[Results] 92 weeks, 29kg, and heart rate was the hard part
92 weeks, 29kg, and heart rate was the hard part, and the part I actually want to talk about is at the bottom.
Since the title puts numbers in the shop window: 92 weeks and 29kg.
Nothing in this thread is medical advice, including this comment. I am describing a mechanism, not telling anybody what to do about their own week.
A symptom that begins the day after the shot and fades by day four tracks the exposure curve. One that appears at random in week 16 probably does not, and that is worth saying to a clinician rather than to us.
I will update this if the picture changes rather than quietly leaving it up.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Most of the common complaints trace back to slowed gastric emptying — early fullness, reflux, nausea after a large or fatty meal. That is also why meal size and speed change the experience more than anything else.
Hair shedding after significant weight loss is a telogen effect that follows the rate of loss. It is not specific to these compounds and it resolves.
Pushback: you changed the dose, the meal timing and the training in the same fortnight, so the attribution is guesswork.
hair shedding follows the weight loss, not the drug, and it stops
How long after a step up did this start?
The effect on gastric emptying is most pronounced early and attenuates with continued dosing, which is the mechanism behind the "it settles at a stable dose" pattern the whole board reports.
Flair set to Question. Also the standing reminder that nothing on this board is medical advice.
reflux at night, try not eating in the three hours before bed
the first fortnight after a step is the worst of it, then it settles
nobody warns you about how much of this is timing rather than dose

This is the shape almost everybody here describes, and it is the single most reassuring thing in the thread.
write down when it starts and stops, the pattern is the useful part
Nobody warned me about reflux and I would have liked the warning. It was not dangerous, it was just deeply unpleasant and completely unexpected.
Constipation is mostly reduced intake plus reduced fluid, not a direct effect. That is why the boring fibre and water answer keeps working.
The fatigue turned out to be that I was eating about a third of what I thought I was. Tracked it for a week and the mystery evaporated.
Not convinced by that mechanism. Slowed gastric emptying explains fullness and reflux; it does not explain what you are describing.
Mine settled at week 9 and has not come back since, across two more steps.
Severe or persistent abdominal pain sits outside the pattern this board can usefully discuss. The honest answer there is that it needs someone who can examine you.
holding a dose an extra month is a legitimate answer to bad tolerance
Careful with the supplement recommendation. There is no evidence for it here and the mechanism you are proposing does not hold.
