March 2026 starters

[Behealthy2026]

hi, I thought I would start a new group. I am waiting for my medical review before being issued with my first dose

Day 4 and the suppression on wegovy seems much less than it was on mounjaro. I definitely feel less hungry and the draw to eat everything has lessened a bit but I definitely could!

No side effects though other than being a bit burpy.

Hey, thank you @SmallTreeDeepRoots I'm still feeling nauseous today. I just can't face food, which is probably not helping at all!

@ThatMerryFox hope you feel better soon.

Is anyone else wavering over what dose to order next?

I had a bad week in week 2 and the scales haven't moved at all, but I did have a couple of meals out and drank alcohol.

I'm not sure whether to order now or whether to leave it a few days to see if there is any movement on a more sensible diet. I am feeling a little bit of suppression still.

I dont want to leave ordered too late so i don't have the next pen on time though 🤔

@taratill I felt the same, my supplier contacted me in my second week, which felt way too early to make a decision, and I really wasn't sure what to do. I entered my weight loss and they recommended I stick on 2.5 so that's what I ordered, partly because of their recommendation, but also because I'd struggled with side effects for the whole of week 1.
I'll be starting my second pen on Friday, and even now I am not sure if sticking on 2.5 is right for me, I am losing steadily though and have pretty good suppression, with only occasional side effects now. Good luck whichever you choose.

End of week 2 and weigh in day today which was disappointing only 1lb down I lost 8lb in the first week. I have drank alcohol but have been sticking to around 1000 cals a day other than that. I know these things fluctuate and seeing that everyone is getting different results is reassuring that I’m not doing anything too wrong. I’m very impatient also!

Can i join please? First jab saturday, 4 stone to lose and feeling motivated reading your results so far 😘

Welcome @MumofOne28

Please can I join? I want to start but scared! Mainly of slowing the gut and constipation, etc

Still dithering here. I am a daily weigher and haven't lost anything since Friday. I've got my 4th jab on Thurs eve and then I need to order my next pen. I was hoping to do a second month on 2.5 but I'm thinking that's not a good idea now.

And again this morning no drop. So 5 days with no change. Calorie counting and definitely no snacking or cheating. Walking more than I did before MJ. Had anyone else had this? I think I will have to go up to 5mg next week when I reorder.

Took my 3rd 2.5 jab on Sunday, weight has stayed the same the last 3 days but then I’ve not been completely on plan as had a 10k race and a few drinks to celebrate.
Total loss since 8th March is 4.3kg

side effects haven’t been too bad really, I did have a homemade cake the other day and overate, felt sickly all afternoon.

Morning, can I join please? I’m starting tomorrow. Reading all the losses on here is very inspiring. I’ve been on MJ before about 1.5 years ago. I lost 13kg but I’ve put 6kg back on. I wanted to lose more the first time round, but I was struggling for money so I came off it and I was so sure I could manage the rest on my own. But the weight crept on. I have learned my lesson though, the last time I didn’t track my calories and I ate what I wanted and didn’t change my habits. This time, I am going to track everything and focus on high protein food and concentrate on stopping bad habits.

Day 2 and still no side effects at all which I'm so happy about!
Only had about 700 cals yesterday which I know it absolutely not enough but I just didn't feel hungry and forgot all about breakfast.
I have had breakfast this morning and have dinner and tea planned, so today's calories will be better.

Welcome to the new starters!

What supplements is everyone taking, if any?
Ive just started a multivitamin for women and pumpkin seed oil capsules (I have androgenetic alopecia so doing anything I can to reduce even more hair loss!)

I also use a protein shake for days where I don’t have much appetite or struggling to get the protein in other ways.

Is there anything else you would recommend?

Also interested in supplements. I’ve started taking collagen (partly for skin elasticity in anticipation of massive weight loss, but also for the easy addition of protein to my daily intake). Other than that I’m taking a daily vitamin D spray. I’d love to hear what others are taking.

I'm taking probiotics, collagen and vitamin D.

First week done
2.4 Kilo down
i don’t know why I’m disappointed - that’s the first time the scales have gone down in about 5 years!

That’s over 5 pounds gone forever! That’s amazing well done!!

I’ve had to buy new scales. I had a sneaky look last night,half way through my week. I stood on the scales three times and got three different results 😂

Thank you MumofOne!

That's a good way of thinking of it!

24 hrs after injection 3 and i'm feeling rubbish, really bloated, headache and knackered.

I'm also a kilo heavier than yesterday which is weird as I didn't have a heavy food day at all.

I'm wfh and even went back to bed in my lunch hour and could sleep again now.

Didn't have this exhaustion after the first 2 jabs so it's a bit odd.

Hello everyone. I’m 12.5 stone, had my first 2.5 injection on Monday morning. I feel no different. It’s evening time and I’m starving despite having my tea only a few hours ago.

Hi all, took my 4th jab this week a day early, which I plan to do for the next few weeks to get to a Saturday jab which means I won’t have to take stuff with me on our holiday at the end of April. I really don’t want the worry about keeping it cool and declaring it the other end lol. I’ve lost 15lbs so far which I’m so pleased about. The 2.5 still seems to be working for me atm. The only side effects have been tiredness in the evening and feeling cold too! I can put up with that tho.
I keep reminding myself it’s a marathon not a sprint!

That’s a great loss 🎉💪
