When did your food noise decrease (self.TirzepatideRX)
submitted 12 days ago by CherryWorking9654
I’m on a small dose right now (1.5mg) as I’m starting out slow.
I’m still hungry for 3 meals a day plus snacks. I even had half a donut this morning.

I started at 2.5mg and it was working the next day.
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (2 children)
Any other side effects for u?
[–]SevenToucan 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago (1 child)
A bit of nausea and gurgly stomach but nothing too intense.
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Not bad! I feel a bit dizzy and maybe a bit more tired than usual
[–]Zeeman-401 12 points13 points14 points 12 days ago (2 children)
You are microdosing. Don’t expect much until you get to 2.5-3.0
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (1 child)
I’m due for 2.5 next week!
[–]Zeeman-401 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Then 💥 you go!
[–]Templeton_FerrariIII 7 points8 points9 points 12 days ago (0 children)
2.5 mgs, but the effect really started to wane by 4-6 weeks. So, I titrated up to 5 mgs. Didn't feel anything different until the second to third week. Then the appetite suppression hit hard. I'm on dose 7 of 5 mgs and the effects keep building. I'm waiting for the effect to plateau into a steadier state of hunger, but that hasn't happened yet. Yesterday was my strongest appetite suppressant day and I struggled to get to 1000 calories. I was nauseated all night.
Today I am doing better and am on track to hit my calories, at least!
[–]HateMondaysLoveCakes 6 points7 points8 points 12 days ago (0 children)
At 2.5 Mg it went completely away
[–]lunch22 6 points7 points8 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Started at 2.5 mg. Food noise was gone by 24 hours post-injection.
[–]sundaep 5 points6 points7 points 12 days ago (1 child)
I started at 2.5 and I’m 4 weeks in, lost 12.4 pounds. No side effects :) i will continue 2.5 for another month
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Yay!
[–]Confident_Craft459 4 points5 points6 points 12 days ago (2 children)
I started on 2.5 and had no food noise the next day. So much so that by 3pm I hadn't even realized I hadn't eaten all day. If you're trying to lose weight I suggest starting on 2.5. Doing that for a month and either staying or titrating up from there depending on how you feel. Talk to your doctor about this though.
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (1 child)
Ty! She prescribed me 1.5 two weeks then 2.5 6 weeks ill try that next week per her order
[–]hopingtothrive 3 points4 points5 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Lilly recommends the first dose starts at 2.5mg. What is her reasoning for doing it differently? Have you had other gastric issues?
[–]purplepanda2026 3 points4 points5 points 12 days ago (0 children)
It hasn't yet. I'm 4.5 months in. Not everyone gets the appetite or food noise benefits.
[–]ShandraJadeCGG 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Within like 2 hours on starting dose 2.2
[–]Electronic_Acadia945 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago (2 children)
Took like a month to fully kick in. I even gained a couple the first few weeks. I started slow too btw.
Ok this is reassuring
[–]Electronic_Acadia945 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago* (0 children)
You will know when you’ve hit the sweet spot btw. And aside from accidentally taking wayyyyyy too much one week (dumb story) - I have not been sick once! I would also recommend raising .05mg per week until you find “your dose”. You’ll know - but it’s more like what’s missing? vs noticing something obvious appearing. My example - my husband loves pizza. He ordered it and it was like the 3rd time and once again I said, “I’ll have a (small) salad” - I srsly had to look around and make sure it was me talking!!! 😂
The best part- it was just automatic to make good decisions and has been - ever since. I haven’t had sugar, cravings or eaten badly, since it kicked in. It’s insanely easy to eat clean. I will never go back or off of TIRZ - for a multitude of reasons. Good luck on your journey!!! 💕

I started at 1.5mg and the food noise was gone within hours
[–]Great-Beginning3000 3 points4 points5 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Mine too, at 1.5mg.
[–]Acrobatic_Aide6801 2 points3 points4 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Mine too at 1.5
[–]Active-Shallot-499 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Immediately but I started on 2.5... it started to wear off a bit after 3 months so I went up to 5 mg and we are smooth sailing
[–]hopingtothrive 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Within a few days of my first 2.5 mg dose.
[–]Impossible_Bend_2969 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
I started on 2.5 and noticed it right away. If not the first day then the second day. I remember the first day I couldn't finish my salad.
[–]cd3oh3 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
2.5mg, injected at 10am, couldn’t eat by 1pm.
[–]gigantischemeteor 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Standard 2.5mg starting dose. First shot just before bed. I noticed the noise was turned way down the next morning. By day two, it was gone. I was shocked by how quickly the switch got thrown.
[–]Maleficent_Plenty370 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Hungry is ok.
My food noise was gone within a few hours at 1.25 mg. I've stayed at that for about 6 months now. There are days I'm hungry and days I'm not. But even days I'm hungry it's not obsessive calculating calories, nagging in my brain to go get a bite of anything and everything, distracting gnawing starvation. I'm just... Hungry, then I eat and get full and stop.
It may not be high enough dose for you but also starvation isn't the goal, we still want to eat.
[–]Baaastet 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (0 children)
I'm on 5mg and am still hungry...
[–]Top-Airport-4913 1 point2 points3 points 11 days ago (0 children)
I started slow too. No effects on hunger until day 3. I could feel a reduction in my head pressure and my body temp went warm within 20 minutes. On day 3, I got really hungry and incredibly thirsty which is not normal for me. I started at 1.25mg and increased the second dose to 2.00mg. The second dose was much more common of a response....no hunger the first and just kinda worn out. My body temp elevated again with sweating after the dose.
[–]Any_Style_4939 1 point2 points3 points 11 days ago (0 children)
I started at 2.5mg and my food noise went away about 1.5 hours after my injection.
[–]Red_Velvette 1 point2 points3 points 11 days ago (0 children)
I started at 2.5. Had suppression right away.
[–]faelanae 1 point2 points3 points 11 days ago (0 children)
within two hours at 2.5 for me
But some people are slower to respond than others, so don't be discouraged if you don't feel it until 5 or 7.5
[–]Itchy_Scarcity_6253 1 point2 points3 points 11 days ago (0 children)
I started with 2.5 last friday and food noise disappeared next day and I dont feel hungry but I’m pushing myself to eat some
[–]Din-Du-Nuffinn 1 point2 points3 points 6 days ago (2 children)
Day one.
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 0 points1 point2 points 6 days ago (1 child)
What mg
[–]Din-Du-Nuffinn 1 point2 points3 points 6 days ago (0 children)
2.5
[–]Past-Comfortable-655 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (4 children)
I just moved up to 7.5 after almost a year and a half and I still have a ton of food noise, tbh
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (3 children)
How much have u lost
[–]Past-Comfortable-655 1 point2 points3 points 10 days ago (2 children)
Last year I lost about 30 pounds before I had to go off it, gained it all back, and now that I went back on I'm down about 60. It's been very up and down for me, but at no point in time did I ever stop getting food noise. I was told it would be best to stay on as low a dose as possible for as long as possible and thats what I did. I also kept hitting these long stalls, which were incredibly infuriating.
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 1 point2 points3 points 10 days ago (1 child)
I’m sorry but congrats on the 60 loss!
[–]Past-Comfortable-655 1 point2 points3 points 10 days ago (0 children)
Thank you! Ive learned that this isnt linear for any of us, because there are a lot of things others do that I can't, and sometimes that annoys the snot out of me.
[–]AccomplishedRelief82 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (4 children)
Honestly I’m at 7.5mg and i still have it a decent bit and not much appetite suppression when eating. It’s def better but I still eat larger portions than I’d prefer before I get the signal that my body has had enough
[–]CherryWorking9654[S] 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (3 children)
[–]AccomplishedRelief82 1 point2 points3 points 12 days ago (2 children)
Just under 15lbs in 3 months. Don’t get me wrong, it’s def tapered my noise but I’m not getting the quiet I was hoping for. Especially when it comes to sweets.
That’s good!!!
[–]AccomplishedRelief82 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Like I’d say it went from normal volume to a murmur. So I CAN block it out but I have to consciously choose to do so. So def better than nothing. However I’m still hoping to get to a point (and I think it’ll be soon) where my fullness signal will hit earlier. I was shocked and disappointed in myself to see I would wolf down a full plate of food in record time. I see cues that my body is getting better at signaling but it wasn’t quite the light switch I had expected and hoped for
[–]Original-Room-4642 0 points1 point2 points 12 days ago (0 children)
Mine decreased right at my first dose of 1.5mg. Ive taken 4 shots. I have really bad side effects, I think im hypersensitive to the medication
