I had to help my mom (I don't want to get into details) when she spent hours trying to poop. I had her stop semaglutide after that.Symptoms similar to constipation.

I am not obese by any stretch and experienced gastroparesis, gallbladder sludge and now stones due to being on a GLP-1 for a little over a month. This was NOT from any weight loss, mind you. These are known side effects. I expect more users of these GLP-1 meds to have significant gut issues as time goes on. For all the benefits, I would steer clear until improved version are available.The caveat to that is that the majority of the negative side effects happen to those who are obese.

Hi Nelson, I haven't gotten a DEXA scan. My F45 gym has an evolt body scanner but it's highly likely not comparable. The readings change drastically from one day to the next based on hydration levels. Do you think I should anyway?@AngeeWo Thanks for sharing your experience. Have you gotten a DEXA scan yet?
