Ozempic plateau - anyone else?

IPA side effects killed it for me—hunger spike + water weight. switched to Tesa daily (2mg fasted, no weekly break) based on the Egrifta trial data. 20mg kits run under $200; full 6-month is just 2 kits.

had a dose wobble on semaglutide that made it stop working. switched to a low dose of tirzepatide and at first thought it wasn't working because there's no nausea like sema gave. but gave it a shot and quietly forgot about food. lost another 15 lbs in 6 weeks on the second-lowest dose.

went from 0.25 to 0.50 to 1mg on wegovy, then looked into switching to tirzepatide. conversion charts say 1-2.4mg of sema is like 5mg of this other one. started at 2.5mg to be safe but by day 3 the appetite stuff was gone, so maybe i needed more.

That kind of stall is honestly typical after such a significant initial drop. Not a sign of failure, just the body settling into a new normal. Progress like yours, more activity, better food choices, still counts even when the scale itself sits still. Right now it's really more about staying consistent, watching protein, and tracking the bigger picture, strength, measurements, energy levels. Might help to touch base with whoever manages your prescription and review the plan too.
