Now I’m on a New Medication, Ozempic

This is a once weekly injection. But it’s not insulin. I’ve taken three starter doses (.25 mg) so far, and it seems to be tolerable for my body. But here’s the surprise: I’ve lost five pounds already!

There is really only one side effect: my wedding ring is now so loose, I’m constantly having to be mindful of it, or else I might lose it. That might also be a metaphor of my marriage.
