I have a nagging headache even when I wake up in the middle of the night for a day or two after my shot.

I don't think that's it. I'm on 5 mg of tirz and I've lost only around 4 pounds in the last two and a half months. The headaches, being tired, and heartburn are the only side effects I've noticed. I don't have a ton of weight to lose, so I'm not going to stop the injections, but I'm increasing...

I get a headache for a couple of days after my injection. It happens every time. I'm wondering if it's from low blood sugar because I wake up with the headache and it lasts two full days. My blood sugar is usually normal, even when I'm not fasting.

It's not saying it'll burn the same amount of calories as running 10k. The article is saying it mimics the metabolic state, like ketosis, you'd be in after running that far on an empty stomach. Alternatively, you could just drop carbs for a few days and achieve ketosis without the pill.

So when can I get shredded without hitting the gym?

Good q's! I started at the minimal dose, amped it up after a month, and now I'm on 1mg. I'm also trying to choose healthier foods and get more steps in.

Thanks, everyone!!!

Started on a GLP-1 med (for my type 2) back in June. It's been maybe two months, and I'm down nearly 30 pounds! Haven't weighed this little since my college days, like 15 years back. And my blood sugar? Way better!

That's wild about the food cravings LeanLady! It's like our bodies are changing what they want, or maybe we're finally hearing what they've needed all along? I've also noticed I'm just... happier? More motivated to do stuff? Anyone else?

Thanks for the answers! You're all great :)

Totally normal. I think most people (like me!) have few or no side effects. You read about them here because people post when things are amazing or awful. A forum full of "I feel nothing and I'm losing weight steadily" wouldn't be very popular.

I'm at a similar place as you, including starting weight. I had my fourth 2.5mg shot this past Tuesday. I haven't had many side effects at all I did read that effects start around 8-72 hours. I do seem to eat a bit less. More importantly, I've had a couple of days where I wasn't eating...

That was how it went for me, too! You'll lose a bunch of water weight and inflammation quickly, which is normal. Expect things to slow to a steady loss after that. Just make sure you're eating enough, and especially focusing on healthy proteins and fiber! All good! I felt the appetite...

I began on Tuesday at 2.5mg, and I weighed 235.5 lbs. I haven't had any side effects. No nausea, vomiting, or headaches. My desire for food is way down, but I'm drinking more water. This morning, I was 231.3 lbs. I'm worried that because I don't have side effects, it's not doing anything. Has...
