Why I will not be starting weight lifting until I'm on a stable dose (self.semaglutide)

Trigger Warning: shameless GI TMI

Whenever I can muster the confidence to re-enter the dating scene I end up working out to get in good shape. I have various psych issues I'm working on so I rarely leave the house these days, but I had to get blood drawn for med/marker levels. While I was in my second week of semaglutide treatment I experienced a distressing "thought I was passing air" scenario in public.

I'd been so psyched that Wegovy was covered by my insurance and that new normal of confidence almost resulted in me returning to the gym. However since I can't stand cardio yet love strenuous weight lifting, I realized I couldn't do that with a GI system with so many variables right now.

When did y'all adapt to these types of gastrointestinal changes?

I never had a "sharted myself in public" incident. My bowel movements fluctuated for a couple months. and I had a couple sweaty poops. I guess I was lucky.
