I'm intrigued as to whether this is true or not. Some say it is, others say it doesn't make any difference what time of day you take your meals, as long as you eat a calorie controlled diet.

I will ask my Dr his opinion, of course, but interested in the opinion of others with experience with these drugs.
I am on meformin 2x/day 500MG each and 0.25 Ozempic once a week.
I have dropped close to 30lbs in a month while maintaining a 500-700 calorie per day diet and 30 minutes of daily cardio (bike). The original plan set by me endocryn had me increasing these dosages soon. Given my the weight loss (and the numbers below), is a dosage increase advisable (in your opinion)?

Hi everyone! I'm 69 years old and very physically active. Over the last 4 years I have lost 117 pounds, from a size 24w to a 10-12. In maintenance mode now.

I am 53. T2 for 20 odd years.
Used to be on 20 to 23 units of bolus insulin & no basal per day & Metformin for the last 5+ years. On metformin & sulfonylureas before that for 10 years.
In May, I started a diet to lose weight. It wasn't particularly a low carb diet. I just ate much less than before - like half of what I used to eat before (I used to overeat earlier). Also, 3 days a week, only egg+cheese+bell pepper for breakfast. I also increased my exercise some - increased from 20...

I started at 1/4 then 1/2 and then 1 mg. I was on it for 4 months. Went from 232-192. Came home one night around 11:00 pm and fell in the parking lot. For the first time ever my legs weren't strong enough to lift myself back up. Long story short...I was in the hospital for 3 days. Doctors never could find out if it was the ozempic or a urinery track infection. Took me off it for one month and now been back on it. Has anyone had anything near what happened to me ..read more

I had never heard of this until my friend told me about it being all over the national news a few days ago. I really couldn't understand what I was listening to in the news pieces.
This might come across as a bit harsh, but over my life, I have had various doctors suggest bariatric surgeries which would result in rapid weight loss and the more weight you have to loose the faster it drops to what would be a normal weight for someone at a given age and height, etc.
BUT this is always done...
