still working out 3 days. Didn't matter, it all came back anyway. To me it is like people think Everyone's body works exactly the same. So therefore if they aren't overweight other people should not be either.

People are “judgey” and concerned when someone takes these peptides, yet they can careless if you’re on a HBP or high cholesterol med daily for the rest of your life. It’s really a lack of understanding and education re: these peptides. They don’t realize that by taking these can get you off the other meds that just mask the side effects of obesity. Which can be deadly (ie heart attack, stroke)

I tried contrave and only lasted two days because I couldn’t handle the nausea. I’m on Zepbound now and have had zero to minimal nausea. I know they’re different meds, but I just wanted to mention that. Before Zepbound I was on phentermine and Topiramate, and I was successful in weight loss (lost 27 lbs) but hit a plateau. I did not want to increase to a higher dosage, so I requested to start something new…hence, Zepbound. 😊

Qsymia is made up of phentermine and topomax, but my insurance didn’t cover it and it’s expensive, so my Dr prescribed it separately so that it was affordable. If Zepbound is too much trouble to continue to attain due to the shortages, I may request to go back to P and T, and hopefully it’ll work again after a break and with my diet changes and exercise I’ve added.

So, now i'm glad I didn't tell anyone because I can't get it and will now have to stay fat until Lilly gets their act together.

I too felt like I would be on 7.5 mg right now and kinda hang there if working. I was supposed to have moved up to that and then no one could find it. I will say the WW Clinic offers to make calls for me, but I'm typeA personality and want to do things myself to make sure all bases are covered and I know it got done. But I do see lots of people finding it through their care team with WW Clinic. I'm not sure who your insurance provider is... BUT Caremark told me that they could help me find it if I need them to as well. Bc they can see member charges coming in and what the location is. You may want to try calling your PBM and ask them to help you locate it. I'm kinda surprised they have not pushed these for weightloss (not diabetic side) over to specialty mail order only. I feel like the compounds are also overpriced. *from pharmacies making them with FDA API approved ingredients* Personally I think that in a shortage FDA should require the pricing to match lowest price available. i.e. everyone would pay $25 regardless I feel like the compounds are a huge racket of platforms/providers/pharmacies trying to make as much money as they can off people

@KetosisMom3 ай бұрын
It depends on which service/platform. A lot of the ones I looked up does not share which pharmacy they fill from. And also they rotate so it may be from somewhere different each time. The last one I reviewed, No. That was via amble. They did not communicate where it was going to be coming from it just showed up. With emerge Yes, you can request which one. Bc I discussed with them how I found the b vitamin additives in 2 of the 3 they prescribe too, so I would only be able to order from the 1 without any additives. That is probably one of my biggest issues with a lot of the platforms - they won't state where your compound will 100% be coming from before you enroll and pay them. So with emerge they have no platform or clinical fees etc. which was another reason I felt people would like that option.

This was asked for by multiple audience members after I showed one I received weeks ago from a platform that never even checked anything about me and it just showed up at my door. I was showing how easy it is for ppl to obtain these however NOT know anything about what it is they are actually getting. The platform never told me where it was coming from and to this day it still shows "at the pharmacy". After I looked up inspections, license, import API supplier 411, and patient reviews. No I never used what they sent me and I never will. The past few videos have been about looking up and researching what you ARE getting. so you know what you're putting in your body. So I'm not sure why showing ppl how to look things up, and providing research FOR THEM to review would be hypocritical. I also found a platform with no additional fees bc ppl did not like me saying I would likely get from Olympia who charges close to $1k. I pay $25 for name brand.

And then my mom told me oh gosh no she's been telling ppl all along she wasn't on ANYTHING. I myself knew if I didn't just come out of the gate and show ppl that follow me for keto stuff that hey I've tried it all and none of it worked so now I'm going to try this... that I would have a LOT of backlash too. But I don't really get why. No one cares what meds I'm on so I can have BM, or what I'm taking for my autoimmune LOL but they outrage over weight injections that literally help people's bodies process food and sugar like it should. the lady I showed 1st on the special went off for days about oprah and WW sending a msg that people who are bigger should be on these instead of just accepting who they are. I think I look at it more clinically. Where I feel people who NEED to lose weight bc they are setting themselves up for disease, heart attacks, stroke... they NEED these drugs to help their body function properly. Is the backlash for people who don't really "need it"? no. it's just in general.
