It's my birthday next week and I'm considering delaying my shot so I can really enjoy my birthday dinner but I'm scared of messing up my progress. Has anyone had success delaying a shot? And will postponing one dose even affect my appetite that much?

I totally get wanting to enjoy your birthday dinner without worrying about your appetite being suppressed. From what I’ve read, skipping a single dose or delaying it usually won’t have a huge long-term impact on your progress, but it can temporarily affect your appetite, as the medication’s effects wear off a bit. Some people have said they felt more hungry the day after skipping or delaying a dose, but it’s really individual.

I skipped a dose occasionally for similar reasons! I found it did increase my appetite but usually not a crazy amount- and sometimes minimized my progress but only for that week or two. I never had any real problem with it! You could also take a smaller dose for that week instead!

I did this for Thanksgiving and I don’t know if it’s because I changed my eating habits but regardless of skipping the dose I still got full much faster than usual
