starting semiglutide before int'l trip

[Anonymous]

Just ordered, should be here next week (fingers crossed). So by my estimation, I'll start week 1 right around Memorial Day, week 2 first week of January, then I'll be traveling for ten days, which goes into my week 3.

Should I take my week 3 dosage early? Pack it for my trip? It's compounded semaglutide starter pack from gobymeds, so I'll be on 0.25 the first four weeks.

I wouldn't! You don't know what side effects you'll have. You might be one of the unlucky ones who needs to stay close to a toilet for a few weeks.

Even if you don't have any, your appetite will be affected and for me anyway, food is a big part of the enjoyment of international travel.

In your shoes, I'd start when you get home.

Start when you get home. When my husband was on it, he sh!t like crazy, his stomach hurt, he was tired and mentally, he had a lot to deal with (still wanting to mentally eat but physically could not). 3 weeks is not going to set you back. Go on vacation, enjoy yourself and the food, then start week 1 when you get back.

Okay, that makes sense!
