Titration schedule spreadsheet — link inside

Compounding pharmacy deep dive: I've now used 4 different pharmacies over 18 months. Two were excellent (fast turnaround, great COAs, consistent results). One was mediocre. One was concerning enough that I stopped after one order. The variance is real — do your research.

Starting the weight-loss log here because I need accountability. Starting weight: 278 lbs. Goal: 195 lbs. Week 1 on 0.25mg semaglutide. No real side effects yet, just a slightly off stomach on injection day. Will update every Monday.

Adding my two cents: Has your sleep changed at all since starting. Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. Rooting for you. Everyone's different of course.

Same here, Walking 8k steps a day alongside the meds really compounds.

For what it's worth, I keep a food and weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. Honestly by month three the side effects basically disappeared. Keep us posted!

Totally agree. How are you handling the injection-day fatigue. This community is the best.

Adding my two cents: My doctor had me hold steady until side effects settled. Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, but slow worked for me.
