I was put on Ozempic for almost 7 months. I'm fairly certain it's what led to me being hospitalized with stomach and chest pain. I had most of the symptoms listed. It helped slightly with my blood sugars but I stopped taking it in June. I still have some issues and for me I regret taking it. It works for some though.

Congrats on having successfully lost so much to begin and still keeping most of it off even now after losing your husband. We tend to beat ourselves up and focus on things we regret but it's much more important to build off your many successes.

You're in a newer phase of life. Mix it up and reinvent yourself. It's a good time to do it and you can incorporate things that promote healthy weight levels.

I did WW online during the pandemic when all centers were closed. I ended up doing daily meetings and sometimes twice a day. It was very informative and inspiring. So much has changed and the people were truly making a difference in their weight and in their life. I would not want to go to the weekly onsite meetings again.

Thank you very much!!!

Paul~thank you, for the interesting article. I know several people utilizing these medications ~ most needing to use appropriately 50 pounds. All are being closely by their physicians. On the hand, I know 2 bodybuilders who are getting Ozempic who~knows~where...need to lose MAYBE 5~10 pounds...and they are having tummy issues....hmmm
