I’ve finally taken the plunge and just ordered Wegovy from Asda pharmacy. All been well it should be ready for collection on Tuesday so it would be great to hear from anyone else who has just started or is about start their WLI/Weygovy journey.
I’m very nervous and haven’t told anyone, but I’ve just failed at my 3rd diet attempt this year and feeling horribly self-conscious about my weight and dreading the summer so just thought fuck it, I’m going to give it a go.

hello all, I started 1mg last night. So far ive not had any suppression on 0.25 or 0.5 (very briefly the first week) and no side effects but today having strong feelings about food and got side effects such as eggy burps and lots of toilet visits (sorry TMI). Really hope this is the turning point!

I’ve lost 4.5 pounds in June so a total of either ten or eleven pounds (have lost track) after ten doses. On the one hand it’s painfully slow for the money and I can’t really afford it. On the other hand, it’s sort of working as I don’t have any sense of relying on my dwindling willpower that I would normally have on a diet. I feel like I could keep going for a long time. So with two doses left in the pen I haven’t decided if I am stopping, continuing or pausing.

If I continue I will be sticking with 1mg for the foreseeable so that the side effects are manageable. Interested to hear others’ plans.
