I started dieting several months ago and have been losing weight on my own. I had some labs done and my doctor was concerned about my A1c and my bad cholesterol. She suggested going on just 1 mg of terzepitide a week to address those issues. I don’t feel any different and have continued to be able to drop weight. I don’t know if the terzepitide is helping at that low-dose or not.
My question is: once I stop taking this 1 mg a week is my weight likely to rebound like it would at higher doses or could my 1 mg a week be considered insignificant to weight loss/gain?

I need recommendations for shapewear with a snap or otherwise easy to open gusset. I’m going to be wearing a long gown with a train to an event and need some kind of shapewear that I don’t need to pull down. It’s impossible to find anything and I can’t be the only one with this issue.

We have a seven month old Chesapeake Bay retriever. She definitely lives up to the reputation. She’s very active, energetic, opinionated, intelligent, and stubborn. We would like to get to the point where we can leave her in the house unattended for, in the beginning, a few hours at a time. Right now, she gets put in a crate when we have to leave.

I know every dog is different and no one can make an precise prediction, but just wondering for any Chesapeake owners, when might we be able to start letting this happen? Just wanting to hear others experiences.

Should I avoid using products with retinol before getting Botox? If so, how long should I refrain from using products prior to getting Botox?

I have a seven month old Chesapeake Bay Retriever. I need an indestructible dog bed, preferably one that she can’t flail around in the air like a dead animal carcass.
Any recommendations?

My NP is putting me on 1 mg of terzepitide per week. The dosage is so low because it is primarily to help improve my lipid numbers, although my A1c is fine, but she would like it a little lower.
Question: I am getting ready to travel for a week and I’m starting my first dose tomorrow. I leave on a plane trip on the eighth and will return a week later. At such a low-dose am I looking at bad side effects? I don’t know what to expect, but I need to start it and I also need to take this trip and don’t want to have diarrhea on an airplane.

Why is the wiki section about puppy blues disabled? Because I have a six month old Chesapeake Bay Retriever and I’m about to lose my mind and I need some help.

Have a friend who is not a reddit user but who is looking for any resources that can help individuals in emotionally abusive relationships and/or dealing with spouses who have narcissistic personality disorder or narcissistic behaviors. Just looking for any type of resources in the community.

I’m asking an honest question and looking for answers: are ALL men emotionally constipated? Are ALL men unable to think on a deeper level and understand the needs and emotions of their wife? Are they unable to understand the difference between accusatory dialogue like, “well i dont like it when you do such and such” versus dialogue talking about each other’s desires and helping understand your wife’s feelings and what you can do to better things in the relationship…. I’m tired of bashing my head against the wall trying to make this man understand that I just want him to sit down and listen like he cares about my feelings and can talk to me on an emotional level about us. He thinks every conversation has to be about throwing swords at each other, whereas I want a conversation about our desires and wants in our marriage and how we could be better for one another and how we can improve ourselves and how much we love the other person…
I want him to stop working at his job, stop doing projects around the house and stop watching Netflix and act like he actually cares that I’m a member of our household.
He’s like a cardboard box.
tl;dr— are ALL men unable to communicate on a deeper level and not just about whether they took the trash out or not?
