MJ kicking fatigue's BUTT!

Hong Kong Yanpep International
Appreciate that so much!! Might be running a touch more tired, but normally deal with insomnia, so extra tiredness has actually worked in my favor lately since sleep's been genuinely great this past week.
 
Try to sneak in a nap at work during lunch sometimes, exhausted but can't actually fall asleep. Running a much lower dose than you are. At some point I'm hoping enough weight comes off that the constant tiredness finally lifts. Someday, right? Staying hopeful, though I do wonder sometimes how I even ended up here. Life just happens I guess. Working through old debts now, one day at a time. I'll get there eventually, with patience, effort, and these meds. :)
 
Agreed, though from browsing around it looks like plenty of people drop a lot in those first few weeks.

Been using a nutrition-tracking app to keep a rough handle on what I'm eating.

Went from around 224 down to about 214.

Doing easy, longer jogs every other day along with roughly the same amount of strength training.

And on top of it all, feeling fantastic.
 
More protein helped my fatigue. Mine was rough somewhere from 7.5 through 12.5. You're not at therapeutic levels yet, you'll likely adjust by weeks 8-9.
 
The energy & motivation. Since starting July 3rd, 5 jabs in (six after tonight), I walk an hour a day (suddenly I can find the time), I have redone my whole office, stripped & gutted half the garage far, replacing old wooden shelves with new steel racks, began resistance sessions thrice weekly, and began cutting the genuinely grass again. Oh, and I dropped 10kg plus my joint pain, inflammation & a clothes size. If my wife suggests a weekend task involving movement and planning, like the garden or garage, I've made plans and started before she's done. It's like I've suddenly got more time every day & my wife is running low on chores for her list lol.
 
Sorry to pop your bubble, but I was the same at the start, very energetic, upper back pain gone, and I started working out. Once the dose climbs the fatigue gets real, though no pain. Some days I'm so fatigued I could sleep all day. I'd suggest using this time to build routines that work for life: walking, protein and fiber, electrolytes, basics. Start supplements now. It's an amazing medicine, but try to keep the smallest dose that works in your case.
