I started Wegovy in December and I've lost 30 lbs. It has turned off the obsessive food chatter in my head and I feel like a normal person food wise for the first time ever. This is how normal people must feel!

I was amazed to learn that normal people don’t have “obsessive food chatter” I want to live that life so bad.

I had a VSG in 2013. Did well. I went from 271 to 180. After some depression [a man issue!], I got to 175 in 2021 :-). Now, due to some stress (when I graze), I'm up to 200 pounds. I've tried some of the GLP-1s, but what do you do for the Constipation? i HATE being constipated. Grr. Thanks for any replies with advice.

Fiber, fiber and yes more fiber. Oh, and my morning coffee! If I need more, Fibercon.

I have Fiber in the turkey chili (kidney beans) I make and I also take 6 (2 morning, 2 mid and 2 evening) of the Psyllium Husk Fiber Supplement 1450mg, 240 Capsules from Amazon just a bit above recommended daily dosage, but my GP said it can't cause any issues other than maybe gas..but I have noticed anymore than normal with a bypass..

I also eat 3 (again 1 at different times throughout the day) OLLY Probiotic + Prebiotic Gummy, Digestive Support and Gut Health, 500 Million CFUs, Fiber, Adult chewable Supplement for Men and Women, Peach, 30 Day Supply - 30 Count. I started the psyllium when my GP started me on Ozempic to break my 3 month stall and to stop the annoying food cadence in my head!

I'm holding at 1mg dose and have had very little Constipation if any. I don't "go" regularly at 7am everyday like I used too, but I do go each day. I just make sure I get my Water in and all works as it should. I hope this helps!
