So I'm three months in sa tirze journey and grabe the differences from what I expected versus what actually happened. Started at 2.5mg in January, moved up to 5mg after four weeks. Biggest surprise? The energy dip wasn't from the medication itself but from eating way less than I realized, I had to actually set reminders to eat enough protein kasi I'd forget meals completely. Also wasn't prepared for how much my relationship with food would shift, parang I finally have space to think before eating instead of just reacting to cravings. If I could do it over I'd have tracked my protein intake from day one and maybe started multivitamins earlier since my food variety dropped. Curious if others had similar timeline experiences or if your first few months looked totally different?

Started at 0.5mg in early January and I'm now at 5mg. Down 9kg so far which is great but what caught me off guard is how long it took for my appetite to actually change. First month was almost nothing, second month I noticed I could skip breakfast without thinking about it, and by month three the food noise finally shut up. I also didnt expect the fatigue in weeks 2-4 of each dose increase, that part nobody really talks about. Curious if other people had this same slow build or if some of you felt effects right away. Also wondering if I should've started documenting my meals from day one because now I'm trying to remember what normal portion sizes used to look like for me 😅
