Oh, lisah, that's so sad. I'm sorry.

Ozempic update: down 40 lbs but have stalled over the last month, so upped my dosage again. I'm about at the maximum dose now, but I'm also close to my goal weight. Tentatively buying clothes in smaller sizes now.

San Francisco is experiencing its typical summery warm October which is a good break before daylight savings time plunges us into winter darkness and rain.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Tim is finished with chemo and got to ring the bell! He has 3 more days of radiation, and they have their own bell he gets to ring his last day, on Friday.

Ozempic update: down 40 lbs

Right on!

but have stalled over the last month, so upped my dosage again

Do you get side effects when you increase the dose? I really dislike the queasy stomach I get the first couple-few days after my Zepbound shot, and I worry that if I increase the dose, the side effects will be worse. [barf emoji]
