Newbie

Hi everyone! I'm new here and currently on Zepbound. I 'm just looking to connect with others on the same journey, share small wins, and maybe find a buddy to check in with.

Welcome. I'm on the same med and honestly the small wins thing is real, the first time a seatbelt clicked without me sucking in was a weirdly big day for me

Also on Zepbound, only a couple pounds in so far but I'm happy to be a check-in person if you still need one.

I'm only a couple pounds in too, so we're basically at the same spot. What's your first small win been so far?

I'm on Zepbound too and about a third of the way to where I want to be. What counts as a small win for you so far?

I'm on Ozempic, not Zepbound, but I'd join a check-in thread. What counts as a small win for you?

Weekly works better for me, otherwise I forget to check in at all. I'm only a pound down so far so I'd rather compare notes with people still near the start.

I'm on Zepbound too and a few months in, so the "is this doing anything" phase does eventually turn into something. Weekly check-ins work better for me than whenever, keeps me from going quiet and pretending I'm fine.

I'm on Zepbound too and still figuring out my own check-in rhythm, so how often were you thinking?

I'm on 2.5 too and honestly the buddy thing is what keeps me from overthinking every quiet week. What does a check-in look like for you, just food and side effects or the whole slog?

I'm on a research peptide myself so not Zepbound, but I've been at this long enough to say the early weeks are mostly waiting, which is its own kind of frustrating.

I'm on week two of 2.5 myself and honestly nothing dramatic yet, just a bit less food noise. Still glad to have a check-in buddy if you want one.

I'm on Ozempic and in Richmond, happy to be a weekly check-in buddy if you want one. What kind of small wins are you tracking so far?

I'm on Zepbound too and a weekly check-in thread is the only reason I've kept any kind of routine with it. Happy to be your buddy if you want one.

Columbus here too. My first few weeks were dead quiet, so the slow start comments track with what I saw.

Fifty one down for me and the weekly check-in thing really is what kept me honest, so pairing up sounds smart. What day of the week were you thinking for yours?

Small group check-ins sound like a good setup, I'm on semaglutide down in Atlanta, down 29 lbs, and honestly the weekly update thing kept me honest early on. Count me in if you want a fourth.

Count me in for the check-ins too. What day were you thinking?

I'm in if there's room for one more. Weekly check-ins were the only thing that kept me from going quiet on this stuff early on

I'm on Zepbound too and would join a small check-in group. My first month was slow enough that I almost wrote it off, so hearing others had the same start helps.
