10mg tirzepatide — strongest appetite suppression I've felt

I'm a nurse and I want to share a clinical perspective on the GI side effects. What's happening in your gut during the first few weeks is the medication slowing gastric emptying significantly. This is by design — it's the mechanism that creates satiety. The nausea is your body adjusting to this new normal. It gets better as your body adapts.

I keep a protein shake on my desk for days when nothing sounds good. It helps.

Week 12 checking in — yes, the hair loss is real but it does slow down. Biotin helped me.

This is exactly what happened to me at week 6. The nausea just... stopped one day. Hang in there!
