Zepbound5mgWeek 6

Does dose increase settle down after a Zepbound dose increase?

This is one of those questions that feels too specific for a quick search. I am week 6 on Zepbound 5mg, currently around 273 lb, and the thing bugging me is dose increase. I am trying not to spiral because the rest of the medication has been manageable. My main tags right now would be constipation, protein, dose increase. I am trying to keep protein and water steady, but I do not know if I should change timing or just give this week some space. Was there one habit that made the biggest difference?

That part is so real. I started writing down shot day plus day two because I kept forgetting the pattern. I am week 1 on Mounjaro 2.5mg, so my timing may be different. The boring answer worked for me.

This is the kind of detail I wish I had earlier. Electrolytes did more than I expected, especially before lunch. I am week 7 on Mounjaro 5mg, so my timing may be different. I would not ignore it if it keeps escalating.
