Hi all, I have taken my 4th injection of wegovy this morning.

I haven't felt a single bit of difference , like others have claimed to experience. In fact I have been feeling ravenous since the day I started.

I weighed today & I have put on 6lbs , I'm devastated 🙁 I'm really not sure whether to continue this & move onto the next dose or not as at the moment I am feeling like this has all been a waste of time & money!! I would really appreciate some positive stories letting me know it does get better as I really am feeling so low and deflated today 😔

It didn't work for me either. I lost 7.5 stone and had 2 stone until goal so thought I'd give myself a bit of extra help. Honestly for me it did very little so I came off it. I was struggling to lose the last 2 stone and still am. I'm tempted to see if mounjaro works better but I've spent so much money already.

Well done for losing that 7.5 stone though! 👏 that's an amazing achievement. Sorry to hear it did little for you also , however I am glad to hear I'm not the only one as I've read alot of success stories with wegovy. I am tempted to move to mounjaro also, but like you say we've spent money already & is another risk of something else not working

All Wegovy gave me was nasty side affects, minimal weight loss and I gained more than I lost after stopping at two months in. Mounjaro has been amazing. I've lost two stone, no significant side affects and feel great. Can you switch to MJ? It's way better.

Thank you for this. I think I'm going to swap over to Mounjaro
