From 2.5mg to 5mg

[threeeggsontoast]

What was your experience moving from
2.5mg to 5mg and did you notice a real
fifference in terms of hunger or suppression etc?

I’m on W2 and I’m using the Shotsy app to make a guess as to the med levels in my system and while I know 2.5mg is just a ‘starter dose’, intrigued to see how things changed for people when they moved to 5mg.

I lost 4lbs in my first week and this week so far, 0.5 of a lb but that’s probably because my period was due yesterday (peri, so it tends to turn up about a week late at the mo). I’m in a calorie deficit - usually around 1200 cals a day and 2-3l of water.

I stayed on 2.5mg for several months because it worked for me. Moved up to 5mg when the suppression started to change.

At 5mg I had more side effects. Sulphur burps and diarrhoea every other week. This improved after a couple of months. Suppression kicked in again but not much more than I was getting when 2.5mg was working

I've had my third injection of 5mg, I feel like I'm injecting water
It is doing nothing for me. I had sulpher burps with my first injection but that faded about 24hr later

I don't get suppression until 10mg, we are all different

I felt like this when I moved to 7.5mg. It took 4-5 weeks for it to work. I didnt feel anything. Most of my weight dropped off on this dose. I'd been on MJ for around 9 months before I moved to this dose
