Has anyone not lost weight on Wyegovy?!

I’ve been on it 12 weeks and lost 4lbs! That’s it. This is despite calorie counting, being active etc. I have had a lot of side effects and I’m considering giving up. Anyone else as all I read or know people who have lost tonnes of weight. Feeling despondent tbh.

I’ve been on for 2 months after swapping from mounjaro and put on 5lbs. I’m going back to mounjaro despite the cost

Thanks for replying. I’m considering swapping to mounjaro. Did you find you had many side effects?

Mounjaro has less side effects than wegovy and it has two agonists and the second reduces the impact from the first apparently. It’s also a more effective drug.

if you’ve done 12 weeks and wegovy doesn’t work for you then I’d switch myself. As long as cost is acceptable to you.

Thank you. I’ve had horrendous side effects too so will look into mounjaro.

I had about 3 bad episodes of side effects in a year on mounjaro. Moving from 5mg to 7.5mg I had diarrhoea and vomiting for 36 hours twice in 2 weeks and then when I went to 12.5mg I had diarrhoea. All episodes were manageable and I made a full recovery quickly each time. I found pepto-bismol really helped settle my stomach

I’ve just switched from 7.5mg dose of mounjaro to 0.5 wegovvy I’ve been stuck at 12.3-12.5 stone for past 8 weeks and with the rising cost I thought I would try has anyone switched and continued to lose weight? Any advice welcomed
