I'll start, i thought the way i was bloating and not going to the bathroom was just going to be how it is but after the third week i noticed it's normalizing? So i wondered, what side effects did others have at one point that stopped when there bodies got used to it?

Sleeping is another it's gotten a little better so i wonder if that's something i can look forward to as well.
 
no bloating here, but dry mouth persisted for a few weeks. skin sensitivity hasn't gone away after 2 months. heart rate is no longer elevated after about 1 month. never had issues with sleep, but i've been taking melatonin for years, so idk. no pain of any sort -- excluding skin sensitivity being uncomfortable every so often -- or bowel issues. i do still feel very cold when going to bed 2 months later, but have no problem running the AC all day long, which is weird.

not pooping often has been a very strange thing to get used to lol

No sure what dose you're on. It gets worse as you titrate up, at least for me. Started mid 6mg and has continued to 8mg. Heartburn is the other, I only get it before bed sometimes on shot day. I used to get it nightly when starting.

2mg split dosed weekly, I'm really shocked at exactly one month in all my side effects have stopped... bowels back to normal , last night got 7 hours for first time in a month..

I really wonder if reduction in side effects is accompanied by reduced effectiveness of the reta as in you dont feel the appetite suppression (fuller earlier) feeling and food noise thing. I really want to know this as I dont want to go past 4mg and want to stay at 2mg as long as possible
