First week, feelin' nothin'?

Really hoping I notice something even at 0.25mg, just want a mild appetite reduction at this point. Already down 120 pounds and looking to shed a few more to really lean out, but my hunger's been unusually strong lately. Counting on the fact that my body weight sits well under the typical person taking this drug, so the entry-level amount might actually do more for me than it typically would.

Exact same experience! Just kicked things off this Monday. Monday through Wednesday, zero appetite, had to force down some boiled eggs just to eat something. Thursday brought a hint of hunger back in the morning. By the weekend I felt mostly normal again, though I made sure to prioritize protein. Today marks a full week and every side effect has cleared up. Just staying really hydrated now, which keeps me feeling satisfied. Next injection's tomorrow, so making sure I'm drinking plenty beforehand.

4th week at 0.5 for me, began at 0.25. Zero symptoms, hunger down for about a day, then nothing. At 0.5 I feel the suppression. So don't expect much in month one, that dose just acclimatises your body, nothing more.

Days one to three my food noise dipped, but the fourth brought cravings, extra eating and sugar. First week on 0.25mg here.

That's the starter dose, and some people feel nothing at this point. No need to worry, and after a day like yours, simply carry on.

Hey all, its been almost a week since my initial dose and nada. Zilch side effects, and my appetite's still goin' strong. I'm on .25 mg, so just wonderin' if this is how it goes at first!

Hey! That's actually a common question when starting out. Everyone responds differently, and some people may not notice significant changes at the beginning.

How has your appetite been so far? Have you noticed even a slight change in cravings or portion sizes, or does everything feel pretty much the same?

Curious to hear how your experience develops!
