Thank you for your TH-cam channel. Just got my Zepbound 2.5 Rx filled yesterday. Excited to start it , your tips, myths, videos are all very informative. Thank you!
Thank you I just started my Zepbound today and literally took it while you were talking because I was scared it would hurt and I needed to be distracted😅 it didn’t hurt very much just a slight poke I was so nervous I held it down longer then I needed to lol😂.. for my first injection I took it in my left thigh so I will definitely log my process! Thank you again
Thank you!! I am just starting Zepbound and YOU are the only person to go i o the important detail regarding everything but I really was not understanding the unlock part..Thank you again. I've had the meds for two months however was not ready for nausea..do finally taking this important and very necessary step in improving my life and health. This is it...surgery. keto and carnivore worked to a certain point but still need to lose 60lbs...
Took my 3rd week of 5.0 down 16 LBS. after the beginning 2.5 and no side effects on 5.5. Titrating up to 7.5 and plan to stay on that for a while as I am having a healthy weight loss journey. My goal is 40 LBS. Almost 1/2 way to my fighting weight :). Only problem forward is my telehealth won't prescribe compounding so now I face having to switch yet again. I use Circle Medical and they have been really good but with no end in site to the shortage, this has become a job in itself. Thanks for all you do Liz!!! Have a great holiday weekend!! Peter
Cheering you on brotha! You are right! This has become a job in itself...Join Fridays prescribes both brand names and compounds (which makes it easier to shift). Use code: QUEEN if you decide to switch. Have a great holiday too!
Im starting my Zepbound journey at the beginning of next year since my new insurance will cover the drug. Never knew how expensive it could be but im glad to have a $30/copay but im keeping my journey to just my mom and I, everyone else will know nothing lol
I got my first round but now I’m afraid to use it for fear often side effects. Especially the nausea. I work nightshift and already experience nausea from lack of sleep.
my wife did it for me but im concerned because we both heard two clicks right back to back, there was no delay, how do i know if it went well? i put it on my stomach i feel no side effects.
My doctor had to order me 5 mg of Mounjaro today. I was on 7.5 mg. I can not find any pharmacy that has the 7.5 mg, 10 mg or 12.5 mg in my area and express scripts does not have any of these doses either. I think I will be ok with the 5 mg for a while.
Totally love it! But the body cream you recommend doesn’t have retinol in it!!!! That’s what’s going to induce collagen growth and wrinkle repair. I’d recommend the Body Retinol my Necessaire.
Thank you, good messages as always! I wonder if they will come out with a higher does? For me….10, 12.5 and 15 provide the same levels of side effects and hunger suppression. I wonder if anything higher than 15 would make much difference….though I assume they are testing! 😊
Anybody question if the compound injected successfully? I’ve had instances where a can literally feel the needle and the compound going in and other times where I feel literally nothing. Normal?
OK I love your Video's I have question I call my pharmacy Walgreens but there telling me that my Zepbound 2.5 or any of the Zepbound are out of stock tell the end of April or the beginning of May and the pharmacy was telling me that they will let the doctor know and to see if i should start Ozempic should I change or should I what I new to Zepbound and I did my first month in February 2024 and my last shot was March 2024 any information would help Thank you so much
my doctor said that Zepbound/Mounjaro are more effective than ozempic and so far 2 weeks in im at 171 from 189. it could be just jumpstarting but as the weight loss plateaus you need to consistently up the dose. hope that helps you!
Monday is my next injection my doctor kept me on 5 milligrams for another month but I think I should rotate my injections spot. I'm thinking about trying my thigh, but I am actually terrified. LOL! I work out a lot now, and I just don't want to have some sort of reaction in my leg. I'm aware of all the other side effects. But for some reason, I'm terrified that it's going to do something to my leg. I'm probably just over exaggerating anybody use their thigh.? And if you use your thigh, are you okay working out the same day as your shot?
Did you switch to ZEPBOUND vs a compound due to the shortage? Will be taking my second does of 15mg MJ on Sunday -- going to do it in the back of my arm :) 😎
Elizabeth, I LOVE you and your channel! Please help though, I can't get into your FB group. I was in on my daughter's FB. Now I have my own. Amy Elizabeth. Please tell me what to do to get in again. I've completed the process 3 or 4 times. I've been trying to get in for over a week. Thank you!
I'm wondering why you only made it to 2 before you got the second click. 🤔 It seemed like a continuous video clip during that time. Serious question. I'm not being snarky. ❤
@@CountessofShopping that's why I was confused because I thought you said you count to 10 when you do your shot. Or did I misunderstand? It just seemed fast. 🙂
Hi! For brand name Zepbound/Mounjaro it's one of the 3 (stomach )on the purple diagram insert. If you are doing compound, follow compound pharmacy directions ❤️

How did it go?
Thank you so much! I’m starting my journey on Zepbound 2.5 so this video is helping me.
This is so helpful. I am on 10mg now of mounjaro and have only lost like 6 pounds in 4 months. Im also going to start changing my injection spot
Cheering you on 🙌
Did it work?
Thank you. I'm starting my Zepbound journey and about to take my very 1st injection.
Hey! I’m starting my first injection today. How did everything workout for you on the first one?
I love this! Such a good video. So many questions in the group about injection site and rotation. Glad you made this content!

Still on 2.5 since 3/29/24. Since it is working, I will continue on it. Thank you for the inspiration you give all of us ❤7️⃣

Thank you for this! Just got it today! Ill be starting this tomorrow!
How is it going? I’m waiting on my delivery today. I’m so nervous 😅
I’m trying to do this on my own, I don’t want to tell my husband. Just want to have my own journey.
😮
Same,,don’t want to hear any negativity 😊
@@elvisapupovic6642 Absolutely! He’s a sour grape about everything and I don’t want to hear it.
Then don't. I'm sure there's things he doesn't share with you either!
@ probably.
THANK YOU for clear easy instructions. I was on another site and they were trying to sell me stuff in between steps. You are the best!
Thanks for sharing your journey and your experiences I really appreciate it! You’re awesome!!
Thanks!
So incredibly kind, thank you!
Looks like you switched to zepbound. Can you tell any difference or is it easier to get? Thanks for the great video!!
I do the back of my arm by myself. Is there a reason why I shouldn’t? Love your videos they’ve been very helpful
I'm taking the magnesium you recommended. I didn't realize they have sleep medicine as well. Just ordered. Thank you so much for the discount!
Yes! The sleep medication is incredible. Were you able to use code? I've been testing sleep stuff and I'm blown away. It's incredible!
@@CountessofShoppingyes I used your discount code "Queen" and it was a substantial discount. Woo hoo. 😁
Good job very detailed. Take my first one tomorrow.
This information was so very helpful
I went from 264.6 to 217.5 in 2 months
Woozers!
❤ thank you for this video.
So today is Thursday and I’m taking my first shot do I need to do it every Thursday at the same time or dose time not matter ?
Im starting my Zepbound journey at the beginning of next year since my new insurance will cover the drug. Never knew how expensive it could be but im glad to have a $30/copay but im keeping my journey to just my mom and I, everyone else will know nothing lol

It's world wide no one has any Zepbound, no pharmacys any advice 😢
I had to switch my prescription from CVS to Costco. I just picked my shots today.
I found it today
If your insurance uses Optum Rx go on the website and you might be able to get it delivered through their pharmacy
Very helpful for someone about to begin the journey. How do I get your checklist?
my wife did it for me but im concerned because we both heard two clicks right back to back, there was no delay, how do i know if it went well? i put it on my stomach i feel no side effects.
It’s OK if there’s no delay. It can be back to back.
My doctor had to order me 5 mg of Mounjaro today. I was on 7.5 mg. I can not find any pharmacy that has the 7.5 mg, 10 mg or 12.5 mg in my area and express scripts does not have any of these doses either. I think I will be ok with the 5 mg for a while.
You are so right I got the first major sickness doing in the back ofy arm.
Totally love it! But the body cream you recommend doesn’t have retinol in it!!!! That’s what’s going to induce collagen growth and wrinkle repair. I’d recommend the Body Retinol my Necessaire.
Thank you, good messages as always! I wonder if they will come out with a higher does? For me….10, 12.5 and 15 provide the same levels of side effects and hunger suppression. I wonder if anything higher than 15 would make much difference….though I assume they are testing! 😊
How do you do your upper arm yourself?
Off topic, but Elizabeth, I NEED your glasses 👓 like I NEED Tirzepatide!!! 💉 What brand?! 🤩😎
You are too sweet! Tiffanys but several years old 🙌
Can we take the shots sitting down?
Personally I sit down and have also stood up :-)
Yes… it definitely gives me the crazy fatigue with my Crohn’s disease💪🥰
Anybody question if the compound injected successfully? I’ve had instances where a can literally feel the needle and the compound going in and other times where I feel literally nothing. Normal?
OK I love your Video's I have question I call my pharmacy Walgreens but there telling me that my Zepbound 2.5 or any of the Zepbound are out of stock tell the end of April or the beginning of May and the pharmacy was telling me that they will let the doctor know and to see if i should start Ozempic should I change or should I what I new to Zepbound and I did my first month in February 2024 and my last shot was March 2024 any information would help Thank you so much
How much did you lose in a month?
my doctor said that Zepbound/Mounjaro are more effective than ozempic and so far 2 weeks in im at 171 from 189. it could be just jumpstarting but as the weight loss plateaus you need to consistently up the dose. hope that helps you!
Great video as always! Just curious…Does the shot hurt?
no it does not i just did it today it’s literally 3 seconds
Monday is my next injection my doctor kept me on 5 milligrams for another month but I think I should rotate my injections spot. I'm thinking about trying my thigh, but I am actually terrified. LOL! I work out a lot now, and I just don't want to have some sort of reaction in my leg. I'm aware of all the other side effects. But for some reason, I'm terrified that it's going to do something to my leg. I'm probably just over exaggerating anybody use their thigh.? And if you use your thigh, are you okay working out the same day as your shot?
So you saying you are taking 2 different weight loss injections?
Mounjaro and Zepbound are the same thing, different FDA approvals. Both have same doses, formularies and made by Eli Lilly.
I know i order my two weeks in advance i am hoping irs available soon.
Did you switch to ZEPBOUND vs a compound due to the shortage? Will be taking my second does of 15mg MJ on Sunday -- going to do it in the back of my arm :) 😎
Tomorrow's video will explain more but not yet. I will be tho
All i know is you look good 😊😍
Elizabeth, I LOVE you and your channel! Please help though, I can't get into your FB group. I was in on my daughter's FB. Now I have my own. Amy Elizabeth. Please tell me what to do to get in again. I've completed the process 3 or 4 times. I've been trying to get in for over a week. Thank you!
Amy!!! I know why - your account looks like a spammers account. Tonight when I get back on my laptop, I'll immediately let you in. ❤️❤️❤️
thank you
Thanks! I was definitely looking for a visual, but your video was ohk
😊
❤😊
You look soooo small! Congratulations 🎉
I'm wondering why you only made it to 2 before you got the second click. 🤔
It seemed like a continuous video clip during that time. Serious question. I'm not being snarky. ❤
I didn't edit length for that part. That was the time. I did edit sound so folks could hear it but nothing with length. It was 2-3 seconds.
@@CountessofShopping that's why I was confused because I thought you said you count to 10 when you do your shot. Or did I misunderstand? It just seemed fast. 🙂
@@jenniferlenberger4736 Counting to ten is more of a mental thing. After the 2nd click the needle has retracted.
@@RawContent oh. Thanks. Sorry. 😊
@@jenniferlenberger4736 No worries. It's the new world that we are all learning and adjusting too. ☺
❤
I listen to you during my walks too for motivation and education
Could you not just stay at 2.5 and go slowly.
Not a fan of these Zepbound pens at all. Have already had two bad pens in the past 3 mos. Poor design compared to the Wegovy pen.
I was told not near the belly button

Dramatical
Fantastical
