Hi I know there is a main March thread for injections but I thought I’d also start a wegovy specific one for us to share our experiences.
I started wegovy on Thursday 5th March I haven’t yet had any side effect nor any suppression. I hope it will kick in soon.
I’m 5 ft 2 and 78 kg

Same here @TurquoiseDreamCatcher .2 of a kilo this week. Better than putting it on but as you say, was hoping for a bit speedier

Well I haven't had the best week. Took my 4th dose of 0.5 on Friday. Felt sick all day Saturday and could barely eat, fine yesterday but lots of food noise today. Weight appears not to have changed despite my maintaining a calorie deficit. I am however premenstrual so I am assuming/hoping it is that as I've decided to do another 4 weeks on 0.5mg as I do not like the sickness! I've either thrown up or felt nauseated after each injection.

anyone else had premenstrual hunger?

Hi maybeenot, I hope you are feeling better. That's disappointing to not have any loss yet. Wegovy seems to be a slow burner compared to mounjaro (from what Ive heard)

I have given up. I was feeling too sick, moody & tired all the time. It was impacting my work and home life too much. Feeling sick all day at work for the first 3 days after jabbing and then exhausted at home in the evenings losing the rag with dh & kids.
I took my last .50mg dose of wegovy a week and a half ago. Strangely I still had a disgusting burp yesterday so it must still be in my system. I'm not feeling hungry at all which is weird. In total I lost about half a stone which seems to have mostly come off my tummy. If I could have picked a place to come off it would have been there so at least something good came out of it 😆
I'm really intrigued to know why everyone experiences it differently. I really felt psychotic the last two months so it's a relief and I've decided id rather be happy and feeling good than skinny...for now 😌 🤣
