Hello,

new Ozempic user here, just started my 3rd week on 0.25 mg for treating obesity (F38, 5'6", 275 lbs).

My question is this: is it normal for Ozempic to lose its effect around day 5? I manage to get through the first five days just fine, but on days 6 & 7 I eat like no tomorrow (not binging but extremely ravenous). After taking the shot in the beginning of the new week, everything's fine and dandy again.

Could this be due to the dosage still being so low, or the fact that I tend to inject to the abdominal area? I have read some posts suggesting injection to upper arm or thigh instead, but how much does the injection site matter?

Thanks for all the answers!
