Hello Kiesha can you please tell me the process to get it..I want to do it,my issue is money...Is the price out of pocket affordable??? Because without insurance, I was told 1500$ per box...I walked away..Honestly I can't pay NONE OF THAT..I can only afford a couple hundred at BEST...Can you please advise me ,so I can atleast know if I'll ever be in position to do it...until then I'm keep working at it...thank you for your time

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

@@sequillarochelle4044 hi there! I completely understand! That’s why I went this route. Check out my last video called “starting glp1- Start here”! I also have other videos on my channel that go over more specifics on getting started with Fridays, but the video above is the best place to start 💕

[@KimberlyV69]

I lost 10 my first week then nothing second week. Mid week 3 right now.

[@karenmbbaxter]

A friend at my gym said she was using this and depending on which country you live in and what your health insurance covers there is so many factors BUT what she did tell me is she always had a insatiable appetite so even though she is paying a lot for her medication she is also saving a lot because she has no desire to go to The McDonalds drive-thru on the way home from work.......She said these factors need to be taken into consideration when people often freak-out at the initial cost of this drug.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

That is 100% true! I will probably make a video about this because I have been so shocked with how much I have been saving on not ordering out any and everything like I had been! A game changer for sure

[@YolandaJohnson-p4b]

When you work out and gain weight, you’re actually just gaining muscle. 🙌🏻♥️ Been on this for 5 days as of today, and lost over 7lbs. This is amazing! I really only want to lose about 10-15 more but I’m also taking a B12 with lipo shot on the same day. I can tell from my activity on my watch that I am so much more active! Congratulations! You’re doing awesome! 👏🏻👏🏻💯💥

3months in. Im on mounjaro compound 5mg. Love it!!! The food noise being gone is the best thing. ❤

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

That’s awesome! So happy for you 👏🏾👏🏾

[@Jesses_Nail_Art]

I'm 10 days in and have list 7lbs! Similar story to yours, I was off the wagon and eating terribly before I started Mounjaro. My blood sugars were all over the place and my A1C started to creep up. The day after the first shot my fasting blood sugar was in the 80s and I'm no longer getting huge swings after eating. Very little side effects for me.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

That is so amazing!! Congratulations! The weight loss is obviously so important but the effects on blood sugar and over all health are really the biggest factor 🙌🏾

[@ifyoubelieveyoucanachieve5511]

Welcome to the journey! You’re doing great and I’m looking forward to your videos. Wanted to give you some info that I wish I had when I started. The half-life of this medication, which means when half of the medication is no longer active or available, is 5 days. So, if you are taking 2.5 mg, then on day 5 you have about 1.25mg of medication still available in your system. On day 7, when you take a second shot, you will have approximately 1mg of medication still available. So, now you have 1mg + new shot of 2.5mg = 3.5mg. Another 5 days later, you will have half of that, or 1.75mg. When it comes time for next shot you have about 1.5mg. So, 1.5mg + 2.5mg, you will have 4mg. The effect continues to be accumulative. By day 56, which is the end of the second month, after you take your 2.5mg shot, you will have 5.5mg of active medication. This is why it takes 30 days to clear medication from your system and why the effects of the medication linger for a long time after you stop. My math is a little off, because I rounded up, but hopefully you understand my point. This is why the side-effects may intensify, even if your dosage doesn’t increase.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you for the encouragement! And wow I have never heard anyone explain it like this! Thanks for the breakdown, this makes complete sense 🫶🏾

[@katejoyce8561]

I started my journey a week ago. Been searching for blogs like this then I found yours and your journey has the most relatable to my experience except that the first 3 days after my first shot I had diarrhea. The worst diarrhea Ive ever had , I felt that it over corrected my body. Well they said that the side effect is constipation, so day 1 of my journey I started eating prunes and put fiber powder on my drinks just to avoid that constipation then diarrhea happened for 3 days which I dont know if its related to the fibers I ate , but you are right on day 5 it started to feel normal there’s a little of food noise but controllable maybe because the med is starting to wear off your body.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Aww I’m glad the Algorithm brought me your way! Congrats on your journey so far 🎉 that all sounds normal because of what you said you were taking so hopefully it has regulated itself now. And yes the meds will wear off the closer you get to my next injection. Keep me posted on your journey!

Thanks for your video. Very helpful. I also appreciate your transparency and vulnerability. I just started Zepbound this week. I literally can relate to the food noise. Before taking this shot, I was having extreme cravings and loud food noise. The first two days after the shot, I literally had no desire or cravings for food. I felt a little hungry, but I have been able to make better choices. I also noticed a surge in energy. Not sure if that is due to the medication or not.

I've started taking wegovy on May 11, my weight was at 228, it's now may 18 and I weigh 224 now. Before taking this medication I was going to the gym and I felt good but after taking this medication I feel like it makes me not want to do anything.i don't feel the urge to go to the gym but I still push to go. I've skipped a few days due to stomach issues and nausea. Coffee has given me nausea, so I don't drink that. I am going to be taking my next shot today. I did notice my hunger did come back yesterday because I was hungry.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Why do you feel like you don’t want to do anything? Do you think it’s the medication? 4lbs is great so far! Most people don’t loose anything within the first month. And it’s normal to start to have the food noises progress back when it’s closer to your next injection date so I think you are fine with that!

[@1188clean]

​@keepingupwithkeisha I have no idea, it just feelsl like there is a block after taking the medication. I am pushing to go to the gym though, don't really want to go back to being 255. I was at 255 and lowered my weight by myself to 228 before I took this medication. With the food noises I been eating bad but I been eating pretty good before that, making my own food. We'll see what happens I just took my 2nd dose last night. So far I feel good, just guilty that I been eating not so good. Thanks for your time and good luck on your journey

[@elenarose3102]

Yes, tiredness AND depression/lethargy on this medication is very common. I was reading that lot of 'Suicide ideation' happens on this drug, according to studies in the UK

I understand that! I will say the lethargy does feeling does get better as you go. And it’s normal for your hunger cues to come back as you get closer to your next shot date because the medicine is wearing off at that point. I have to get myself back in the gym ! I do walk a lot though. Good luck on your journey! 💕

My injection day was Thursday I talk to the doctor to change he said 72 hours so now it’s Wednesday because I have side effects for 2 days going into the weekend so the appetite suppressant is potent. Monday I start to feel a slight appetite increase which is good we need to eat lol I’m not trying to starve. I work out Tuesday through sunday. Monday I rest can’t find 2 days of rest because I coach my daughters soccer team so I join them in practice. I take in a lot of protein and electrolytes that’s extremely important. I am insulin resistant so I had to change my lifestyle and my approach to food. I have become very sensitive I never communicate with my husband I’m now starting to talk about my feelings and working out issues. I’m 5-2” 39yrs starting weight 201lbs BMI 34.

I may have spoken too soon, as of right now I’m feeling no hunger or cravings and I made me a protein smoothie that I usually have and I couldn’t drink all of it. And usually I drink it pretty fast but it took me forever to drink the little that I did drink. Saving the rest for later. And the things that I usually would randomly and mindlessly eat do not sound appetizing at all as of right now. 😆

@@xxYanexx omg Yaay that’s a great sign!! Keep paying attention to your bodies cues and keep me posted!

[@antonellocherubini913]

Trying leaving the US for a few months and go to some country where people are slim. You might achieve the same result without the glp1 stuff

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Well I don’t know anyone who can just uproot their entire life and family to move to another country for the sake of weight loss. But for those who can great for them !

[@Vargas20113]

When you get a chance can you do a video of what you eat on a a daily basis or at least in a regular day? Thank you! 😊 Congratulations by the way!!! 😊😊😊

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Hey! I’ll be uploading this likely tomorrow 😊 I recorded this early on in the journey but I’ll talk more about it when I post my 1 month update. And thank you! 🙏🏾❤️

[@marqishaburton575]

That was my problem after I had VSG surgery weighting in everyday

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Yea I need to stop getting on the scale everyday 🥴🥴

[@tiasway]

Working out and gaining weight is okay you're gaining muscle muscle weighs more than fat

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

That was me. I lost ten pounds on 2.5 mg

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

Now I am on 5mg

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Yessss congratulations!! Do you know if and when you’ll move up to 5mg ?

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

@@keepingupwithkeisha I moved up to 5mg last Saturday. I have two more weeks after this week then I will be on 7.5mg

[@2929mimi]

Just ordered my first box and so excited.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Yaay congrats! Keep me posted

[@sandyb5394]

Congratulations…..May I ask your height?

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you!! I’m 5’7

[@valentinakren8816]

Can you please tell us how much you paid for it and if your insurance paid for it

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

I’ll do a video about the company i purchased thought and cost soon! I’m paying all together $279 a month right now for the dose I’m on

[@aminatambaye5316]

Are u on the 2.5mg, 5 mg or higher

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Currently on 2.5mg and I’m 6 weeks in. I’m doing another update this week

[@ShawntaKIA305]

New subbie ❤

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you love!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾

[@PatriceButler49]

congratulations :)

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you so much 😀

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

My goal is to move up every four weeks until I find my fit.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Ok gotcha! So far I’m still on 2.5. I think I’m going to finish this second month on it and then move up to 5mg

[@Stephy09sNewChannel]

If you dont care to answer, did you experience weight loss in your chest? I'm thinking about trying Trizepatide, and am desperate to lose a few bra sizes lol I don’t want to go through a reduction so I'm hoping weight loss will help it.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Hmm that is such a good question. I haven’t noticed a big difference in my chest so far. I have lost weight in my back so that has changed my bra fits but not too much cup difference

[@iammichelle9977]

In my first week.

[@vibezmissi]

Constipation I noticed today it's my first week, second day.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Try Kiala Greens! They are linked in my Amazon storefront

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

I take it in my stomach

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

I take mines on Friday. I force myself to eat. But by Thursday I start feeling hungry

[@HOLYGIRL-s2n]

That because it’s only in your system for only five days

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

That makes sense!

[@CharlesJohnson-w9l]

Water weight you probably lost. Now fun starts until u out hit a stall for 2 weeks to month Good luck

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Yes it was probably mostly water weight and inflammation but I’ll take it!

[@reneekelly1440]

Lot of that eating is out of habit or boredom. First pounds we lose is water weight. Keep up your journey !

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you!!

[@Juliakirchhofffox]

Anyone have side effects and need nauseated meds?

[@dionnar6976]

It’s not that bad. Give it a day or two after the first injection then one day after the 2nd. I was told they start you off smaller doses to get use to defenting nauseous.

[@Preteahumblegirl]

Where do you give your injection at May I ask ?

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

So far I have been rotating between my stomach and arms. The stomach was what I did first. There’s a video on my page of my first injection so feel free to check it out! 😊
