The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Notes -
Keep in mind that I'm only going off of second-hand forum posting, but from what I've read, people whom have been taking GLP-1 agonists have had to, for whatever reason, stop taking them for a month or so - and when they got back on, they noticed they started loosing more weight compared to before.
Plus, it's also what my brother did, so, again. Small data point, not sure if it's a trend. If I manage to get over my current plateau once I get back on semaglutide, I'll probably be letting people know about it.
As for sluggishness, I've never had that issue. If anything, I had more energy than ever on SG - whereas my brother reported having a big boost of energy on Cangrilitide, and I never experienced such. Go figure.
Interesting. I wonder what mechanism could explain that.
