Fuckity-fuck-fuck 🤬

Usually the appeal process is so onerous that I think they often assume that people will just give up before they even try. My insurance wasn't godawful about it, but I also found the prior authorization decision tree for my doc, so we knew what to expect. Congrats!

100% agree

Best wishes. It’s a tough time, but hopefully 2025 will work out well for you 🎆

It's a really strange feeling, but you start getting used to it and living around it. Harder is matching what's on your plate with your appetite and satiety. I'm on week 3, and it's becoming less of a learning curve, but yeah, it's strange.

Oh no 😱 Yeah, I know from experience that being hangry doesn't usually help *anything* 😬. But hey, at least it's a keeper to try again!

...but how did it turn out?

Congrats! I'm about to start week 3 myself (Zepbound/Mounjaro) and down 6kg. Hopefully starting exercise will help reinforce the good feelings!

Congrats- that's awesome! Thanks for the encouragement! A pound per week is still amazing. Definitely wouldn't be unhappy with slow and steady (and sustainable). I have 6 nutrition services referral visits for the first 4 months, so hoping that it all ties together nicely.

Just started my Zepbound journey yesterday. I've struggled for years to move the needle, so really hoping/looking forward to the future.
