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.

Same here — How's your energy been lately. Finally cracked a plateau I'd been stuck on for a month. So glad I'm not alone in this. Everyone's different of course.

Reading this and Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. My doctor had me hold at 7.5 until side effects settled. Ugh I felt exactly the same way at that stage. Keep us posted! (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Totally agree. I keep a food + weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. What's your current titration schedule looking like. You've got this. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.
