Tirzepatide: is injection site reaction normal around week 19?

Quick question from a train platform snack bag. This is the kind of thing that does not show up neatly in a search result. I am week 19 on Mounjaro 10mg, around 225 lb right now, and injection site reaction is the part I am trying to troubleshoot. I was fine in theory and scattered in real life, which is usually where this medication teaches me something. I am considering choosing the boring option before I got too tired to decide, but I do not know if I am overcorrecting. Has anyone else found that injection site reaction is more about timing than willpower?

This is the kind of detail I wish I had earlier. I started writing down shot day plus day two because I kept forgetting the pattern. I am week 2 on Zepbound 2.5mg, so my timing may be different. My main issue has been nausea. I would not ignore it if it keeps escalating.

This is the kind of detail I wish I had earlier. I had better luck when I stopped trying to eat one normal-sized meal. I am week 22 on Semaglutide 2.4mg, so my timing may be different. I am saving this thread.
