When did you REALLY feel the effects?

The belly-versus-alternative injection site debate is ongoing. Consistency with a site that works is usually more important than chasing the most comfortable spot for most people.
 
Flushing and nausea from MT-1 is consistent - the melanocortin pathway hits the vascular system harder than most people expect. Some people find the response dose-dependent enough that going sub-100mcg avoids the flush, but tolerance for that usually isn't worth the trial if 250mcg already ruled it out.
 
Reduce-not-eliminate is the accurate read. Most people describe it as hunger volume turning down, not off. The timing on that shift varies a lot.
 
The two-day fatigue window after injection is very common, especially early on. It usually shortens as the body adjusts to the cycle.
 
Week 2 at 4mg is early for the full effect - most people report the clearest signal between weeks 3-5. The reduced appetite at lunch and dinner is already ahead of the usual timeline.
 
At 4mg the effect tends to accumulate over the first two to three weeks rather than landing as a single moment - the 'always feeling it even before the next dose' is the signal that it's built to a steady state, which usually takes a full month at any given dose.
 
Claudia_Way's situation makes a lot of sense. Still managing blood sugar even when the weight side stalls means it is doing two jobs at once even if only one feels obvious day to day. Frustrating but still useful is an honest way to frame it.
