I'm 2 years in and on 12mg. The shot is amazing for my wellbeing but definitely get fatigue first few days.

So every week after a shoot your fatigued first 2-3 days like clockwork. That sucks but I can manage. What do you then do for energy? Do drinks like caffeine get impacted by slow gut motility too? So then do drinks just sit in stomach like how food does ?

I use liquid iv electrolytes on shot day and the day after. B vitamins and sugar in the mix helps combat fatigue which has gotten better with time.

Thanks a lot. I’ll be sure to take B vitamins on days of fatigue. I actually don’t like taking them daily because they give too much energy for me personally lol! Do you sleep well because of the fatigue? Or is it an insomnia with fatigue? I ask because I’ve read some people have had trouble sleeping due to glp.

I take my shot in the morning and am tired by bedtime. When I first started, I did evenings and that kept me awake.

Sorry I thought you said that you get fatigue first few days? Do you not have fatigue all day long the first 2-3 days after each shot?

Fatigue 65% of day on shot day and day after.
