Following this thread closely. Okay who else cannot stop is something I'm actively working through.

Gonna push back on this one. Okay who else cannot stop burping is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 18 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.

Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But adherence is harder than people admit. We should be honest about that.

Want to share my personal experience related to Okay who else cannot stop since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 259 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 18 months later: I am down 69 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Okay who else cannot aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.

Saving this for reference. Quality thread.

james_edin — that is really helpful context on Okay who else cannot stop. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?

I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.
