How long after the first injection did you notice appetite suppression? I just restarted with 1.5 mg in a single shot and I’d like to understand how long I should expect to wait for a reasonable suppression. What was your experience?
 
I just started with 1mg yesterday morning. I feel like it's already working a little – I was binging on carbs before, like all the time. That's been better yesterday and today. I'm still snacking out of boredom, though. But I chose more protein-based food instinctively. And if such a little dose is already doing SOMETHING, I'm hopeful there will be strong effects soon enough and I will stop snacking completely.
 
If you 'restarted' then your best information was your experience the first time. Everyone is different. For me, it was a couple of hours after my first 2.5mg tirz.

Did you start Tirz or Reta?
 
I'm on Reta and I started at 1mg. I noticed a slight change in appetite after a few days but really felt the appetite change around week 2. I also Titrated up to 2mg for week 2.
 
My first shot ever was a Mounjaro pen and I felt it straight away! It was like putting on noise cancelling headphones for the first time. My mind just quietened. Then I started feeling a rush. I could feel it coursing through my veins. I was nervous too I guess. I found out later that I might have been a hyper-responder. This meant I was able to stay on 2.5 forever and 18months later I'm still only on 5mg. I haven't tried grey tirz yet but hopefully will soon if my order arrives.
 
With reta..hm. appetite supression after about 2 months, when I pinned 6mg.

With this I learned i am a hypo responder for all peptides and meds.
 
Oh Tirz (original mounjaro) was 5 weeks until I felt something! I´m the person who needs higher doses, at the moment at 15mg doesn´t do much for me anymore...
 
Maybe it's placebo but I feel like I noticed almost immediately after pinning 1mg of Reta. Like, within a few hours. Being such a low dose, I still definitely get food noise but its SIGNIFICANTLY reduced. Not to mention, I get full of a meal much quicker now. Did my first pin on Friday and decided to re-up by .5mg the following Monday. I'm still working out the kinks of what works best for my body but I'm thinking 2mg may be my dose every week. 1mg on Friday, and another 1mg on Monday or Tuesday.
 
Started w/tirz/ name brand, w/in first couple hours. Took first shot after work and by dinner, I couldn't eat.
