● WHY TITRATE
Every GLP-1 receptor agonist causes more GI side effects (nausea, constipation, reflux) at the start of each new dose step than after the body adapts. The FDA, mandated 4, week step interval gives most people enough time to acclimate. Move slower if you can't. The destination is the same. The cost of an extra month is nothing; the cost of skipping a step is two weeks of misery.
● THE FOUR NON, NEGOTIABLES
Protein floor at 1.0 g per pound of bodyweight. Resistance training 3+ sessions per week. Walking quota 8, 12k steps per day. Written exit plan before you start. Without these, 20, 40% of weight lost is lean mass, the most expensive mistake on the drug.
● SOURCING
Pharmaceutical brand from a US retail pharmacy is the gold standard. Compounded versions from licensed US 503A/503B pharmacies are widely available; verify a recent certificate of analysis. Avoid research, chemical channels.
