17 November 2023, Friday INJECTION DAY YouTube and Rumble Vlog End of Week 2. Beginning Week 3 on Mounjaro 2.5mg for diabetes and weight loss.
Blood sugar – 150
AVERAGE blood sugar this week = 146.28
Weight: 183.6
Last week’s weight: 185 lbs
Gain/loss: -1.4 lbs
Much better sleep this week. Waking up, on average, twice a night. Big improvement of 3-4 times a night.
Was hoping that my blood sugar would be below 120 by now. Something to discuss with the Doctor. Do NOT want to be prescribed Metformin. Been on that. Not pleasant.
Mood is much improved. Irritability over the small stuff is almost non-existent. Feeling less stress in situations that used to cause me stress. Better sleep?
No headaches this week.
Fairly regular BMs this week. Small…..but probably due to much smaller portions.
Hunger has been much less this week.
Burps are still there. Less frequent and for sure less smelly. Probably set a personal record for a burp this week. Loud and long!
No queasy feeling waking up this week.
All in all, side-effects seem to be less and less severe.
