Power through on 5mg or drop back down dose?
Hi all, I’m on week 11 I think of MJ(SW 13 stone 5, CW 12 stone 2 TW 10 stone 12) So far side effects have been minimum, I’ve lost approximately 1 stone 5lb so weight loss has been steady.
Week 1-8 I stayed on 2.5mg
In week 9 I decided to go up to 5mg as food noise and hunger had been subtley building week 6-8.
I took my first 5mg dose week 9, had a few days of tiredness and nausea but it passed.
My week 10 dose, I have found the appetite suppression sky high. As in wasn’t hungry once in 7 days and struggling to finish a meal. This was even on day 7 and day 8( I was due a jab Friday just passed but was away for weekend so delayed jab to today) I didn’t like it and felt very uncomfortable struggling to get calories in
Due to jab today and seeing mixed advice online. Some say to drop back down to 3.3mg or even 2.5mg. Others say hunger suppression is a side effect I need my body to get used to on the doubling of a dose and to power through.
I only have 1.5 stone more to lose and in no rush but also nervous going back to 2.5mg and wasting money moreso whilst still struggling to lose weight.
Any advice or thoughts?
Edit- hunger did start back last night and this morning which is at least a comfort
