Following up on compounded semaglutide and wanted to open this up for the group. Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, but slow worked for me. Are you tracking protein or just eating intuitively.

Down 9 here and same story with the appetite disappearing some days. I started logging protein after realizing I'd gone a whole day on like 40g, and hitting 90-100g now keeps my energy way more steady.

Down 10 here too, and same deal with appetite vanishing randomly. I started shaking a scoop of protein powder into my morning coffee on the days food sounds gross, which keeps me from crashing by afternoon.

Down 5 here and the vanishing appetite hits me hardest at dinner, so I started doing eggs or cottage cheese at lunch instead of saving protein for the evening meal. That shift alone kept me from the afternoon slump everyone's describing.

Down 11 here and the appetite thing is real, especially by mid-afternoon. I've had luck making dinner my only priority meal since that's when I want to skip most, and sipping a fairlife through the day covers the rest. Whatever gets you to 90ish grams seems to be the move.

Down about 53 and I landed on the opposite schedule - dinner is my lightest meal because that's when the appetite is basically gone anyway. Front-loading protein at breakfast and lunch works way better for me than trying to force it in the evening.Down 53 here and I'm the opposite - dinner is when I can barely eat anything, so I front-load protein at breakfast and lunch instead. Whatever slot you can actually get food down in seems to be the answer.
