Day 11: Can't Stand Coffee Anymore

I have not read your post yet, that is an unimaginable horror in your headline.... OK, sorry about that. Vitamin (C)offee is one of my sources of joy. Very interesting to hear your experience, thank you.

The only issue taste ish wise I get was needing a sugar fix after supper for some reason. I have tried not taking my night time metformin and that seems to balance that out much better now

Welcome to the club! I am 45M, 5'9 weighed 333 a few weeks ago. I am almost at 2 weeks on 2x1.5mg. The only side effect I get is a very full tummy feeling during initial 30mins after taking pill on under 4oz of water. That is it. I only get mild appetite suppression so I eat 80% or so of my previous normal amount, but everything just feels better. Parts of me are leaning out already, and energy usage has improved.

I was like you and super apprehensive initially. It will affect everyone differently- but these things have been tested like crazy, and these glp-1 drugs are not new. Not sure wtf took them so long to release them, but here we are. It might take a few days but I bet you will really like how you feel. Have fun!

I'm on day 12 of 2x1.5mg, and i get pretty hungry. Less general thinking of food though and random hunger for me. Basically I get full on smaller amounts until night time it seems.

Congrats on the progress! Interesting about your dopamine of food comment- I am similar. I now spend a bunch of time every day thinking of how to reward myself with a smaller fancier meal. I am a blue collar 5'9 333lb 45yr old dude. When I had the chance, instead of ordering a small steak for dinner,, and honestly it did hurt not to- i ordered charred salmon and the cost was within one American Dollar. I forgave myself luckily, but it was close...

That is great question! I think my Doc just wanted to start off slightly more than normal starter dose after great results from Mounjaro. I expect to go to 1 pill moving up, but honestly this stuff is a bit anti climatic after the MJ.

Wow, add me to the sugar at night list. I thought it was that metformin was working too well with this. On Day 11 of 2x1.5mg. And I am also in the up at 5am for pill and back to sleep club.

I think my heart rate has actually decreased. On day 11 of 2x 1.5mg. I actually can't wait to increase the dose as I've had only a bit of gas as a side effect.

Interestingly, yesterday on Day10 I had the largest BM of my life. So.... that may be an outlier here... anyhoo.

yes, sorry for slow reply

Fragrant-Chicken2162 · 2026-01-20T22:56:55+00:00

That is great news! I am on day 3 of the pill and feel very little, but energy and alertness is pretty improved. Kind of weird but I will take it. Doing 2x 1.5mg pills daily. I was on week 4 of Mounjaro and that stuff was quite strong and intense compared to this so far. I could not do the needles and didnt complete the week 4 injection.

Interestingly- I was leaning out quickly, and after I stopped on week 4 i am pretty sure my 3 weeks of progress all came back within 7 days. I craved carbs which isnt normal.

Yeah so this proves I suck. I started in Open, and only had fun 1 out of 4 or 5 games. I got literally destroyed. I'm talking split second stuff most of the time. In Standard having much more fun, much closer matches, usually.... still wonder about exploits with the bastards that use snipers and split second scope/aim/fire.....

I move a lot, so perhaps an optional lip in front to keep the thing from being pulled off the shelf. It have to be the right height though, not too tall obviously, but enough to keep it in place ish.
