Mine were all over the place early on too but by the time I hit 40-something down it was mostly smooth nights. Around week three I did figure out my rough nights clustered right after shot day, same a…

Spent most of my 41 lb loss parked at one dose too, only moved when the appetite suppression started fading. No shame in letting a dose do its job before climbing. Welcome.
