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

- underfill_uma — while im here severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question 18:20
- cagri_curious — ok so i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can 18:37
- slow.taper — the burps started at 0.25 and not before, has anyone else had that 20:39
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline, still working it out
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
magnesium
dose day = d0
0.25mg nothing much
0.50mg d1-d2 mild
1.00mg d1-d3 moderate
1.70mg d1-d2 moderate, d4 fine
2.40mg d1 rough, gone by d3ok so coming back after 25 months off: do the side effects reset
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
same at week 3
update on the earlier thing if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
while im here severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
ok so i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
let the swab dry
that settles
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it
coming back to this if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
is the nausea meant to be worst around day 7 or is that just me
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
it got better for me
please get seen
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
has anyone had a side effect that got worse at a lower dose
fibre before pills
the burps started at 0.25 and not before, has anyone else had that
im at week 2 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation, i think
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern
