For what it's worth, Honestly by month three the side effects basically disappeared. I plan my routine around shot day now and it helps. Keep us posted! Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Late to this but My doctor had me hold until side effects settled. Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. This community is the best. Everyone's different of course.

Coming back to this thread, Going slow on titration made all the difference for side effects. Going slow on titration made all the difference for side effects. This community is the best.

Honestly, My doctor had me hold until side effects settled. Found my sweet spot dose and I'm not in a hurry to go higher. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Adding my two cents: Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. How's your energy been lately. Protein first at every meal has been my golden rule. Onward! Everyone's different of course.

Just wanted to say, I keep a food and weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. Going slow on titration made all the difference for side effects. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. Rooting for you.

Just wanted to say, I plateaued until the dose increase kicked things back in gear. Cutting fatty meals the day of my shot helped the nausea. My doctor had me hold until side effects settled. Onward!

Coming back to this thread, How are you finding the higher dose so far. Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. What's your current titration schedule looking like. You've got this. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

For what it's worth, Meal-prepping kept me from grazing on bad days. Has your sleep changed at all since starting. Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. Rooting for you.
