Week 4 on tirz and the food noise just... Stopped, anyone else?

So I am officially a month into tirzepatide after switching from sema where I had basically stalled out at around 8% loss over 5 months 😅

The first two weeks at 2.5mg I felt basically nothing, same as last time. Moved up to 5mg two weeks ago and oh wow. The constant mental chatter about food, the planning my next meal while eating the current one, all of it basically went quiet around day 4.

I have been tracking calories anyway out of habit, and I am naturally landing around 1400-1500 without trying, which used to be a real push for me. Down 6.4 lbs this month and my average glucose on my CGM is down like 8 points.

Only side so far is mild nausea the morning after my shot, gone by lunch. Way more manageable than I expected.

For anyone who came from sema to tirz, did the side effects ramp as you titrated further? Trying to mentally prepare before I go to 7.5 next week 🥗
