This... is just awful. Does it get better?!

The container-tracking approach is one of the more reliable hydration methods - it removes the mental math from an already demanding day. The external structure tends to work better than internal monitoring for people trying to hit consistent targets while managing medication side effects.
 
LDL improvement typically lags weight and glucose changes by a few months. Four days of cardio and heavy lifting is excellent for lipid optimization - that combination improves HDL and triglycerides more than LDL alone. Fiber is the specific lever for LDL.
 
6 weeks at a low dose with that level of side effects is a real test. The people who stuck through the early phase describe the turnaround clearly - it does improve. The diabetes and energy benefits follow.
 
Magnesium glycinate for cramps is a good call. D3 with K2 is consistently recommended on GLP-1. CoQ10 helps if energy is the problem.
 
Having something in the stomach before the dose - even just a small amount - takes the edge off consistently. The titrating nature of the first few months means each increase resets the adaptation clock.
 
wobbly-regrouping is speaking truth about powder taste. The artificial aftertaste is brutal. I tried probably six brands before finding one barely tolerable. Greek yogurt ended up being my easier daily protein. Real food texture, actually tastes like something. Blending plain yogurt with a small amount of powder cuts the artificial hit significantly compared to powder-only shakes.
 
Six weeks at 0.4mg with that side effect profile is a slow titration - most nausea resolves when the dose has stabilized for 3-4 weeks at a given level.
 
Magnesium for the day-after-injection side effects is worth trying - it has multiple potential effects on the GI side, on muscle symptoms like cramping and fatigue, and on nausea. The timing matters: taking it with dinner the night of your injection rather than waiting for symptoms to develop tends to work better.
 
Magnesium at that dose with plenty of water is the most reliable OTC constipation solution most people land on - the osmotic effect draws fluid into the colon and the onset is predictable. The glycinate form tends to cause less cramping if you need to use it regularly.
