[quote=Anonymous]This is OP reporting back. I am happy to share that my side effects have reduced dramatically. Week 2 side effects were unpleasant, but certainly not as bad as week 1. I also had a splitting headache the day after the Week 2 injection - not sure if that is related or not. Spent week 2 with relatively low-level nausea. Week 3 was my best so far. The side effects seemed to pretty much vanish and even the nausea was very, very mild. Week 4, I've had some low level nausea (more than week 3?). I'll say that at this point, I think of this less as a "miracle drug," and more as a different hard way to lose weight. I've lost 6 lbs over almost 4 weeks, which is pretty remarkable for me (I am short!).

I did a lot of Reddit surfing and made a few adjustments. I don't know if they were the reason for the change, or if it was a result of my body acclimating.
- Changed injection site to thigh beginning in Week 2 (week 1 was in my stomach)
- Began using one electrolyte packet each day (I typically drink a lot of water anyway)
- Tried really hard to increase my protein. I have a "rough goal" of getting 30 mg each meal. I dont always get there.[/quote]
