Interesting.

Yesterday, I took my weekly dose. I changed the injection site from my thigh to my stomach. I didn't think there would be a marked difference in how I feel between the weeks, but so far there is. It could be that last week I hit muscle, which would explain the terrible thigh pain and immediate fatigue. This time I injected into a very fatty area (stomach) and I noticed it took hours for me to experience fatigue. Also, today I didn't wake up with huge welts under my eyes and arms compared to last week. And I noticed my stools are looser, compared to last week where I was severely constipated. Appetite suppression and the full feeling is only about 50% compared to last week, but my blood sugar levels are great--no crazy dips or spikes that lead to over eating.

It could very well be my body getting used to the med since it's only the starting dose at 0.25 mg.

Whatever it is, this week I have the opportunity to start retraining my brain to accept less food and exercise greater eating/food discipline without having the medication do the heavy lifting.
