Down about 40 on it and my off days almost always follow a rushed morning where I ate way too soon after the pill. Giving it a long empty-stomach window when I wake up made those random dips disappear for me. One soft afternoon after 29 lbs is just a blip.
Anyone else on Rybelsus feeling it wear off today?
Interesting to see this from the pill side -- on the injected version I get random soft days too even though there is no food timing involved, so maybe some daily variance is just part of how these meds work. That said, the pattern everyone is describing with early breakfast lines up too well to ignore. At 41 lbs down myself, I have learned one meh afternoon usually means nothing.
Shot user here, down 35 on my dose, and I still get random soft days even with a once-weekly shot, so some of it is just normal daily noise. That said, your pattern with the early breakfast thing sounds too consistent to be coincidence -- the fasting window thing might be worth trying. One off afternoon at 29 down is not a trend.
At 27 lbs down I get those afternoons too, usually when I grabbed breakfast early and did not give the pill its empty-stomach stretch. Coincidentally my soft days almost vanish when I hold off eating for a while after taking it. One wobbly afternoon after 29 lbs is just noise in my experience.
Shot user here at 49 down and I still get the occasional soft afternoon even with a weekly injection, so some of it is just daily noise. That empty-stomach window thing though does seem to be a real pattern for the pill folks in this thread, so your breakfast timing hunch might be onto something.
34 down on Rybelsus and my soft afternoons almost always trace back to eating too soon after taking it. When I wait a good stretch before breakfast it hits like it should. Sounds like your early breakfast days line up with exactly that.
31 lbs down on Rybelsus here and I could have written your post last week, same mid-day fade. In my case the wobbly afternoons only happen when I ate within a couple hours of taking it, so your timing theory fits what I've seen too. Try holding off on breakfast a bit longer on your next pill day and see if it steadies out.
Only 7 lbs in on 7mg but the pattern already matches mine — the fade days are exactly the ones I ate early after the pill. Vegas heat might be making me drink coffee sooner too, which probably counts as breaking that fast the same way. Worth testing one late-breakfast day before assuming anything's wearing off at 29 down.
40 lbs down on Rybelsus and I stopped worrying about random dips once I tracked them — every soft day for me was one where I ate or drank coffee early after the pill. My steadies are always the days I push breakfast way back. Sounds like your timing hunch is probably right.
