Anyone else on Rybelsus feeling it wear off today?

Halfway through my day and the appetite suppression feels noticeably weaker than usual, like the pill just is not hitting the same this time. Down 29 lbs on it so far, so I know it works for me, but days like this make me wonder if timing with food matters more than I thought. Does anyone else on Rybelsus get these random dips in effectiveness?

#2

Mine dipped like that around month three and it turned out I was taking it after a heavy breakfast instead of the empty stomach timing. Might be worth logging what you eat before your dose for a few days.

#3

Do you take it at the same time every morning? I'm on Wegovy not Rybelsus, but I've noticed my own appetite is way less predictable on days my routine gets scrambled

#4

Mine seem to hit harder on days I take it and then eat too soon after, so the food timing thing might be real. I started just pushing my first meal later and the dips got less frequent for me.

#5

Curious whether your dips line up with anything in particular, like a late breakfast or a day you slept badly? I am down 45 on it and mine cluster around mornings I eat too soon after the pill.

#6

idk, i'm on the shot not Rybelsus, but I get those loud afternoons too and they always even out. Curious whether yours line up with mornings you eat earlier than usual.

#8

tbh are you taking it with a proper gap before food though? I rushed mine with coffee once on the pill and the whole morning felt flat, so now I just wait longer and it hits normal

#10

Do you take it at the same time every morning? I'm on the pill too and moved mine earlier after a few flat afternoons, though I have no idea if that's actually why it settled.

#12

Not on Rybelsus but I do notice my tirz days feel weaker when I eat right after my morning coffee. Curious whether your off days line up with a rushed breakfast or if it hits randomly

#13

I'm on Rybelsus too and noticed the same thing when I took it and ate breakfast within a few minutes. Started waiting longer before food and the dips got less frequent for me

#16

I'm only a few pounds in but my flat afternoons have lined up with mornings I swallowed the pill and then had breakfast within minutes. Curious whether your weak days cluster around a specific meal timing too
