Hey all. After setting some goals, I had a big ol' setback. I went up on my Ozempic dose maybe a bit too fast and had major diarrhea. I honestly thought I had a GI bug because it was just so much diarrhea. It took me two doses to put two and two together and realize it was the Ozempic killing me rather than anything else. I'm talking 30+ episodes of explosive diarrhea about 2 days after my 1mg dose and then multiple episodes for several days more. So, I decided to take a break from the Ozempic. During my break, I got whatever nasty respiratory virus that was going around. It was worse than when I had COVID. I took 3 days off work for it. It was impressive. So, with 2+ weeks of diarrhea followed by 1+ week of respiratory garbage, I'm not surprised I had a big ol' setback.
I head back to work on Tuesday (I took a week off for funsies between Christmas and New Year's) and will get back on track. Other than making good food choices, not beating myself up for indulging, and working to get back to the gym, I don't have any other big plans. I've found restricting myself is more harmful than helpful, so that's out. I've found that being kind to myself is also better than beating myself up. And I've found that if I can just get myself to the gym, I'm always happy I went.
Anywho, photo dump and moving on (and blogging more)!
