A growth on my left side, the hydrocele, had been bothering me for a long time. It had swollen to roughly the size of a small plum, big enough that doctors were talking surgery. After I started Ozempic it slowly came down on its own over a couple of months until it was back to normal. I actually didn't realize how much it had settled until I went in for an MRI on a fatty lump on my thigh, which had only become visible once I lost weight. The scan happened to capture the old swelling too and graded it as nothing more than minor.

quit sema after 11 months and 65 lbs because I thought I'd "learned new habits." the food noise was back in 3 weeks and it came back LOUDER than before I started. gained 20 in two months. it's not a course you finish, it's a tool you keep using. wish someone had been honest with me about that before I started.

things i learned the hard way on retatrutide: the nausea peaks at week 3 not week 1 alcohol becomes literally toxic, one beer = food poisoning sulfur burps mean you're titrating too fast the "ozempic face" thing is real and arrives at month 4 nobody tells you any of this until you post about it
