Literally cannot believe my bad luck. I’m only at the very beginning of month two on 1.5 mg and all of a sudden the food noise is back with a vengeance. I binged last night after not having done so for a whole month argh

I should’ve gone up to 4 mg this month but it was working so well!! Appetite was totally suppressed. Literally until I opened the second bottle??

Has anyone else been in this situation? Do people recommend waiting longer to eat after taking it? Double up to two per day? I’m so effing annoyed and I don’t want to shell out another $149 this month if I can help it. Thanks!!

I am starting my 4th week on 1.5, 50F, SW 209 CW: 205 GW: 145. I don’t know if I’m just super sensitive to this drug or what. I also take a stimulant for ADHD (Vyvanse), and recently increased it, so maybe the combo is becoming a problem?? But today I’ve been struggling to eat all day - first day it’s been anywhere near this bad.

I’m trying to prioritize getting in protein and staying hydrated and I am now very slowly drinking a second smoothie of the day. Could not finish lunch.

I wonder if I should take a day off to try and catch up? I will talk to the Dr about this too.

My gut says that I may need to go back down on the ADHD med next month. But even before the med increase, appetite has been completely suppressed. I guess maybe my body will acclimate at some point, but damn this drug is strong!! No way I’d want to go up next month to 4 mg. I don’t feel ready

What do y’all do on the days when it’s just so hard to eat and nothing appeals? Thanks!!

I’m finishing up 1.5 mg week 3, and some chronic joint pain and tendonitis I’ve had for months is starting to melt away. I was limping 3 weeks ago and in so much pain all the time, and now I’m walking almost pain free, no limp. Stairs feel so much easier!

It’s hard to tell if it’s the pill, because I also started doing PT about the same time and got a portable TENS machine, which also helps a ton. 😅 But I’m guessing the Wegovy is playing a role?

Would be interested to hear what others have noticed with inflammation?

I gave back more than half of my EIDL loan (122K total) some years ago and I have had it reamortized since then. My monthly payment is now a third of what it once was. But because I already paid back half, is there any chance of having the rest forgiven? I know in general these loans are not forgiven and I am pretty sure this is pure fantasy, but thought I'd ask the hive mind if there is any kind of precedent for this.

Thank you!!!
