Vacay break from GLP-1s?

For a colonoscopy your lower end has to be spotless, and GLPs slow your gut down, sometimes a lot, so pausing makes sense. I paused for 2 weeks before mine. Honestly, right as cravings crept back, the dreaded prep began, and I lost tons of weight during it. Straight afterward I devoured one enormous, decadent meal, then restarted my shots. Last fall I had two procedures, a phlebectomy on a vein and repair of hernias on both sides, and got conflicting instructions, hold tirz a week or hold it two. My last weekly shot was 8 days ahead of the procedure, and I restarted the day after. By that math I skipped just a week, no? Zero problems afterward.

Follow the instructions and stop at least a week beforehand. Afterward just resume at your old dose. Its only a week, GLP remains in your system that soon, so no need to return to the smallest dose, thats pointless.

I quit all GLPs cold for a month last October, and pizza never tasted better. Weeks one to three were fine, then week four was humbling, with weight rising almost daily. Without the meds, I like the lessthanhalf approach of steering clear of addictive foods almost religiously (easier on diets that use starch and protein for satiety).
