I started keto in June of 24, lost 50lbs and added a compounded version of Ozempic in November to get through the holiday season with a little extra help. I'm on a fairly low dose, 50mg/week, and it's working tremendously. I've lost another 25lbs up to now and it's about 10x times easier to stick with keto, macro logging, and calorie tracking.

I feel like even with keeping my calories to about 1500/day I'm just fine, and the cravings for sweets and over indulging just aren't in my head.

I'm happy you have found something that works for you but the diet tribalism on this site is getting old. At least it's good to see the initial Keto comment getting downvoted to oblivion.

    I don't think there are any studies yet combining keto and glp inhibitors. At least I can't find them. So yeah, you get personal experiences.

50mg is a huge dose of Ozempic. 2.4mg/week is common.

    Apparently I didn't math the math, I'm taking 1.25mg/week. I was measuring in units (.01ml) and the concentration is 2.5mg/ml.
