CONGRATS… you motivated me to start exercising again. And yesterday, I weighed myself and lost 3 pounds in 7 days. Thank you for the motivation, and I will continue to cheer you on as well. ⭐️😊🎉
I start on 5 (Zepbound) tomorrow. Excited. Was on Mounjaro last year but had to stop. Started Zepbound a while ago at 2.5 but had to stop so restarting tomorrow. Just discovered your channel and you are motivating me. Good luck in your journey!
Hello! Thanks for sharing your journey. I'm a fellow Minnesotan! Listening to your experience has been really helpful as I am preparing myself to take the plunge. I'm wondering if I may ask you a few questions? I'll begin by saying that I am also Whole Food Plant Based on and off for about 2 years now. I'm happy to hear that eating this way seems to be helpful. Do you still drink coffee and do you find that it agrees with you? Which coffee creamer do you use, if still drinking coffee? I really haven't gotten into fermented foods too much, anything quick and easy that you would suggest starting with? Congrats on your success and your skin looks amazing!! Thank you!
Hi Shelly!! I'm so glad you found me. I'm so excited for you to start your journey. Your words are so sweet and kind -- thank you!! I do still drink coffee(I wait to drink my coffee until at least 2 hours after waking at which point I break my fast as I do love plant creamer in my coffee). I will say I do notice it slightly upsets my tummy the first few days after my shot day(nothing unbearable though -- just some slight discomfort/upset tummy as I don't usually eat anything with my coffee). We use the Country Crock Plant Cream(SO FREAKING GOOD -- tastes EXACTLY like whipping cream and works exactly like it too in baking/cooking). We've been able to find it at many grocery stores here in MN(Coborns/Hy-Vee/Rademachers for sure -- likely others!). For fermented foods, I usually drink my water kefir(video coming soon -- SOOOO easy and tasty!) or you can also do sauerkraut, kimchi, miso, kombucha. And you don't have to eat a ton of them -- 8 oz of the kombucha or water kefir is 1 serving, or a small scoop of kimchi or sauerkraut. Work your way up starting with 1 serving a day and gradually add another serving until you get to 3 a day. SO GOOD FOR YOUR GUT(not just for those of us on GLP1s).
Thanks so much for responding back to me. I really appreciate it! I’m very relieved that I won’t need to give up my coffee. 😊 That’s great advice on the fermented foods! I can’t wait to see your video on the water kefir. Thanks again for taking the time to get back to me. Wishing you continued success, and feeling great!😊
We are weight loss twins! I have a teenager too so girl! Phew! I started Zepbound on Dec 27th I think you started around that time too. I have lost 15 lbs. The difference: you are doing great with your workouts! I am listening, yea we are all different BUT I could stand to workout more. LOL! Keep up the good work, I'm following.
Incremental changes!!! I definitely struggled to get myself into this new routine of mine -- but I'm telling you, just two weeks of FORCING yourself to get in at least 30 min of Zone 2 cardio(walking is PERFECT!) 5 days a week will change everything. I promise!!
Hi Sarah! I hope you are well!! Been looking for you!!
Hi Jennifer!!! New video uploading today!!! Thanks for keeping tabs on me. 🤩
