I had my first dose last week of 0.25mg and by day 3, I could notice a difference in my appetite. I haven't actually told anyone I'm doing this, not even my husband. Thankfully no side effects so far. Maybe a little nausea but nothing too noticeable.

The first dose surprised me, I was terrified for the needle but I didn't even feel it and going in was fine. I chose a fatty part of my stomach. There is still a bruise but it's a yellow bruise now.

I've just done my second dose, chose my leg this time as that would be an easier bruise to play off and this has come up immediately.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this?

I haven't told anyone from worry of being judged. I'm sure my husband wouldn't care, but I feel like I'm cheating using it although it is helping.

Evening snacks were my biggest downfall and I've totally stopped, it's amazing.

I am on mounjaro and I have had that bump once, I think its where I have not put the needle in deep enough. The meds will still work but it will take a few days for the bubble of meds to absorb.

@ShmoigelAh maybe! The bump is now red but has gone down a lot, looks more like a mosquito bite so I'm less concerned about it.

Glad to hear it is going well with not too many side effects, I am going to change from MJ and a bit nervous, so good to hear!
