Oh boy ok yeah that doesn't look good.
You'll adapt.
Yeah it sucks

I think I know where I went wrong, in April I had a week in Prague and May I had two weeks in Gran Canaria where I hit the carbs hard with especially Guinness.
I also increased carb intake because it was hard to resist the all inclusives.
Second week of Gran Canaria I went on shorts and I love the taste of Sambucca but when I got home found out it was a full of carbs.
I'm going to ask to go back on Empagliflozin because that stuff worked but I will have to follow the instructions to the letter eg drinking at least 2 litres of water a day.

Cut out carbs as much as you possibly can!
I'm convinced I'm heavily insulin resistant/prediabetic. It's never been diagnosed though as my HbA1c is always relatively normal, and I reckon that's because I try to be keto all the time, it just feels better, which means no elevated glucose levels which means no glycated haemoglobin increase.

Daily dose of 14mg? Jeebus.
I'm on a weekly 1.7mg!

I'm an expert on carbs after 20 years, it's just hard to do it sometimes - read above reply to Efour.

Cool, didn't mean to preach to the converted

Hope you come right soon mate. And I get you on how hard it is to do. Crisps are my weakness.

Sexy is on the oral version which is why his dose is so high compared to your injectable dose.

All that is needed for the majority change diet exercise, change sleep habits. Prepare for long term impacts of the drug.

For normal people it sounds like snake oil.
To use Wegovy properly you have to change your diet and exercise

Bad news today, I've been taken off it because it's done zero and my HbA1c has rose to dangerous levels.
I've now been referred to Tier 3 Specialists.
