Hi - not sure I'll get many replies as most seem to be on Mounjaro. I started Wegovy last night. 0.25. Feel totally normal so far today. I am definitely not hungry but am not normally hungry in the am.

Sw - 13.5
1st gw - 12.4

1st week done, just took second jab. Lost 6.5lbs. Obv pleased with that but large part of that is a last minute gain from a holiday, although overall still down as was 14 before hols.

SW 14st 5
CW 13st 12.5

See how second week goes for side effects and begin thinking about ordering next pen

Third dose taken about an hour ago as I forgot last night! I've lost just over 4lbs in two weeks, not a huge amount but I think I'm OK with that.

I dithered over ordering the 0.5, but I finally took the plunge. I'm really hoping that it lasts a bit longer than the 0.25 as im finding it really wears off by day 5.

How's everyone going? Just completed 2nd week and taken 3rd dose, no major side effects so far - except constipation is getting to me

SW 14st 5
Week 2 loss - 2.5lb, loss so far 9lbs
CW 13st 10

Congrats on your loss so far, we are at the same stage and so far despite being in a calorie deficit I've only lost 1lb
I'm not giving up I clearly need a stronger dose as I think it's competing against my epilepsy meds which increase appetite. I gained 2 stone when I swapped to the meds as they affect my insulin I believe.
My side effects have subsided, not major ones but I drink so much water which helps with everything .
Good luck everyone

Interested to hear how you are all doing on wegovy now and how much you have lost/what dose you are now on etc? Im only a few weeks in but it'd be nice to hear experiences from those a bit further along

Steady loss for me , 1lb a week and am now 11lbs down.
Increasing to Dose 1 from 0.5 tomorrow.
Stayed longer on 0.5 as was on holiday in Portugal and didn't want side effects

I've still not really much effect or weight loss. I'm on 1mg at the moment and go up to 1.7mg next week. Usually my weight fluctuates between about 11st and 11st 7lb, and I've managed to stabilise at the lower end, but no meaningful loss yet.
