Been on it for about 16 months or so. Started out at .25 then .5 then 1mg over about a 6 week titration.
Lost 70-80 pounds, from 335 to 260 in under a year. The fat just melted off of me. I’m talking about a pound a day at some points, it was other worldly. People that hadn’t seen me because of Covid thought I had bariatric surgery. My dr has told me I have had the most dramatic response of the hundreds of people she’s treated with it in her practice.
The first month was difficult from a side effect perspective, nausea and constipation were the worst side effects but subsided after about a month.
For six months I essentially had no appetite and when I did eat I could eat maybe 1/4 of the amount I would have eaten in the past before I felt full.
Weight loss definitely plateaued after about 8 months or so. I am on what I would describe as a maintenance dosage of 1mg a week right now. I am going to experiment with a 2mg a week dosage and see what happens and if that doesn’t work I will probably titration down to a .5 mg dosage to be used long term. 6’4 height.
I am definitely one of the outlier miracle type responders to it.
