I feel back to my normal before the injection, or it seems so. Perhaps quieter food noise, yet I overate without thinking. I feel hunger but no fullness.

Two months into taking my GLP-1 I was still drinking. Then my favorite bar shut down overnight and I took that as an excuse to pause. Zero drinks since late September last year, and I LOVE it.

Good news: you are in the majority, overthinking. Everyone's story differs, so other people's accounts will not predict yours. I do not get staying on the smallest dose and expecting it to hold. Your food noise was always going to return. Few people I know saw real success at that tiny dose. You...

Early on with mounjaro I shed a load of hair, which fits how fast the weight came off. Since my weight steadied, the loss stopped and everything regrew.

I tried Semax, Selank and Adamax sub q at various doses, up to a few mg. Nothing. The only thing that genuinely worked for me is a generic cerebroprotein hydrolysate, the liquid kind, not the freeze-dried powder. Fog gone. A 10 day run buys 60-90 days of clear thinking.

For me 7.5 was terrible. I lose slowly anyway thanks to all my meds and health problems, yet on 7.5 I stalled in month one then gained in month two. Now 2.5 months on 10mg and 10lbs down. I read here that many people had trouble with 7.5, so maybe you just need a higher dose.

This drug is only an aid, results will not appear by magic. My advice: be patient, stay on a smaller dose, and improve your habits daily.

Me! I used Rybelsus 3 mg, took 7 months and I kept it off for a while, but today I am 20 lbs above my lowest (130 lbs), still working at it, now on the 7 mg.

With a 30mg vial mixed with 2ml you get 15mg per ml, so 5mg is a third of a ml. Mix with 3ml and you get 10mg per ml, so 5mg is half a ml, or 50 units. Pick the water amount that gives the easiest dose math. For you, 3ml gives cleaner and more accurate draws than a repeating decimal.

Like the others said, keep each dose a month at least, no need to hurry if it is working. Its half life runs 6 days, so after a month on one dose your body holds double what you inject. E.g. 2mg weekly means 4mg in your body by week 4. Over a year on it, and 8mg is where I am. My pattern is...

Three years and a month on it for me. The start was hard, once I reached a 1mg dose, with rough side effects for a few months, then they leveled out. Mostly it was an aversion to smells now and then. Sometimes food smelled weird and I could not eat it. Like being pregnant! I spent two years on...

You know your schedule departs from the recommended one, yet you complain that the slower version underperforms. The small starter doses exist so your body can adapt to Ozempic. Many lose on those, some do not. From 1mg upward is where real weight loss starts. Nearly all my loss came in a band...

Mounjaro since April and zero stomach problems. My only side effect is that I burp more. Never once a sulfur burp, plain ones only. It does not bother me at all.

Do you use Cagri or anything else next to Reta right now to calm food noise? I am at 8.5mg Reta, week 13, and my suppression is nearly gone, if not gone.

snappy_rebuilding Hold at 2.5mg. Weight is dropping and your body has not fully adapted to the starter dose. A month minimum before thinking about going up. Why increase if it is working?!
