Archive lookup: tare_weight first appears in this channel on 2024-12-16.
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing, i think
sorry youre having a rough one
same at week 3
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline, for what its worth
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
[edited]eat more
sorry to jump in if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption, i have it written down somewhere
hiccups. every single time. why
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
day two is the worst
protein

the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me, from memory
dont push through
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at

what did your gallbladder symptoms actually feel like before it got diagnosed
how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation, not advice obviously
has anyone had reflux specifically get worse rather than better
week 16 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle

*PeptideMeter not the other one
right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free, thats one data point
everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle
my injection site itched for three days, normal

| 1 | water, properly, all day | 3 days |
| 2 | soluble fibre | 4 days |
| 3 | magnesium | 3 days |
| 4 | stool softener | 3 days |
| 5 | pharmacist | now |
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
