Is anyone taking weight loss medication while doing keto?

GLP-1s, Phentermine, others, etc?

If so, how’s it going on the scare, sleep, energy level, other pros and cons?

Is anyone doing Standard Keto or any more specific Keto diets like Cyclical Ketogenic Diet (CKD), Targeted Ketogenic Diet (TKD) or other Keto strategies?

How’s it going? Results?

What does your script writing doctor, nutritionist and/or cardiologist think of Keto, and Phent + Keto?

House debate here: What is the difference between coffee con leche and a latte? -And a cappuccino as well?

Is a café con leche regular coffee pot brewed coffee with milk (is it hot, steamed, frothed or cold), and a latte is a shot or two of espresso with mostly frothed milk?

• Because regular coffee pot coffee and espresso are two very different things.

Hi everyone— I haven’t been officially diagnosed, but I’m pretty sure I have lipedema (I just don’t know the grade yet).
-Scroll to bottom for questions.

Stats (for context): 5'8", 219 lb, 50 y/o.

My sitch: For years I’ve been very self-conscious about my thighs. In the last few years leading up to menopause transition, things have gotten worse: my thighs hurt to the touch, I bruise easily, they look/feel heavier, and I can feel small “rice-sized” nodules. I also have what feels like a pocket of fat and/or fluid around the inner knee area.-I have to do something about this condition. Buying pants to fit right is an issue. The sight of thighs in a bathing suit makes me feel “ugh”.

A dermatologist dismissed it and told me my IT bands were “just tight” (she never had me stand up), which was honestly defeating—but I’ve taken my health into my own hands.

I figured out my menopause symptoms and got them under control. Tried the vibration plate while missing my 1st menopause period, and broke out in hives only on my face during hot flashes. [Vibration plate + overnight histamine dumping + menopause hot flash + my PM skincare route locking in the hot flashes with no where for the hormone fluctuations histamine to go created the hives. Figured it out. It’s all
connected. Hives are gone, and sleeping through Menopause.] I’m now focusing on lipedema + hypothyroidism with exercise and diet.
⬇️
My questions:
1 - Has anyone tried the R.A.D. diet, AIP diet, SIRTs diet, Dr. Courtney Hunt’s protocol, or any other diet/protocol not listed that helped Lipedema while also helping you maintain/build muscle? What was your experience?

2- Has anyone tried Lipera supplements?
(Also: I’m not selling them. I’m not buying from Amazon—there are too many scams/copycats. I’m looking at it only from their website.) What was your experience?

3 - Have GLP-1’s made any texture or volume improvements?

Is there a CVS online or app pick up discount code for this month?

What is it?

Thanks!
