Ozempic newbie - body shock!

[Zenxo]

So I’m reading about higher doses being super intense. Like @L_M_B_Life said it got better over time, is that the same for everyone?

Everybody reacts differently. I was on 2.5mg for 8 weeks and it worked well enough to stay on it for another 8 weeks with zero side effects.

felt it in 30 minutes on my 2.2mg starting dose. food noise cleared, appetite tanked. titrated to 4.4 and staying put. tracking cico the whole time. weight's falling off.

been on mounjaro since november, down 20kg at 7.5mg, need another 10kg. worried about maintenance though. scared of hitting max doses for money and safety reasons. what dose are you on for maintenance?

Just did dose 4 at 2.5mg and ordering next month's supply. Everyone says 2.5 is intro and not really therapeutic, but I've dropped almost 18 lbs in 3 weeks—that's 7% of my body weight. Feeling great, no side effects. Food noise stays gone until the night before my next shot, then creeps in a bit. But everything in my gut and head says stay here.
