Greetings from a sunny corner of Wales!

Friday night was when I took my first dose.

, 0.5 mg

Saturday - I had a reasonably large breakfast around 10 am, then had zero desire to eat for the rest of the day. I was at work, and normally I get hungry and eat at set times during the day. It's more of a habit than anything - 12 pm is lunch, so my body tells me it's time to eat...3 pm is break, time for a chocolate bar...it's more of a mental clock thing that sets off the hunger feeling. None of that happened. I ate again at 7 pm just to get some protein in, but the portion was half of what I'd usually shovel in.

Sunday - at work again, so I had breakfast at 10 am once more. I felt hungry during the day and picked at chocolate and junk I had in my work bag. When I got home I was hungry and wanted snacks, but I held off until tea time. I ate normally, though the portion was a bit smaller than usual.

Monday - that's today, and I'm not working. I woke at 10 am (I really needed to catch up on sleep!) I grabbed the last of my chocolate at 12.30 pm just to have something, and now I'm unsure whether I could eat again. My appetite is definitely a little suppressed, but only very very slightly.

I had planned to wait until Friday for my next 0.5 mg dose, but I'm a big guy and I'm considering taking another 0.5 mg tonight, essentially splitting a 1 mg dose across the week, then dosing again on Friday. Friday's dose isn't decided yet (possibly 0.75 mg). I'm aware of titrating up too fast because I really don't want to go through feeling awful, or having diarrhoea.

I'll keep posting updates here since I don't have permission to post anywhere else yet, but I'm eager to document my experience...even if nobody wants to read it 🤣
