My doc kept me at 0.5mg for almost 3 months because I was losing well and tolerating it fine. I pushed back a bit because I'd read about faster titration schedules, but looking back I'm glad she slowed it down. Zero serious side effects the whole time. Anyone else had a similar experience with a conservative titration?

Coming back to this thread, I stayed on the starter dose an extra month and it was the right call. Are you pairing it with any walking or strength work. So glad I'm not alone in this. Everyone's different of course.

Coming back to this thread, Blood pressure is finally in normal range. Consistency with my injection day mattered more than the exact dose. So glad I'm not alone in this. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Just hit my first 20 lbs and I can't believe it. Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. Rooting for you. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.
