The food noise went quiet at week 3 — sharing my experience

Starting my journey log here. Current weight: 247 lbs. Goal: 175 lbs. Starting Ozempic 0.25mg this week. I've tried everything else over the past decade and I'm finally taking this step. Going to document everything honestly — the good and the bad.

Reading this and Bumped up to the next dose this week and feeling good. Keep going, seriously.

Late to this but I keep a food and weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. Found my sweet spot dose and I'm not in a hurry to go higher. Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. You've got this. Everyone's different of course.

Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. Thanks for sharing this.
