This blog is dedicated to the low-carb menu challenge presented by Jimmy Moore. I'm living the Louisiana low carb lifestyle, where low-carb is the new way to go ! I live southwest of New Orleans, Louisiana....have three awesome kids. We are deep down in the heart of sweet Cajun Country, where we kick back and relax, go hunting, fishing, or make groceries! My doctor told me that my blood pressure numbers were getting too high, so I had to loose weight. She challenged me with ten pounds in three months. That was October 7, 2008. I lost 26 pounds !!! In February of 2011, I found that I had gained a few pounds more than I would have liked, weighing in at 170 pounds. I had to get back into the swing of living the low carb life again !! I am loving the 'low-carb' style and wish to contiue it . I exercise three times a week at the gym, and off the 'off' days, I learn to RELAX !! November 2011, finds me in different circumstances -- a new lifestyle, great community of friends and a challenge to keep that 45 pounds that I lost OFF. Feel free to read my blog, browse around, or just sit a spell!!

GLP 1 Wegovy Pill Day 1 -- Changes, Tips and Tricks




Day 1 on the Wegovy Pill: The Saliva Chronicles Begin

Good morning, friends. After a full 24 hours on the Wegovy pill, I can officially report my very first side effect: excess saliva. Yes, you read that correctly. I spent half the day swallowing my own spit like I was preparing for a competitive gulping tournament. Cute, right? I’ll be Googling “how to stop feeling like a human fountain” later.

This morning I took my Wegovy pill exactly as instructed , on an empty stomach with just a tiny sip of water. The pill is very particular. It wants its moment. It wants silence. It wants space. So I waited the full hour before taking my morning medications because absorption is the name of the game.

Hydration Adventures: Strawberry Lemonade Edition

My doctor recommended Liquid I.V. for hydration, so today I tried the Strawberry Lemonade flavor for the first time. Let me be honest: the first sip tasted like someone whispered “lemonade” over a cup of saltwater. The texture? Suspicious. The vibe? Confused.

So I added a few drops of honey. Still not sweet enough, but at least now it tastes like it’s trying. Also, I only used half a stick instead of the whole packet; partly to test it, partly because these things are $8.97 for six sticks and I’m not trying to take out a hydration loan.

Nausea Watch 2026

Nauzene is on standby for nausea, though I haven’t actually felt any yet. I did take one yesterday, but I didn’t respect the sacred WAITING PERIOD between the Wegovy pill and everything else. Today, I’m doing it correctly: I’ll wait to see if nausea shows up, and if it does, Nauzene will be ready like a little pink superhero. A bottle of 42 chewables is only $5.48, which feels like a win.

Diet: The Protein-First Experiment

Now for the food situation. My doctor told me to eat protein first, so I’m experimenting with when to eat and how hungry I actually get. Honestly, I’m curious. Will I be starving? Will I forget food exists? Will I suddenly become a person who eats three bites of chicken and says, “I’m full”? We shall see.

This is all research: real, messy, human research. Wegovy is not playing around, and neither am I. If you’re on this journey too, arm yourself with information. Read labels. Search things. Visit Reddit. Ask questions. Do what works for your body.

Because being informed isn’t just smart ... it’s survival.
