Highlights from this day
  • freeze_thaw — genuine question, at what point does this stop being tolerable and start being a reason to stop the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here,… 22:17
  • freeze_thaw — i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free, ymmv 22:18
  • fibre_first — week 9 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle 22:55
  • freeze_thaw — a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating, your mileage will differ 23:58

if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line

FT

water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order

genuine question, at what point does this stop being tolerable and start being a reason to stop

ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at

taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back

i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can

is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea

NW

update from 5 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely

ok so powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it

ok so whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything

FT

eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me

NW

right so i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern

FF

week 9 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle

FT

escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

NW

dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move, ill dig out the number

update on the earlier thing is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing

FT

the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
