Starting at 305 and losing 23 lbs over a few months on Wegovy is actually pretty standard early trajectory at that starting weight - the concern about sustainability applies more when the rate is high relative to current body weight. Getting serious about eating habits partway through is when...

The protein supplement need restructures once eating windows compress - the goal shifts from a daily target to dense-enough protein per bite so smaller meals still cover it.

Incremental substitution is the right approach - abrupt switching can leave a gap in receptor coverage. Small steps let you find the effective tirz dose before fully committing.

Big congrats! You look wonderful!

Try splitting your dose — 0.6 on injection day, another 0.6 four days later. Keeps levels up for health but brings peaks down a notch. glp1plotter.com lets you compare split schedules side by side.

Got the same reaction bumping to 6mg. Complete loss of interest in food, even water was hard. Nausea crept in plus that dizzy feeling when I stood up fast like I'd pass out. Higher dose took over in a bad way real quick. That total lack of eating interest felt bizarre and scary.

People saying HGH is cheaper either want higher doses than what's normal, or they tried that other compound and it didn't work for them. For me, 1mg of tesamorelin daily moved my score noticeably. Worth trying both and tracking labs to see what fits your body.
