What nobody told me before I started: the first 3 days after each injection are rough, and then it gets dramatically better by day 5-6. I used to dread injection day. Now I know to schedule light meals on injection day, drink a ton of water, and the worst is over in 72 hours.

Totally agree. That stall messed with my head too, you'll break through. Ugh I felt exactly the same way at that stage. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

For what it's worth, Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. Rooting for you. Everyone's different of course.

Honestly, You're not alone in this, so many of us have been there. Strength training helped me keep muscle while losing. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Late to this but I plateaued until the dose increase kicked things back in gear. Walking 8k steps a day alongside the meds really compounds. Hang in there.

Honestly, Protein first at every meal has been my golden rule. How long did the food noise take to quiet down. Everyone's different of course.

Adding my two cents: Titrating slowly is so underrated, no rush to climb.

Late to this but The mental side is harder than people admit. Are you pairing it with any walking or strength work.

This is exactly what happened to me at week 6. The nausea just... stopped one day. Hang in there!

Coming back to this thread — Six months in and down 41 lbs total. Don't weigh daily, the trend line is what matters. Sending good vibes your way. This community is the best.

Honestly, How are you handling the injection-day fatigue. Has your sleep changed at all since starting. Electrolytes every morning has been a game changer. So glad I'm not alone in this. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)
