My spouse always says, you don't mock a sick person in hospital, why mock someone who is working to improve other aspects of themselves.

I remember during trumps first term, that this was circulating around (on reddit at the time), that there is no way republicans make it out unscathed. Then covid hit, and the same discussions were happening, "so many more Republicans are dying than Democrats! There is no way another Republican will win!" And then last November happened. And not only did trump win a second time, but also the House and Senate fell under republican control.

So while I like your optimism, and fully support it, you'll have to cut everyone a little bit of slack. Seeing as how we've been promised the demise of the Republican party and platform for a long time now.

Agreed, also live in Michigan, and not that I know EVERYONE in this state, I find it really hard to believe that the state as a whole would go for this.

My Endo just started me on Ozempic. I'm a type 2, 42 years old and I've been in the low 7s for my A1C for the last 6 months with using metformin, Jardinace, glipizide, and moderate exercise and diet changes. I am about 30 pounds over weight as well and have been having a horrible time losing any weight at all.

Anyway, I'm starting at a 0.25mg dose for four weeks then moving to the therapeutic dose of 0.5mg after, and even now while starting the 0.25mg dose, I really have no desire to eat. It's like a switch was flipped. Before, I was thinking about what to eat next constantly, was basically food fixated, and now I couldn't care less. Maybe it's partly a placebo effect, but hopefully not.

Anyway, just wanted to share my starting experiences with Ozempic. I'll come back and update as I go along with this medication. Thanks for reading!
