Heading into maintenance - spacing shots further out?
Hello! I’ve been on Zepbound since July and reached my first goal of 128lbs about 2 months ago. I’m now hovering near 120 and I am good with where I am. Spoke with my doctor and she said to start moving shot out to 10-14 days apart (as opposed to 7 days). I’m worried that I’ll get awful side effects (diarrhea etc) if I immediately go to 14 days between shots due to so much being out of my system by then. For those that maintain in this way (every 10-14 days) did you slowly start moving shot further apart (8 days, then 9 and finally 10, for example)? I’m 5mg. Still losing at this dose!
I delayed my shot once in April for 12 days and had horrible stomach issues thereafter (2 days after resuming). I’ve been stable and fine since. But I also don’t want to lose anymore weight.
Just looking for experiences and ideas from others maintaining in a similar way.
