Rybelsus at 2.4mg - appetite crept back today

Mine seem to hit hardest when I've eaten a lot of carbs the day before. I can always tell because the next day I'm starving an hour after eating, then it evens out again within a day or two.

#24

I had a stretch like that a few weeks in where lunch vanished and I was hunting the kitchen an hour later. Mine came back to quiet within a couple days, so I stopped reading too much into any single afternoon.

#25

I had a weird hungry stretch a few weeks back too, and it turned out I'd been eating way less at breakfast than usual that week. Curious whether your meals have looked any different lately?

#28

honestly, had the same thing hit me out of nowhere a couple months in, one hungry afternoon that made me sure it had quit on me. It was back to normal the next day, so I stopped reading anything into a single weird day.

I had a stretch like that a few months in where a whole day felt like pre-med hunger, then the next morning it was quiet again. Bodies are just noisy sometimes and one loud day doesn't tell you much about the dose.

#31

I've had the exact same thing happen on the same dose, a random Tuesday where I was starving an hour after eating. It passed by the next afternoon and hasn't come back since, so I wouldn't read too much into one weird day yet.

#33

I'm on Saxenda not Rybelsus but I've had the exact same thing happen, one hungry afternoon that made me convinced it had stopped working, and by the next morning it was back to normal. Mine usually shows up on days I've barely slept.

#34

I had one of those days on a different med and it turned out I'd just eaten way less protein that morning than usual. Next day the noise was gone again.

#36

I had a stretch like that a couple months in where a whole afternoon of food noise hit me out of nowhere, then it was gone by the next morning. My guess is one loud day at 2.4 is just noise, not the dose giving up on you.

#37

I had one of those days last week and it honestly rattled me, but the quiet came back the next morning on its own. I'm only down about 10 lbs so far, nowhere near your run, but the creep felt real for a day and then just wasn't

#38

Had one of those days last week where I ate and was hungry again within the hour, then it was back to normal by the next morning. I'm not at 2.4 yet so I can't speak to the dose itself, but it felt more like a random blip than the meds quitting on me.

#39

I had one of those out-of-nowhere hungry days early on and spent the whole evening convinced it had stopped working, then woke up the next morning right back to normal. Mine seemed to line up with a rough couple of days at work, so I stopped treating every hungry afternoon as the beginning of the end.

#40

I had a stretch like that a couple months in where lunch stopped holding me and it rattled me good, but it evened out again within a few days. Mine turned out to be a stressful stretch at work, and my hunger ramped up right along with it.
