I think I injected incorrectly would love some feedback.
Hi everybody,
During my first month I lost 4KG on the 0.25mg weekly dose, this week was my first 0.5mg dose and my eating has been exactly what it was before I began ozempic with late night snacking/meals lots of cheese and dairy etc. When I started on 0.25mg all that type of eating stopped almost instantly.
On my 0.5mg injection it was very stingy but I held it in for the 6 seconds anyway through the pain and a bit of blood came out after, and then as I said I’ve been hungry and the food noise is back not as strong as before but still fairly strong.
I injected close to belly button as I believed it was meant to be 2inches of the belly button but I’ve seen things now saying it needs to be at least 2 inches away from belly button I’m confused which is the correct way for me to inject as my next dose is due in 2 days and I really want to be back to how I was the first month I was a lot more happy with how I was eating and with no food noise.
Really appreciate any advice/feedback for me thanks.
