Hi there again everyone,
So I began on Ozempic for diabetes (and hopeful of side benefit of weight loss), with the intent once I got through the initial couple months at low dosage that I’d start thinking of quitting drinking.
Well my two weeks sober so far was right about when I began on the 1mg dose weekly. I have since lost about 10lbs to date and my blood sugar numbers are well in check… one of the other funny little benefits that I’ve heard about after beginning this medication is the drop in desire for things like drinking, drugs, sweets, greasy food…and so far that seems to be holding true for me.
Now again, that’s not why I began on Ozempic, it was because I kept forgetting to take my multiple times per day medication and was hopeful for some slow healthy weight loss. The booze thing was a nice little added surprise.
My question, does anyone else have any experience on this topic that they’d wish to share? I just am trying to gobble up all the insights I can on all these topics.
Best and thanks
