Highlights from this day
- amsterdam_aliquot — severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question 12:47
- logrotate — site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it 13:27
- batch_bandit — im at week 32 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem 17:40
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
genuine question let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question

my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline

how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can

please get seen
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating
right so everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line, anyway
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order

protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months

the burps started at 7.5 and not before, has anyone else had that
quick one taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
unrelated but my resting heart rate is up about 3 bpm, is that a known thing
do you tell your prescriber about the small stuff or only the big stuff
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption
for the archive powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline

right so how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast
[edited]*Janoshik not the other one
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me, anyway
update from 1 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
dont push through
that settles
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough
eat more
dose day = d0
0.25mg nothing much
0.50mg d1-d2 mild
1.00mg d1-d3 moderate
1.70mg d1-d2 moderate, d4 fine
2.40mg d1 rough, gone by d3my injection site itched for three days, normal
hope it settles
im at week 32 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem

dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
genuine question, at what point does this stop being tolerable and start being a reason to stop
slightly off topic but electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried, from memory
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking

drop a rung, take that with a pinch of salt
update on the earlier thing nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
