Evenity and belly fat?

Thank you all for sharing. I'll have to say that I would look forward to my 84 year-old hubby gaining some weight, and especially appetite -- because after 6 compression fractures with severe kyphosis, and having pulmonary fibrosis -- he has lost so much weight and has had little appetite for about a year and a half. He's also unable to exercise, as any exertion not only hurts his back, but leaves him more short of breath than usual -- even with oxygen. So it's been a real struggle to be able feed him enough to keep him from losing any more weight. Yesterday was his first of 12 monthly Evenity injections, so I'm hopeful.

I have the same issue. Getting ready for my 7th set and i hate this belly fat.. im glad that im not crazy.. so other people are experiencing the same thing
Hopefully when we’re both done it will ho away

I am on Tymlos about 8 Months and belly fat happens with that drug too.

Doctor denies it’s From the med but like you, I know that it’s an effect.
I haven’t gained pounds - just inches .
Hoping it will go away after treatment.
Please tell me that fosomax ( which might be my next drug ) won’t add more belly fat ?

Yes 15 months of Tymlos and I can say with certainty that I’ve gained about an inch and added belly weight. Off it now due to heart palpitations. Awaiting a new medication ughh. I will say though that my bone density definitely increased 🩷

Great to hear that your bone density increased from
Tymlos as desired.
I am scheduled for a dexa at the 12 month mark . I really hope it has done the job -
I’m
Guessing doctor will have me stay on it the full 18 months though unless I get serious side effects . I’m sorry about the heart palps you experienced - yikes - I’m prone to that too but haven’t noticed that happening as yet ….

Sending positive vibes for good bone growth… keep us posted🩷

Also, two to three weeks off and I’ve dropped 3 lbs without changing anything else. Health definitely more important than a few pounds but I had a feeling the weight gain was from the Tymlos.

Been off Evenity 2 months now and belly fat still there. What a fight—just glad I had bone gains!

Thank you so much for this info !
It will be a year for me on tymlos in september and dr wants to do a dexa scan then . It will be interesting to see if the tymlos is working and how much longer dr wants me on it. Like you said, some waist flab maybe i can get rid of post treatment . Strong bones worth it

I'm about to take the fourth Evenity injection. After my second one, I gained 8 lbs by the time I took the next shot! But, I agree with you regarding the redistribution of fat. I lost 3 inches due to multiple spine fractures. My osteoporosis is probably due to the radiation treatments for breast cancer and my Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. So, like you, I am trying to focus on how important this treatment is to my bones and "embrace" this plumper version of myself. Thankfully, I was not overweight prior to Evenity.
I hope your treatment
had positive results.
