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.

I keep a food and weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. You're doing amazing. Walking 8k steps a day alongside the meds really compounds. Thanks for sharing this.

For what it's worth, A1C came back normal at my last check-up. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. Everyone's different of course.

This past year has been the biggest change of my life. Walking 8k steps a day alongside the meds really compounds. Such an inspiration honestly. This community is the best. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Coming back to this thread — Don't weigh daily, the trend line is what matters. So glad I'm not alone in this.

Following along — Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. Electrolytes every morning has been a game changer. Meal-prepping kept me from grazing on bad days.

Adding my two cents: I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. Consistency with my injection day mattered more than the exact dose. Hang in there. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Adding my two cents: Titrating slowly is so underrated, no rush to climb. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. Thanks for sharing this. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Late to this but Finally cracked a plateau I'd been stuck on for a month. Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. Rooting for you. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)
