The worry about personality change is one the before/after photos tend to answer - most people find the person underneath is the same, just without the physical weight of managing a body that's working against them.

Days 2-4 quiet then days 5-7 louder is the standard weekly cycle at most doses.

60 lbs in 9 months at 15mg staying steady is the long-run result that shows the medication can hold the outcome, not just the drop - the maintenance hold at the same dose is the harder part.

Thanks Lucky_Pizza I'll try increasing my water. Can't hurt, right?

Thanks for the input everyone! Heal_Girl That's kind of what I figured. MetabolicMindset No B12 or B6 in my shot, so I don't think that's it. Petal Ugh, that's what I was afraid of! How long have you been taking it? Has the acne gotten any better over time, or is it still just as bad?

Hey everyone, I've been taking a GLP-1 agonist since late summer, and I've dropped around 28 pounds. I feel fantastic and am thrilled with my progress. The only downside is my acne has exploded! It's definitely hormonal (worse before my period, those deep cystic pimples, etc.). I'm pretty sure...

Thanks so much for all the replies! I'll def look into the nasal spray idea, Reese_2007, but the sterile water + single use vials seems like the easiest first step for me.

Hey everyone, has anyone ever tried taking semaglutide under the tongue? I've read it's possible with certain enhancers that help your body absorb it. I'm allergic to that benzyl alcohol, which makes using those multi-dose vials impossible, and I'd like to get around that.

Renaissance Faire Edition! Same dress, 35 lbs smaller (plus added corset!)

I hope to contribute pics to these posts soon!

You're all looking amazing! Congrats! Here's me, 103 lbs gone :)

Oh yeah! I felt so wiped out when I first started. It was like I had no energy to do anything. It did get better after a couple of months, though. Hang in there!

You haven't eaten! Go eat something. On this medication, you need a food plan, or you can get problems from malnutrition. Since you've fasted for a couple of days, take it easy when you eat. Start with broth.

I think it needs time to reach its full potency in your body. They say the fourth dose is when your body hits a stable concentration of the medication. My first week or two were fine, but then I experienced some mild side effects. They faded away, and I haven't had any major issues since...

I'm always blown away when I see your progress pics, it's such a huge transformation! Congrats again!
