melly - since you're still in week one maybe you should get your body more used to it by taking your only dose at night? Some doctors also recommend increasing much more slowly. I stayed in 500 for between 3 and 4 weeks. I'm now taking a 750 XR, so still only one pill (but a huge one!) that can be taken at night or in the evening. I actually don't take mine with food, but maybe I should - I don't have GI symptoms, just tired ones.
