Lack of hunger after increase to 5mg

Side Effects

I’m on week 11 of Tirzepatide, and I increased to 5mg this past Sunday. The only side effect I’m having is a complete and total lack of hunger. Everything sounds gross. I can manage a bite or two before I have to stop. I haven’t felt hunger since I took my shot. I’m fighting for my life to get 900 calories a day.

Has anyone else experienced this when increasing your dose, and did it level out after a week or two? I haaaaate it. I would much rather be able to eat (small, reasonable meals at mealtime) and not be dealing with food noise outside of that than stuck in this weird, never hungry limbo. Its unhealthy and unsustainable. I’ll give it a week or two but really considering going back down to 2.5 if it doesn’t settle.
