[QUOTE="Living-by-the-beach, post: 2490675, member: 128654"] [USER=100904]@Pipp[/USER] I'm on my 7th week (= 7th injection). I'm down 8lbs, from 226.8lbs. Nothing amazing but steady weight loss. I started with 0.25mg/week for two weeks then 0.385mg /week for two weeks and now three weeks at 0.5mg. I'm not in a rush to up my dose. The side effects at times are rough. Yet with my recent T2DM re-diagnosis (A1c at 6.5) I just want to fix what's wrong with me. I've watched a couple of videos lately from Youtube. This is a general talk about GLP-1 angonists / Trulicity / Ozempic /Wegovy etc [MEDIA=youtube]uUSw3kr202g[/MEDIA] What was interesting in the above video was the mention of poor sleep for folks who are overweight. So I think the doctor was referencing disturbed sleep makes you hungry during the following day so you're over eating. This next video came up with 3 points The type of food The size of food The time of food. [MEDIA=youtube]Wb3eiM_s6CE[/MEDIA] 3 minutes into the second video Dr Boz starts to explain timing food. What I've changed in the last week or so is having my food in the morning and a late lunch by 1-2pm and then off out for 3 mile walk. I find with the Ozempic (AKA Semaglutide) that I don't need to eat past lunch time and just have a couple cups of green tea in the evening.
