Just finished my first full week at 7.5mg and it's been the smoothest jump yet. Moved my injection to Saturday morning, ate a light high-protein lunch, and stayed well hydrated the first 72 hours. Appetite suppression is strong again and I'm down 3 lbs after a two-week stall. Happy to answer questions!

I was terrified of the needle too. Now it takes me about 30 seconds on Sunday mornings.

My pharmacist suggested splitting the dose in half for the first 4 weeks. Life-changing.

This is so encouraging! I'm at 5mg and dreading the next bump. Did you change anything the evening before, or mostly day-of?

Great write-up. Standard reminder: titration timelines vary a lot, and your prescriber's schedule should always come first over anything you read here.

I hit a 6-week stall and thought the medication had stopped working. It hadn't. The body sometimes needs time to catch up with the fat loss. Measurements changed even when the scale didn't.
