Started at 0.25 for 4 weeks then increased 0.5 for 4 weeks. Now at 1. No side effects aside from constipation. Doing compound with B12. I am under the care of a PA who specializes in nutrition. So watching the diet and exercise. Weight is coming off very slow!

This is the same exact protocol I am on and it is very slow.

My doctor started me on 0.25 and incorporated B12 in my doses to help with nausea.

Thank u for this info :) very helpful . I start .25 today

Is anyone on here actually diabetic and obese? With multiple auto-immune diseases and hypersensitivity to meds and high blood pressure??? Or any of those? I have watched so many excellent videos Dr Stirrett's as well.. but no one is mentioning any of those health issues. Where are all of the videos have been helpful, I think Dr Stewart's has been the most helpful in short order! Thanks ahead of time for your answers, and I value all of them!

So good to hear...I just started at 0.25mg, once a week for 4 weeks and only if i feel okay do i go up to 0.5mg after 4 weeks!

What about the pill????

I started my first dose last night

How's it going now?

What do you think about rybelsus?

Dr Stirrett, can you take a decongestant on Semaglutide? I’m having sinus issues and didn’t want to have an interaction?

You can still dial it back even in a 1 mg pen right? I do that with clicking less

Just received my semaglutide in the mail - looking forward to starting on this journey. Appreciate that you and my primary seem to be in step with one another - she wants me to do 0.25mg for 4 weeks, then up to 0.5 after that.

@@RBNnina I was on 0.25 for 4, then 0.5 for 4...now I was on 1mg for 8 weeks and I just bumped to 1.5mg this week. Worth mention I'm also exploring cagrilintide at it's lowest dose as a stack - and it has flat our MURDERED food noise. Sema is great for me metabolically at this dose...but the cagril REALLY shuts off the food noise in a big way.

@@GeekyMitch wow ! Thank u so much. This gives me great insight. I’ve heard of cagrlintide but don’t know much about it. Sending good vibes 🙌🏽to u & your journey

Also to add to my previous question -- nothing has been said about taking insulins along with this if you're diabetic. I take toujeo daily and trulicity 1X per week with diarrhea already. 😢

I am taking rybelsus and seeing great result. What’s the best procedure to quit after a few months?

I love it too

How about Tirzepatide dose? I was on Ozempic for over 14 months and only lost 24lbs. I now am on compound and just my 2nd week. I hope this works better. I am a diabetic, but my ins doesn't cover Mounjaro.

That seems to be my track record on any diet I have done so it's my biggest fear. (Aside from bad side effects)... I'm not starting mine till I have one more meeting with my doctor to go over all of these things so that I can start out more confident.
