Trying AOD-9604 for stubborn belly fat – my 6‑week log and questions

Posted by tiredmira in Weight Loss & Metabolic - 1 points, 0 comments.

I’ve been injecting AOD-9604 each morning for six weeks now, mostly to see if it helps with the lower abdominal fat that hasn’t budged despite diet and lifting. I started at 0.5 mg subcutaneously and bumped to 1 mg after two weeks because I wasn’t noticing much change in appetite or scale weight.

My weight has dropped about 1.8 kg total, but most of that came in the first week and then plateaued. My HRV stayed steady, sleep quality didn’t shift noticeably, and I didn’t feel any extra energy during workouts. I did get mild stomach gurgling a couple of times after injection, nothing that lasted more than an hour.

I’m wondering if others have seen better results with a higher dose or split dosing, or if stacking it with something like low‑dose semaglutide could help break the plateau. Any tips on timing around meals or workouts? 😅
