2 days late for jab but suppression so high!

I'm 20 weeks into MJ, 29 pound down and have had one week so far of 7.5mg. my usual jab day is a Friday but I deliberately missed it on Friday as I was going away for the weekend. I'm not back and still haven't done it so it's been 9 days since my last jab but the suppression is so high it's a bit scary! It wasn't like this th first few days on 7.5 but seems to have kicked in from around day 6 which is odd as it should be a 5 day half life.

has anyone experienced similar? For the last 20 weeks on mj I've found it usually kicks in around 12 hours post jab and then there's a massive drop on day 5, day 6 I'm counting the hours till jab day then day 7 jab day isn't too bad as I know it's jab day but now it's day 9 and I'm absolutely stuffed 😂

Could also be the weather as heat makes everyone tired and less hungry! I find it kicks in after 2 days for me and on the higher doses kicks in after a day and lasts all week until I start tolerating it. They do say the ideal dose lasts all week. Ive been on 15mg for 5 weeks and still struggling to eat daily, maybe manage 800-1000 cals max and thats forced! Managed 350 cals today so far and its 7pm.

Possibly the heatwave adding in an extra layer there. I usually eat 3 meals a day and snacks (I am nearly 6 months on MJ) but today, I just didn't want to eat until around 3:30pm. I generally go off food and struggle to eat if it's above 25c anyway, but MJ will make this worse
