Sunday vs Monday injection day — does timing matter?

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.

Coming back to this thread — Down 55 lbs over the last year on this journey. Titrating slowly is so underrated, no rush to climb. Titrating slowly is so underrated, no rush to climb.

This is the thread I needed today. Thank you for sharing this honestly.

Late to this but Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. I plateaued until the dose increase kicked things back in gear. Found my sweet spot dose and I'm not in a hurry to go higher. This community is the best.

Honestly, Found my sweet spot dose and I'm not in a hurry to go higher.

Just wanted to say, Are you tracking protein or just eating intuitively. Lost 8 lbs my first month and the food noise is gone. You've got this. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Just wanted to say, How's your energy been lately. Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. You've got this. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Week 12 checking in — yes, the hair loss is real but it does slow down. Biotin helped me.

My doctor kept me at 0.5mg for 10 weeks. Slower titration, fewer side effects — worth it.

Congrats! That first 25 lbs is the hardest because you're still figuring everything out.

Following along, Consistency with my injection day mattered more than the exact dose. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Late to this but Consistency with my injection day mattered more than the exact dose. Down 3 lbs since my last shot, slow and steady. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Reading this and Down another 1.8 lbs this week and holding steady. Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. Onward! (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Just wanted to say, Don't weigh daily, the trend line is what matters. Has your sleep changed at all since starting. So glad I'm not alone in this. Everyone's different of course.

Honestly, Clothes are loose enough that I need a smaller size. Thanks for sharing this.

Adding my two cents: You've got this. The mental side is harder than people admit.

This is exactly what happened to me at week 6. The nausea just... stopped one day. Hang in there!

Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. Maintenance for three months now and holding. A1C came back normal at my last check-up. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

This made my day to read. This community is the best.

You're not alone in this, so many of us have been there. Electrolytes every morning has been a game changer.
