About Me

🌾 Welcome to My Low‑Carb Life As of January 2026, I’ve started a new chapter: I recently began the GLP‑1 Wegovy pill to help me get back on track with my weight‑loss goals. Life has thrown its share of challenges my way, and I’ve gained back some of the weight I once worked so hard to lose — so this is my reset moment. My journey began in 2008, when my doctor warned me about rising blood pressure and challenged me to lose ten pounds in three months. I ended up losing 26. By 2011, life had shifted again, and I recommitted to the low‑carb lifestyle that helped me feel strong and steady. And today, I’m still committed — just with new tools, new wisdom, and a whole lot more grace for myself. I live just outside New Orleans, deep in sweet Cajun Country, where we hunt, fish, “make groceries,” and enjoy the simple things. I exercise three times a week and practice relaxing on the off days. My immediate goal is to lose 15 pounds, and I’m focused on moving forward with intention and consistency. So pull up a chair and stay a spell — this blog follows my low‑carb journey, my Southern roots, and now, my Wegovy pill adventure.

GLP 1 - Win or Loose Wegovy Semglutide for Weight Loss (Oral Pill)

 



**Wegovy (Semaglutide) 1.5 mg for Weight Loss — Win or Loss?

We’re About to Find Out.**

After an eleven‑year break, this blog is officially back from the dead. Older? Sure. Wiser? Absolutely. And now I’m diving into something brand new — and you’re invited to come along for the ride.

I’ve just started the Wegovy oral pill, one of the newest GLP‑1 options on the market. My doctor gave me the rundown on what to expect:

Prioritize protein first

Stay on top of electrolytes

Drink lots of water

Be prepared for nausea or other stomach quirks

Since this pill is so new, we’re basically pioneers here. The routine is simple: take it once daily, on an empty stomach, with four ounces of plain water. To stay ahead of the side effects, I stocked up on Nauzene for nausea and Liquid I.V. for electrolytes.

I’m sticking with my High‑Fat, Low‑Carb eating plan, and following my doctor’s advice to eat all my protein first, then chase it with plenty of water and electrolytes.

And because I’m turning this into a full‑on GLP‑1 research project, I’m adding the Carb Manager app to the mix. The free version is all I need to track what matters.

So here we go — day one of the Wegovy pill journey.

Wish me luck, and feel free to follow along as I figure out whether this is a win… or a total flop
