Anyone have experience with a partner quitting a GLP-1? Anon us

Open file 29.93 KB, 900x506
My girlfriend has been on zepbound for 6 months and has lost about 50 pounds from 300 down to 250 (side note: fuck GLP-1s) but now she's quitting due to all the side effects. She was on a 5mg dose and had high sensitivity to it so her doctor told her to just stop cold turkey, that was about two weeks ago. Her appetite is back a bit but it seems like slow going so far as it clears her system. Anyone have any experience with a partner quitting? What should I expect going forward? How long did it take for appetite to go back to normal? Did they regain the weight they lost or keep it off?
Never seen a person stop taking that shit
>>93758 Unless there is a reason to quit - e.g., cannot afford it anymore or they have unmanageable side-effects (latter is unlikely to be an issue once they have been on for a while) - then they will keep on it and keep on loosing. I love my wife, but I hate the saggy balloon she has become after losing the 100+ glorious pounds it took for her to gain over 28 years of marriage.
My gf lost 50 pounds from 185 to 135. Started on semaglutide for the first 30 and then tirzepatide for the last 20. She has stopped for brief periods but always hops right back because the “food noise” as she describes it comes back and she’s “scared to get fat again” (despite me telling her many times I like bigger women and blah blah blah) Anyways, stating the obvious, but the weight almost always comes back as most users don’t actually change their previous eating habits and go right back to their old ways. The appetite and regain will be a person by person thing. If she put it on slow before, it’s likely to be a slow regain, but probably will be put back on faster than she lost it.
>>93773 Sorry brother, I feel like I dodged a nuke when she got off after "only" losing 50 pounds >>93774 Oof, that's rough. I get it, no amount of telling her I love her the way she is has really helped me. I'm hoping the weight comes back obviously but I've been trying to tell myself 250 is still big enough. She still looks great but she looked amazing at 300
My wife has taken Semaglutide in tablet form for 2 years. She can't stomach the higher doses and now takes the lowest possible dose orally daily. All diabetic markers are right down and she feels like she eats decent meals without any desire to snack on the lowest dose, so maybe look at tablet form just to maintain, as you can skip a day if you're treating yourself. Because she skips it one day at the weekend I took it for 6 weeks just before summer to give me a kick up the ass to exercise and get back doing weights. The feeling of feeling full is unreal. You literally don't snack and realise you eat too much. It took a month from being off it before I craved any afternoon snack. The best thing to stop that was upping the protein levels, vanilla lean protein powder has been a godsend for me since I stopped. I'm sure you don't want to hear this, but losing 40lbs has made a huge difference with me so I sympathised with the wife. I'll always like ssbbw porn I'm sure, but I realise the impact being so heavy had on my wife.
