i included a quote from budward from another thread so instead of replying to it and it being buried in a general weight loss thread i thought i would start a new thread for comments/reviews/thoughts on ozempic
thanks

Like you, I became overweight, mostly through not working out and drinking too much alcohol. The pandemic really helped me pack on the pounds. Pills stopped working about 8 years ago and had stopped my Androgel regime. Big mistake, but my supplier was in the Caribbean and he stopped selling.
Fast forward to September of 23 and started on Ozempic. I stopped drinking but didnt change anything else. I lost 35lb in 3 months.
I am still losing weight and have been able to get into some old Robert Graham shirts that were to small for me. Now they hang lose.
Now I am finding out more and more benefits of being on Ozempic, much lower stroke rates, less heart disease, fights against Alzheimers and other things. I love the stuff.
Also started back on Androgel at the same time I started the O.
I have now been on Ozempic since September 23 and I have now lost 75lb. I am going to lose another 10lb and then stabilize. Articles are now saying that micro-dosing Ozempic actually speeds up the weight loss cycle so will be starting that on my next pen. Will be nice to cut the expense in half as the Ozempic, Androgel and daily cialis are costing 600 a month. I have already ti-rated the Androgel to last two months and will cut out the cialis until I come into some money.
I just read a negative post about O here and I have to say being 75lb lighter starting on Trimix and having a gorgeous wife who looks like the hottest porn star really does help with my "new" life. I am healthier than ever and my BP is on low side of normal.
