+1 to JennaRN. Especially the point about "Re: Am I the only one who forgot — the s..." — I have seen the same in my own experience with Am I the only one who.
Want to share my personal experience related to Am I the only one who forgot since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 246 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 16 months later: I am down 46 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Am I the only one aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
SarahChen_PharmD — that is really helpful context on Am I the only one who. Follow-up question: did you change anything about your diet at the same time?
I am in a similar situation (month 2) and trying to set realistic expectations.

From a clinical standpoint, Am I the only one who forgot is well-supported by the literature.
The short answer: follow the standard titration protocol and reassess at 4-6 weeks.
The longer answer involves pharmacokinetic considerations around steady-state concentrations, which I am happy to elaborate on if helpful.
