About to switch from MJ to Wegovy

Like hundreds of others!

What are your experiences? I'm slightly nervous as I had no side effects on MJ, lost three stone, then gained a little.

I want to lose a bit more, then mainly maintain, so jumping back to 2.5. I'm about to order from Voy.

Any smooth transitions that will stop me feeling a bit anxious? I felt 'safe' on MJ and I'm worried that Wegovy won't suit me. Is there a golden dose with Wegovy?

Thanks all. I'm sure these questions have all been asked many times, but the board moves so quickly!

I switched from 10mg mounjaro to 0.25 wegovy 3 weeks ago. Obviously the suppression is less because I've had to drop right down the doses (but I'm only on it to try and maintain)

Only side effect I've noticed is that I'm constipated which i wasn't on mounjaro

Ah yes, the constipation. I saw someone else mention that. Did it 'feel' the same otherwise? I don't even know what I mean by that Grin, I'm just feeling a bit anxious about making the switch!

I changed from 10mg MJ to 1mg wegovy a couple of weeks ago, it is going OK. A bit more food noise but less nausea for me. Still feeling 'full' and losing weight. Bit of constipation but I had a bit of a funny tummy on MJ so it seems a bit better overall.

I'm taking a stool softener called Dulcoease and drinking lots of water which seems to help.

I'm really struggling with Wegovy, lost control last night and ate LOADS - it was like I was back at the beginning before I started Mounjaro. The binge eating, the overwhelming guilt, it was horrible. Ive got a 0.5mg pen arriving today, planning to take the first dose of that plus my final dose from my 0.25 pen and see if that helps.

Everything was perfect on 10mg Mounjaro but its just totally out of reach financially. Feeling down 😔
