Just finished week 3 of semaglutide and the nausea is finally backing off. Things that helped me, in case anyone is suffering through it:
- Eat smaller portions, even smaller than you think (think half a sandwich, not a whole one)
- Avoid greasy or fried food for at least the first 2 weeks
- Ginger tea or ginger chews after eating
- Cold drinks tend to settle better than hot ones for me
- Don't lie down for at least an hour after a meal
If you're still struggling, talk to your doctor about Zofran. It made a huge difference for me on the worst days.
