Can attest to that, do not do Ozempic, my doctor said it would jump-start my weight loss. Wigged me out badly and I only used it for 3-5 months. Then she switched to Trulitcity but thankfully it was to expensive.
It was intermittent fasting, you just have to find your sweet spot, fast 36-48 hours every 7 days. Its why the caveman diet is BS, no doubt they would go hungry days at a time. Then eat a full but sensible meal at the same hour every day worked for me once a day only . Went from 370 to 270 in 9 months with no exercising, and all of a sudden A1C is clear no HBP. I was 57 years old and had been obese for at least 5 years now it comes off slower but still moving in the right direction. After a few weeks, I can do fine on a small bowl of food and water or tea for a whole day.
No sugars even watch fruit sugars, I would do some honey occasionally but after a while, even that tastes too sweet. Watch the carbs too, though I'd do a stir-fried brown rice that's pretty adaptable to any protein of vegetables, grilled chicken, seared ahi tuna salmon, a small spoonful of peanut butter, and dark chocolate chips were my cheat. FWIW about a month before I did a 7-day fast, it wasn't easy but it did help me come up with various flavored water and teas I still enjoy
Allergies cleared up, and when they came back it stopped my brief backslide. Used always be stuffed and clogged sinuses needed Afrin or nose spray.
For me, I try to start the fast on Friday, NGL that first day I usually drink water and sleep as much as possible if I can get that first 18-24 hours I can usually knock out the 36 to 48 much easier. I do drink ginger tea or ginger water it just settles my stomach once it starts to revolt. Take your vitamins lots of time just a potassium pill helps too. Be flexible enough to find what works for you, I busted the first couple of attempts 30 or so hours in and it pissed me off so, I finally pushed through.
The next problem take care of the loose skin...
LOL if you try a 7-day fast make sure after that first time you eat you are near a bathroom, is all Im gonna sa
