I am about 25lbs down but still struggling with hitting my daily protein numbers. I have been drinking a Fairlife shake every morning which is 30 grams of protein. I don't have any adverse reactions to it. I am wondering if I can sometimes have 2 shakes a day, as adding more food is hard with feeling nauseous. It's the easiest thing I intake with the least side effects, but I'm new to the world of protein shakes.
I have 10 more days remaining on my scheduled 9mg dose. Due to the hard-hitting side effects I experienced when I titrated up to 9mg, I decided to remain on 9mg for an additional month before having to deal with possible side effects from the 25mg dose.
I have 2 questions (looking for experience, I chat with my provider of course):
•Does remaining on a dose for an additional month make titrating up to the next dose any easier when it comes to side effects on the higher dose?
•Would it be beneficial to utilize a zipper approach once I have the 25mg in hand, by taking a 9mg one day and then the 25mg the next day, continuing that pattern until my 9mg is done? I'm wondering if that could help ease me into the higher dosage in regard to side effects.
