magnesium
im at week 8 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
*PeptideMeter not the other one

how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move

has anyone had reflux specifically get worse rather than better
coming back to this has anyone had a side effect that got worse at a lower dose
escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
it does stop

the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
[edited]nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases

sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps
does eating before or after the injection make any difference
rotate the site
is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing
coming back to this i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can, still working it out

taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
started shedding hair around month 18, does it stop
is the nausea meant to be worst around day 6 or is that just me
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern

water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
| Step | What | Give it |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | water, properly, all day | 3 days |
| 2 | soluble fibre | 4 days |
| 3 | magnesium | 3 days |
| 4 | stool softener | 3 days |
| 5 | pharmacist | now |
eat more
how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
