Need some rational thoughts
I'm trying to decide if I should stay on 7.5 or go back to 5. (Or maybe go crazy and try 6 since I don't use the prefilled autoinjectors)
I started at the beginning of October at 217. 1 month or 2.5. 2 months at 5, started Jan on 7.5
Lost a total of 34 lbs so that's roughly 2lbs per week. BUT I had way more loss at the beginning. When I went to 5 I had a couple weeks where I was eating an unhealthy amount of almost nothing
I switched Drs in Jan and she said I was losing too fast and she wants me back on 5. So I did. And now it's been 2 weeks where I lost nothing and was starving the whole time.
So, Friday I tried going back to 7.5 and was going to email her and tell her. But now I'm back to eating probably not enough. Not a crazy unhealthy amount, but barely hitting my minimum.
So, I'm frustrated by not losing, but I want to be healthy and patient (which I'm obviously not). My pharmacist husband suggested maybe try an in between dose. So I'll probably try that, but tell me the hard truth, should I just stick out this plateau and stay with the 5mg dose?
