I completely relate! After all, I’m in this boat for that very reason. My doctor put me on Ozempic to make my stomach empty more slowly so I don’t want to eat as much. It works from a behavior standpoint as well because you won’t like how you feel if your portion sizes are too big!

I eat what ever I want & that includes candy & I drink soda. I just know how much I can’t eat. Maybe it is the medicine I am on?

Jardiance was a Godsend, until my kidneys started failing. I've never had anything work that well (I was always in range, yea!) All meds have risks, most all food contain risks. With your doctor, monitor your sugar closely while you are seeing a dietician. Good luck in your journey.

I've been on Ozempic but had a bad reaction. Januvia was godsend until insurance didn't want to pay. It's so frustrating

I started mounjaro in august and it’s like a switch flipped for me. I don’t have those cravings and I’m down 20 lbs in 2 months
