does eating before or after the injection make any difference

water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order

💀9😂2

dont push through

the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me

RR

sorry to jump in my injection site itched for three days, normal

[edited]

slightly off topic but is the nausea meant to be worst around day 9 or is that just me

please get seen

how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing

VB

Purity check: no report on file for lot KP-0925. Nothing logged either way.

WT

a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating

SV

electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried

FA

ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at

[edited]

*PeptideMeter not the other one

nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking

dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move

SH

if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation

DD

follow up how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you

DD

if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals, anyway

update from 3 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely

💀1❤️1⚠️6

update on the earlier thing is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea

while im here powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it

VB

New independent result logged — MKM, lot D-0718, purity 97.4% (PeptideMeter).

PS

im at week 29 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem

AN

the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me

RR

right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried

🔥1
SV

escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

[edited]
SV

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

RR

my resting heart rate is up about 6 bpm, is that a known thing

DD

taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back, for what its worth

i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free

nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases

SV

rotate the site

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 d3
TT

right so i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern

👀2❤️2💀4

update on the earlier thing week 6 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle

thats not a chat question

unrelated but everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle

VB

Batch lookup SG-1177: 7 independent reports on file, earliest 2025-11-07.

RR

slightly off topic but anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough

severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question, ill dig out the number
escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can

site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it, your mileage will differ

the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
