VLOGSMAS DEC 10, 2024! Today I’ve got a “what I eat in a day” video. I will have another semaglutide update video coming Saturday Dec 14, 2024. I have hesitated to do anything like this because food needs are so individualized and vary day to day, and I’m vegetarian so what I eat won’t appeal to many! But I’ve gotten a ton of requests for this kind of video since I started posting about my semaglutide weight loss journey, so… here you go. I do NOT recommend eating the way I do! Talk to your doctor or nutritionist for advice on what you should eat. This is NOT advice on what you should eat! #vlogsmas #weightloss #semaglutide

Compounded semaglutide is not without its risks. It is not FDA approved, and in fact, the FDA has warned about shady pharmacies taking shortcuts in production. “Patients should be aware that some products sold as ‘semaglutide’ may not contain the same active ingredient as FDA-approved semaglutide products and may be the salt formulations. Products containing these salts, such as semaglutide sodium and semaglutide acetate, have not been shown to be safe and effective.” FDA Source: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/postmarket-drug-safety-information-patients-and-providers/medications-containing-semaglutide-marketed-type-2-diabetes-or-weight-loss

ABOUT ME: My name is Shelly and I’m a 50-year-old web geek that jumped off the deep end into the makeup and beauty world. I’ve got normal to dry skin, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage. Cameo appearances by my rescue cats Daffy, Ziva, and Charlie (all girls). Rest in peace, my pretty girl Polly 2014 – 2024.
