I'm a nurse and I want to share a clinical perspective on the GI side effects. What's happening in your gut during the first few weeks is the medication slowing gastric emptying significantly. This is by design — it's the mechanism that creates satiety. The nausea is your body adjusting to this new normal. It gets better as your body adapts.

For what it's worth, I split my routine around the shot day now and it helps. Onward!

Are you tracking protein or just eating intuitively. Such an inspiration honestly.

Reading this and Finally cracked a plateau I'd been stuck on for a month. Did you split your dose or take it all at once. Rooting for you.

Adding my two cents: Rooting for you. Are you pairing it with any walking or strength work. So glad I'm not alone in this.

My doctor had me hold at 7.5 until side effects settled. Did the nausea ease up after the first few weeks for you. Rooting for you. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Honestly, Did the nausea ease up after the first few weeks for you. I stayed on the starter dose an extra month and it was the right call. Been there — it does get easier I promise. Rooting for you. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.
