Hi all,
Here’s my experience with foundayo. On week 3 now. Started at the 2mg one.
Week 1-
Started taking the pill in the morning. Felt the food noise disappear pretty quickly. But I felt ILL with headaches and nausea and body aches about 3 days in. Stuck it out. Lost 2 lbs.
Week 2-
Bad and good symptoms continued. Eventually switched to the pill at night and stopped taking my other medication, trazodone, and slowly started to feel A LOT better. Lost 2 lbs.
Week 3- NOW
Barely any negative symptoms, and eating a lot less. I think about food less. When I do get hungry, my eyes are definitely bigger than my stomach, but the full feeling stops me in my tracks. The hardest part has been eating enough protein and food etc to be able to do my hobby sports.
All in all I would recommend it. Stick it out through the hard parts. Strongly recommend taking it at night after the first couple of days. Drink lots of water.
Anyone else having a similar experience? Not sure if I’m going to ask to get bumped up to the 5.5 since this dosage is working well for now.
I'll add Dose 5 update here, too, since I weighed in this morning. I actually don't know what a fair starting weight is, because I took Dose 1 on Monday immediately following a weekend vacation where I felt like all we did was eat. Those extra couple of pounds always fall off after normalizing to non-vacation mode, so, I'll need to estimate based on what I think I would have weighed minus the couple of days of travel- Let's say starting weight was 184.5 on Monday. On weigh-in day, I'm 182.3. This is great, but I'm not ready yet to attribute it to Foundayo. Future weeks will be more informative, but definitely wanted to get this documented. I'll start updating every Friday from now on unless something important happens.
Took dose #4 of 0.8mg around 9pm last night. Still no side effects (but have rightly been reminded that this is an itty bitty baby dose, so not surprising). I was skeptical at first, but I \*do\* think I am experiencing a different kind of feeling related to food/hunger/cravings. Before when I would think about getting a treat, I would either a) think about it, want it, go get it or b) think about it, want it, choose not to get it because I was trying to diet/eat healthier, etc. Over the past couple of days, I either a) don't think about it or b) think about it and then feel almost like a pause in the thought trajectory where I have time to realize, I don't really want it. So then I don't get it. So, that's pretty cool. And different. I don't know whether it will translate into any weight loss this early, but we'll see tomorrow when I weigh in.

ONE MONTH FOUNDAYO REVIEW: Coming from Compounded Sema
Hi all, figured I'd share a proper month one update because I couldn't find many honest ones when I was just starting out.
**overall down 2.1lbs:** Had a wedding, a birthday weekend and a work trip this month so not stressed about the number at all, water weight and life happened
**side effects:** Constipation is the one nobody warned me about. cCming from compounded sema the GI experience is noticeably different and honestly worse in this specific way. Currently experimenting with more fiber and magnesium glycinate at night, slowly getting better.
**the good stuff:** Coming into my last week on the starter dose I can genuinely feel the appetite suppression now. It's not dramatic but it's there hunger shows up, I eat, it quiets down. No urge to just eat to eat which is actually huge for me personally.
Inflammation is also down which i wasn't expecting this early. also on metformin for insulin which i think is helping the overall picture
**stats:** 5'4 | CW 174lbs | 32F | goal 148
Moving up to the next dose tomorrow and genuinely excited to see what month two looks like.
anyone else find the constipation worse than their previous GLP experience and what actually helped
