After a few weeks off due to some rough stomach issues, I'm starting my titration over from the lowest dose today and honestly I'm nervous about whether the nausea will come back. Has anyone else restarted after a break and found the side effects easier or worse the second time around? I've kept 24 lbs off so far and really don't want to lose momentum, but my body clearly needed the pause.

Restarting titration today after a break
Second time around was milder for me, though I went slower than the first run
Did you ease back in with smaller meals those first few days or just go back to your normal portions? That made a big difference for me coming off a break.
Did you change anything about when or what you eat on the restart, or just pick up where you left off?
Did the nausea hit right away on day one or creep up over the first week? My own restart on Trulicity was quieter than round one, but the first couple days were still a little rough.
tbh did you ease back in with the same starting dose you used the first time, or did your prescriber have you begin even lower? Curious since I stalled hard on my own restart and never figured out if it was the dose or just me.
Did you go all the way back to the starting dose or somewhere in the middle? I restarted lower than where i left off and the first week was quiet, nothing like the original ramp up
tbh curious whether your stomach issues cleared up on their own during the break or if you changed anything else in that time. I had a rough patch early on and it settled once I stopped eating late at night, so I always wonder what actually did it for other people.
Did the nausea hit right away on day one for you, or did it creep in a couple days later? Mine came in delayed the first time so I never knew when to expect it
did the nausea hit right away on dose one the first time, or was it more a day or two in? Trying to figure out what to watch for when I eventually restart.
did you go straight back to the same dose you were on before the break, or ease in lower for the first week? Curious since I stalled hard after my own pause.
Mine was gentler the second round too, though I still kept a stash of plain crackers going for the first week just in case. Curious whether you're spacing your meals smaller this time or just playing it by ear
Did you change anything about how you eat on shot day this time around? I only ask because my restart went smoother once I stopped having my biggest meal the night before.
idk, did yours come back milder though? I restarted after a stomach-driven pause and the second run was gentler, though I still kept the first few days boring on purpose
Did the first few days back hit you at all, or was it pretty quiet compared to the original ramp up? I'm curious whether the break actually resets things or if it's more mental.
Did you go straight back to the same dose you were on before the break, or did you ease in lower? Curious because I have a pause coming up and I'm already dreading the restart
Mine came back milder too, but it was the headaches that surprised me the second round, not the nausea. Did your rough patch stay mostly stomach or did anything else pop up?
Mine came back milder too, though day two still had me parked on the couch. Curious whether you're splitting the dose or just riding out the first week.
Did the plain food thing too on my restart and it was mostly the dread that got me, not the nausea. Curious whether your break was a full stop or just spacing doses out.
Did you go straight back to the lowest dose or ease in with food changes first? I came back after a month off and the first couple weeks were quiet, mostly just tired.
