I am taking Ozempic for the first time this week not am kind of scared because I take Warfarin blood thinners due to previous clots in the lungs.

Just wrapped up my first month on semaglutide and wanted to share my experience.
I started at 10u of 0.25 mg and adjusted weekly. I’m now at 18u as of my 5th shot, heading into week 5. Going in, I was pretty anxious about side effects, especially nausea, so I took the first couple of weeks seriously. I ate clean, stayed | COMMUNITY | — | 2025-12-29 |

For reference, I’m 27 years old 5’5, started at 140 and want to get down to 125.
I’ve had a binging problem for 10 years, on and off. It was uncontrollable, to the point where I would eat absolutely anything, even if I didn’t enjoy it like canned corn straight out the can because it’s all I had left in the pantry and I wanted a dopamine hit.

Hi -Three questions and a little story before:

Hi all,
I am 27F 5'6, 160lbs (10 pounds over weight) and had questions about starting semeglatude. Based on my consultation, I would be prescribed a micro dose.

Hi everyone, I picked up a common cold last weekend and it has totally knocked me out for the week. Normally I’m just out for two to three days but it’s been extra hard to eat anything all week. I’m also feeling incredibly tired and finding so many foods unappetizing. I’m seven weeks into the shot.
Has anyone else picked up a cold or flu while on the shot | COMMUNITY | — | 2025-12-25 |

I need some advice from people who’ve actually used these meds.
I can buy Retatrutide for 9 euros per mg, but my budget only lets me run around 2.5 mg per week max.
I’m starting to wonder if that dose is even worth it. I can get semiglutide for around same price per mg

There was an aspect of finally finding a way forward with my ever spiralling weight, during perimenopause. But I don't think that was the full story.

| INDEPENDENT-REVIEW | review | Semaglutide therapeutic doses (where ist starts to work for majority of people) are 1.7mgs and 2.4 mgs.
