Non-diabetics typically see food noise settle around weeks 4-8 - dose matters but 0.5mg is often where it starts, and the transition is gradual rather than a switch that flips.

The gastric emptying slowdown means small, frequent portions prevent the nausea that comes from overfull or empty stomach. Protein-dense, low-fat options tolerate the slowest transit best.
