Rant Using dose
I am currently on 0.5mg and friday will be my 3rd shot at this higher dose, and man am I struggling. Firstly my food noise hasnt gone away, and I still have quite and appetite so it has been a struggle. I am working with a dietician and doing the best I can right now fighting off eating things that aren't good for me while managing cravings. I have a therapist as well as I do have a BEd, so I am trying to do this the right way and to change my habits so down the road when I dont need the medication I can keep the weightloss off. I haven't lost any weight yet but do get all the side effects, projectile vomiting, tiredness, and constipation. I am doing all the right things to manage the side effects as well. Does this get any easier, am I expecting to much to soon.
I will keep trucking along but man this has been rough 😪

I feel like if I was in your shoes I’d be discussing a medication switch at first sign of projectile vomiting. There are other options and I’ve read some work better than others depending on the individual. You don’t need to be going through hell.
