Will Wegovy work?

I was on MJ last year, never went past 2.5mg the whole time I was on it and didn't have any side effects and it worked great!

Lost over 2st and then stopped taking in August as was getting expensive and was happy to try and maintain on my own.

I've gained about 3-5lbs since then last year but I also feel really bloated again all the time now, where as I didn't when I was on MJ.

I'd like to start again on wegovy, I really can't afford Mounjaro anymore, to loose the few lbs and then maintain, I have real bad food noise again.

I've heard some say that once they have been on mounjaro then wegovy hasnt worked regardless of dose they are on.

Its been 5 months since my last dose of MJ.

Nobody can say… all bodies are different. Only way to know is to try.

I've seen lots say it works better, or differently, or less well or not at all (some of the not at all's might not have given it enough time/gone up doses enough).

It will be trial or error for you as an individual, unfortunately no guarantees.

Mounjaro low doses didn't have much effect on me, Wegovy seemed to work better. Never had major suppression on either though.

My friend switched to wegovy for financial reasons and has found it much better.

Hi, I switched due to cost to WG. I found 0.25 didn't do very much so I've gone up to 0.5. I think it very much depends on your body but it has been worth doing.

Plus Numan have a deal where it's £30 for the first month so worth a try!
