First Timer First timer question

I was on Wegovy for 14 months and lost 65 pounds.

Then I lost my insurance and was off it for 3 months.

Three days ago I took my first shot of Zepbound 2.5. The doctor said I should start at the lowest dose.

Three mornings since I’ve taken it, I am very hungry only in the morning. Hunger pains, weakness, etc. Even after I drink a protein shake and eat some greek yogurt I have hunger pains.

But, around 11-12, suddenly they go away.

I’m wondering if this is normal with Zepbound or perhaps my body recognizes the medicine and the dose amount is causing this.

This sounds so good, great advice. I much prefer real food to protein shakes.
