Urgh it’s like being pregnant, food smells revolting and some foods taste this revolting taste too! It makes me feel sick.

Im only on first pen of 5mg and ive lost a bit of weight but I'm just not really eating.

I want to be able to enjoy healthy food - does this smell/sickness improve if you've had it?

I would go back down to 2.5 if you can't eat and have strong side effects. Or you mean you started straight with 5?

I have not suffered the smell issues but I stayed on 2.5mg for 10 months so far and am able to enjoy good healthy food. 5mg might be too much?

It was the same on 2.5 - I thought this month might be better.
