17 months in and fatigue is still the thing I get wrong

PSAbranch of 11 comments

Check-in as promised in the title: 17 months in and fatigue is still the thing I get wrong. The relevant figures are 17 months, and they come from the same log I have kept the whole time. Reflux was the one that got me. Stopped eating in the three hours before bed and it went from nightly to almost never. Held the…

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.

How long has it been going on for now?

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.

Hair shedding after significant weight loss is a telogen effect that follows the rate of loss.

Agreed, with the caveat that "usually settles" is not "always settles" and the exceptions should still get asked about properly.

Severe, or unpleasant? They are genuinely different questions and the answers diverge.

Adding to this — holding the dose rather than stepping is the option people forget they have.

nausea for the first eight days after each step, then nothing, every single time. Predictable enough that I started planning my week around it.

the food noise going quiet is the effect people came for, and early fullness is the toll for the first fortnight

That symptom is not the one being described upthread. Two different things with similar names and the answers are not interchangeable.

About c/sideeffects

Side-effect experience and management, with a strong bias toward the ones that are common and boring (nausea, constipation, reflux, fatigue, sulphur burps) and a hard line on the ones that are not (severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, jaundice, vision changes). This community is not a substitute for urgent care and the mods will say so bluntly.

c/sideeffects rules
  1. Severe or escalating abdominal pain is an urgent-care question, not a forum question. We will lock those threads with a pointer to help.
  2. Describe your dose, your week number and your titration speed — otherwise nobody can help.
  3. No diagnosing strangers. Share what happened to you.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
