Update on my situation with am i the only one who — wanted to follow up since some of you asked.

2 months since my last post and things have changed a lot. Here is what happened:

Talked to my provider about the concerns raised in my previous thread and they had a different perspective.

Full details below. Thanks to everyone who responded last time — your input genuinely made a difference.

To answer the question about Am I the only one who forgot to eat today — in my experience this comes down to a few key factors.

I have been dealing with this for about 6 months now, and what I have found is that individual responses really do vary. That said, the general consensus on Am I the only one who forgot seems solid.

What specifically worked for me: starting with a lower dose and titrating slowly. I would suggest JenPlateau try the same approach and reporting back.

LibrarianMeg nailed it. Building on that — Am I the only one who forgot to eat is something I discuss with my dietitian regularly, and their clinical perspective aligns with what LibrarianMeg described.

One thing I would add: discussing this with your provider early helps.

Subscribing to this thread. Am I the only one who is exactly what I've been researching. 🙏

Clinical perspective on Am I the only one who forgot to eat:

I have managed ~150 patients on GLP-1 therapy and this topic comes up frequently. What the data shows — and what I see in practice — is that the medication works best as part of a comprehensive approach.

For this specific question, I would recommend: getting comprehensive baseline labs first.
