I'm on my first week ever on GLP-1's (tirzepetide) and your channel has been hugely helpful for me. Minimal side effects (if any) thankfully, which I am very grateful for! I've always been good about eating mostly healthy and making it to the gym. Where I've struggled is snacking in between meals and over-eating for dinner or sticking to healthy meals at night after I get off work. I've found this takes the guess work out of it and helps me stick to my planned meals and a healthy diet. This week I've been amazed at how I no longer have the desire to snack in between meals. I love it!! It's helped me stay consistent. That being said, I know I have a long road ahead. Thanks for your awesome videos! 🌩

I’m sooooo close to my goal and so appreciate you keeping us all informed.and motivated! This community is so supportive and uplifting. Taking some me time today while it rains…..again ⚡️ ❤

⚡️ Yup! Riding my bike on the trainer while watching again today! 🚴 Thanks for the encouragement, honesty, and great information, as always. Yes! We are worth the hard work! 💪🏻 😘

Love this video because of your openness and honesty. I’m so glad I found you on KZread. I switched to join Fridays because of you today, had my virtual appointment and was impressed with their thorough review. Thank you.

⚡️ enjoy the inspiration. It had really helped me to stay positive and keep trucking on. Thank you ❤

I am waiting for my approval now. Thank you for all your tips.

🌩 Thank you for this video! Very reassuring!

Today, and for the last two and a half weeks post op, I'm really trying to make healthy food choices while meeting my 120gms of daily protein goal. Being home without the ability to do anything more than be a couch potato has been a real challenge! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Lighting bolt. You are the best. Upping my walking goal this week. Going to the doctor. Going to start going to PT to work on my health in a new way. Evaluating if I need a LOA to really focus for a min. Thank you my friend.

⚡️⚡️⚡️ catching up on all of your videos. Today is my way of making progress, along with body movement for the weekend. Thanks for another great video.

I had my joinFridays appointment this morning. The doc decided to order compound from a compounding pharmacy and name brand MJ from my local pharmacy. I had barely finished the appointment when I got the notification from my local pharmacy that it was ready for pick up. Mind blown. Maybe because he increased my dose to 12.5 mg. I don’t really know why. Just happy to have it

I am on the Tread Mill right now watching you 😉. Moved up my speed and added another half mile. 💝⚡️⚡️⚡️

🌩Little behind watching. Love the info.

⚡️ love your podcasts, very inspiring ❤

⚡️ hi Countess, Thank you for the video, I will be concentrating on getting to bed at 11:30 every night this week

⛈Your energy is amazing.

We opened our in ground pool 2 weeks. It's finally warm enough here to swim. I love swimming for exercise. I'm so glad I can get back to it!

⚡️Listening to your encouragement is so helpful!! Thank you for the prayers as well!

I am so glad that you spoke on this a lot of people have been saying GLP-1 don’t work because some people don’t believe in change. I call it evolving into a better version of myself I’m far from perfect but my kids make this mission sooooooo worth it! Eating better as a family exercising as a family. GLP-1 is a tool this tool saved my life. I am on the compound it expensive for me no to put some elbow grease in lol. I have 8 kids my oldest is 20 and my youngest just turned 3 I work from home and run a business from home my schedule is constantly busy and coaching soccer now going into my 5 years daughter cheer team as assistant coach lol. I need my tool I’m soooo glad you said something awesome channel ❤❤❤❤❤

⚡️Hello there. I'm Andrea. Pretty new to the channel. I've been on compounded Sema and am switching to compounded Tirzepatide. I am an info junkie and appreciate the info you give. I have not been on the protein wagon with sema. I have however done HCG before and I was hitting g 100 plus grams daily then. It is a struggle and very time consuming. I'm taking this time before my Tirz arrives to get started on that habit. What makes it hardest for me is lack of appetite! Thank you for your efforts! I will pray for you. God Bless.

Truths and Myths this information is so important!! Thank you for always hitting the info we need. FYI you should not need a referral for a screening mammo gram. Call again please so very important. We care about you too!!❤

Im grateful for this journey and for all the things you share. I have learned so much from your experience, strength and hope. 2. This is going to take work. It sounds like you’ve had a breakthrough. The type that is having you make some really positive lifestyle changes. Thank you for being so open with us. You are absolutely right.

⚡️I am so thankful. I just found out I can pick up 3 boxes of my Mj 12.5 tomorrow. I've been back on Ozempic for 3 months because of the shortage. I haven't gained but maintained. My sugar has stayed down. ❤❤❤

⚡️ Looking amazing, Elizabeth! I had nausea on 2.5 MG Mounjaro for the first 2 weeks. I've had only a little fatigue on my 1st 5mg dose. How long do people stay on 5mg, and what dose do people lose the most weight? I'm only losing about 1 lbs per week & don't want the loose skin so ok with slow weight loss! Trying not to get discouraged. Trying to continue walks with my doggo...a Newf named Lilly!

💡💡💡💡 Thank you for praying! we will be praying for you as well🙏🏽

⚡️back home after a concert in DC so back to my “routine” of walking! Question about the protein shakes you enjoy- do they mix well if you just shake them in a bottle of water? I am traveling to Europe soon and was thinking of bringing them with me. Thanks!

@CountessofShopping

Ай бұрын

You totally can mix them with water in a bottle (have done when I travel). Lots of ppl do that! I'm boujee so I usually mix with ice and sometimes fruit/sometimes not when I'm at home. (Sometimes ppl mix with almond milk too but I don't).

⚡️⚡️⚡️…love when you say “ let me clutch my pearls”. The most important word is “ Tool”. We have been given a tool to use. With this tool you have to do the work. Just like when I had bypass 21 years ago it was not an easy way out. It was a tool that I had to use and work hard on my protein and exercise to not gain it all back. Now I use Mounjaro for my blood sugar. Perfect example that even as a bypass patient who cannot tolerate a high amount of sugar, my A1C was still on the rise. Hoping in June when I test my a1c again for the first time after starting this will prove I was hormone deficient. I’ll keep you posted. ❤

⚡️ always need prayers! Love you! Blessings!❤

Today is my 4th day walking, 2 miles . I am working on my protein intake. I've learned that this shot isn't an easy way out. You really do need to put in the work. My weightloss has been around 2/3 lbs per week, in my mind I thought that I would be loosing 5lbs a week 🤪 wrong!!! And I'm ok with not, I'm relearning healthy choices. I'm right where I am supposed to be right now ❤ ⚡️

⚡️⚡️great video Elizabeth!! I think we all have been relearning to focus and to improve what goes in our beautiful souls 😊.I'm focusing in getting my protein and also avoiding sweets.

Thats a great loss 2lbs a week! I only lose around 1 to 2lb on average a week sometimes I don't lose any I've been on 5mg Mounjaro 3 weeks after 4 weeks on 2.5mg

⛈️🌩️⚡️I am going to have an egg instead of half a bagel for breakfast. 🍳 🥯. I know I’m still eating too many not so protein foods. I think stubbornly that if I’m going to eat anything that it’s going to be something i love and have denied myself for so long…. But all the people agree we still need high protein on this lifestyle. Thanks Queen!!

⚡️I'm going to get back on track with tracking, increase my protein and walk more.

⚡️⚡️ last week I gained weight so I had to refocus on the things that matter, I’m getting healthy and it’s not a race !! Slow and steady !!!

⚡ I’m so tired 😴 I’m taking my meds. Finally got ok from my insurance for other 2 meds until this time next year. Doctor and nurse and I have work on this for 2 days.

⚡️ so I didn’t ride today but I did run. I am doing the streaking challenge for June - just means you walk or run 1 mile min everyday in June

I applied for the facebook group a week ago but still have not been approved :( I'm so anxious to learn from you all!

⚡️Shortage with all mg doses of Mounjaro/Zepbound ? I have heard mixed responses across the country, like shortage with higher doses versus say 2.5 mg, 5 mg or 7.5 mg.

🌩 Purchased bike with adjustable arm & leg resistance bands

⚡️Day one for me. I just started my first Zepbound shot today. My insurance plan won’t cover me, so I had to use the savings card which still cost me $550 for a month supply!!!! I’m only a few hours in and very nervous about side effects. I also keep seeing all these ads for compounded meds and I honestly don’t know who to trust, thus my decision to spend $550! I have about 40-50lbs to lose. My bmi is 27 but I have high cholesterol, still my insurance plan rejects weight loss meds. I admit I feel shame for spending this amount of money and hope it’s all worth it.

⚡️ I am working to eating a well rounded meal. It has been a challenge to eat during the day when I am at work.

32 pound loss in 12 weeks !! I am 67 yr old male, Began at 270....now at 238 ! Started with 4 weeks of Zepbound 2.5, then 4 weeks of 5mg, then 4 of 7.5 (just took 1st dose of 10mg) Little nausea at the beginning...but taking a Tums would help. Weight loss was amazing ! Biggest downside is the CONSTIPATION ! Try to take Citrocel 2 to 3 times a day....helps a little. Dulcolax helps, but I don't want to take every day....Also Fleet enema helps. I guess it is a grin & bear it situation. Some days I feel extremely uncomfortable due to the Constipation...but watching the scale helps. I lose about 2-3 pounds a week. My goal is around 225....I'm 6'2, big frame....so if I level off at 225....I should be good. Good luck y'all.

⚡️. It is beautiful out today, will be hitting the pavement after work! Chicken and salad will be for dinner-cannot do any seafood/fish due to an allergy of a family member (I will eat it at a restaurant). Have a fabulous day!

🌩I totally had that same thing between doses. On 5 mg I had slight nausea at around 14 hours after injection. Then when I went up to 7.5 mg that went away, but fatigue kicks in at about 2 hours. It's getting better, but now I'm going to switch to a couple hours before bedtime if it's going to make me fall asleep :)

Mammogram and bone density Both done this month

Eli Lilly is building a new production facility in Indiana for these medications. I’m pleased it’s made in the U.S.A. 🇺🇸 May 2024 “Eli Lilly will spend more than $5 billion to expand an Indiana manufacturing site and eventually make more doses of its popular weight-loss and diabetes treatments, Zepbound and Mounjaro.”
