I am paying out of pocket as prior authorization was denied. Luckily my family doctor, who had first recommended Zepbound, was willing to prescribe a 5mg pen so I can click count and keep the per week cost down.
I started Saturday with my first 2.5mg dose. I have felt no difference. If anything, I am hyper fixated on food and hunger cues, trying to figure out if there has been any change.
Wondering if anyone else didn't notice anything with their first 2.5 dose, but did feel the effects of subsequent 2.5 shots?
I only have 25-30lbs to lose. I am really hoping I can do this with a lower dose, so I can stretch out pens!
I have been tracking my nutrition (especially protein and fibre), drinking lots of water, strength training x2 a week, and getting in some longer walks -- and will continue this on Zep.
