Great blood work results!
I'm beginning month 7 of being on Zepbound, now on 7.5mg for the past two months. I've lost about 35lbs, pretty slowly but steadily, and I hope to get down 15 more pounds.
At my last doctor visit, when I asked to be bumped up to 7.5mg, my doc wanted to make sure that everything was going well for me, and that before my next check-in (Mon July 13th), she wanted to order the common panels to make sure everything was tracking normally.
I do happen to take supplements after bariatric surgery about 11 years ago, but even with that my blood work has also showed something wonky: anemia, low Vitamin D, low calcium, etc.
I had blood work done yesterday and got my results back today. This is the first time in many years where everything was PERFECT! No low iron or calcium, no high triglycerides, no high B12. I am just ecstatic. And of course, I feel great. I can't wait to have that conversation with my doc. I'm not looking to go up in dosage because I think this slow & steady works really well at the moment. If I stay stuck in my range for another month, I may ask to go to 10mg.
Just wanted to share some positive news!!
