Good on you for posting the baseline before starting. Most people start too fast.

Week 14
  • Semaglutide · 1.7 mg · weekly · sub-Q

First shot went in tonight. Pin barely felt. Waiting for whatever is supposed to happen.

Day 2: mild nausea. Appetite gone. Had to remind myself to eat. 211.0 this morning (probably water).

Force the protein especially early. Easy to slip way under.

The baseline stuff is solid but curious if you're tracking anything else that could move the needle independently. Like are you actually changing diet or just eating less because the appetite suppression is doing the work? Makes a big difference for how you interpret week 4-5 results when the nausea wears off and you gotta white-knuckle it a bit more.
