This community saved my first month on medication. I came here when I was ready to quit at week 3 and people here convinced me to push through. It's now month 5 and I'm down 38 lbs. Thank you all.

For what it's worth, How are you finding the higher dose so far. Bumped up to the next dose this week and feeling good. You've got this.

Same here — Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. Hit goal weight this morning, still in shock. Are you tracking protein or just eating intuitively. So glad I'm not alone in this.

Same here — What's your current titration schedule looking like. I stayed on the starter dose an extra month and it was the right call. You've got this. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, but slow worked for me. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Just wanted to say, Protein first at every meal has been my golden rule. Clothes are loose enough that I need a smaller size. Everyone's different of course.

Same here, Are you tracking protein or just eating intuitively. Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. Hang in there. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)
