Just took my Wegovy dose, sharing how it's going

I'm on tirz not the tablet, so no comparison there, but the food noise going quiet is the part that actually changed things for me too. Miami sounds like a tougher test than Columbus, honestly.

#22

I'm on the tablets too and the ramp did feel slow for me, but somewhere in the higher doses the quiet kicked in and I stopped thinking about food between meals. Miami would be a real test though, I don't blame you for noticing the pastelitos.

#24

also on the tablets and the appetite thing hit me harder than I expected once I got up there. I still get cravings but they feel more like a passing thought now instead of something I have to fight

#25

I'm on Mounjaro not the oral version, but the appetite thing hit me the same way. Here in Tucson the taco trucks are a real test and I still walk past them most days without a fight

#26

honestly, how long did the ramp take you to get to 14? I'm on the tablets too and the appetite quieting only really hit for me up around the higher doses, so I'm curious whether that matched your timeline or came earlier.

#27

Different drug and route here, but the slow climb to a steady dose was where things started to feel like less of a battle for me too. Oklahoma City has no shortage of temptation either, so I get the Miami food problem

#29

The slower ramp on oral was rough for me too but by the higher doses it evened out. Miami would be a whole different test though, how are you holding up around the food?

#30

I did the tablets for a few months before switching and yeah, the ramp felt slower than what I expected. The daily remembering part was honestly the hardest bit for me.

#32

Lexington here and I skipped straight to Zepbound so I never had the pill routine to deal with. Curious whether the slower ramp felt easier to tolerate than a jump would have.

#33

How bad is the empty stomach thing for you though, is it rough first thing or does it settle once you get going with your day? I only ask because that morning fasting rule is the one part of the oral route I keep hearing people bounce off of.

#34

I'm on the tablets too and that empty stomach wait before breakfast is the part I still fumble some mornings. Only down a bit myself, so hearing the food noise actually fades at 14 is good to know

#35

I skipped the tablets entirely and went the peptide route instead, but the appetite going quiet was the whole game for me too. Miami would've broken me by now honestly

#36

honestly the tablets were my whole route too and the climb up to 14 felt like it took forever compared to what I read from the injection crowd. Miami would have broken me early on, so making it work there says a lot.
