Rybelsus check-in for today - who's dosing this morning?

Took my morning tablet with a small sip of water on an empty stomach like usual, and now I'm doing the waiting game before coffee. Down a little over 5 lbs so far, so the slow and steady route seems to be working for me. Anyone else on the oral version dosing this morning, and do you notice a difference taking it at a certain time of day?

Congrats on the 5 lbs, that's real progress on the tablet route. I take mine first thing too and swore off coffee until the wait was up after a rough morning early on, so now it's just part of the routine. Down 57 lbs myself and mornings have worked better for me than when I experimented with later dosing.

5 lbs is solid, the tablet is definitely a slower burn than the shot from what I've seen here. I dose in the morning too and noticed if I wait too long to eat after the wait period I get queasy, so timing breakfast matters more for me than the dose time itself. Down 32 lbs on it so far.

Oral crew checking in - I take mine right after waking too, and the coffee wait became automatic months ago. Down 65 lbs on the tablet now, and mornings have been the only timing that never upset my stomach when I tried switching things up. Slow and steady is exactly how I'd describe it compared to what shot users post here.

Oral crew here too, took mine with the usual tiny sip and held off on coffee as always. Down about 13 lbs on the tablet, and mornings are the only timing that's been kind to my stomach as well. Agree the wait becomes just another part of waking up after a while.

#6

Morning doser here too, tablet with the tiny sip and the coffee wait is just muscle memory at this point. I tried an afternoon dose once early on and it did not agree with me, so mornings have been my only lane ever since. Down 44 lbs on the oral version, so the slow burn is clearly doing its thing.

#7

Oral crew here, down 25 lbs on the tablet and the coffee delay is basically reflex now. I experimented with an evening dose a while back and my stomach hated it, so first thing in the morning is the only window that's ever worked for me too.

#8

Morning doser here too, empty stomach and the coffee hold is just baked into my routine now. I tried shifting to evenings once and it wrecked my stomach, so I never strayed again. Down 53 lbs on the tablet, so clearly the slow route is paying off for me as well.

#9

Congrats on the 5 lbs, the tablet route moves slow but it stacks up. I'm a morning doser too and one evening attempt early on taught me my stomach only tolerates the empty-stomach routine. Down about 65 lbs on the oral, so the patient approach clearly works if you stick with it.

Down 23 on the injectable myself, so seeing you tablet folks pile up losses like that is motivating. Curious whether evening dosing bothered everyone or mostly stomach-sensitive people, since I just take mine whenever I remember. Keep stacking those 5 lb chunks, they add up faster than you think.
