Has anyone just started or about to start Wegovy Tablets? Would love some company

[jugof]

I took the plunge and ordered today, hopefully arrive tomorrow - would love to have others who are at the same point to share experiences!

Congratulations! Me too! 8lb exactly. I started on Monday and have just weighed in - I’m delighted. I have absolutely loads to lose though but I’m already feeling so much better. How have you found it? It really feels like a miracle drug!

Well done running

I have had no side effects that I can see - other than I am not as regular with the bowel movements- although I have been eating less so??

My only thing is to try and get my tablet in first thing so that I can have breakfast before I go out to work.

Regarding the appetite suppression - I guess it is there - but I am a comfort eater and will eat even if not hungry so it's a little more difficult to control that.

Time will tell. My BMI is only about 26.5 (now) but I was just so fed up of fighting with the litlte bit of extra..

Onwards and upwards (downwards on the scale ) :)

I've done two weeks now on the 1.5mg, my eating hasn't been the best as we've been on holiday so I haven't been able to cook what I'd like to, but I've definitely eaten a lot less than usual - the only night I had a pudding with my meal it made me feel really hot and nauseous in the night

I also did plenty of exercise - loads of walking, started C25K - but have only lost 1lb I know this is just a loading dose and losing any weight on it is a bonus - but I really hoped to lose a little more!

Undecided really about sticking with 1.5mg (I've had no side effects to speak of) or trying a higher dose...

Hi

Can I join .

I started last week, so I am I’m day 7.

I started dieting end of May and I was 16 stone 11lb, I’m only 5ft 6, so my BMI was 36.

I started taking the pill I was 14 Stone 9lb . I want to lose another two more stone .

Iv cut out snacks , bread , pasta and crips . I’m eating lots of protein, and salads . Just being sensible .

I’m also drinking lots of sparkling water , and taking
psyllium husk and electrolytes in my water .

I also started the couch to 5k and on week 6. It’s not been easy

1st
SW- 205lbs
CW- 202lbs

End Week 1 for me and 9lbs down, now -11 on Day 12... although I can feel food noise creeping back in. Wonder if this is a sign my body is now ready for 4mg?

Planning on going up to 4 when my next order is due first week of September.

Only had one minor day of gastro issues which I think was due to too much pomegranate lol. I have navigated days out and the pub without causing damage which I'm happy about. It does feel like this could work for me longer term. It's exciting and also very freeing to have my mind working with me not against me for a change.

1 week in and I’ve lost 7lb!

Absolutely thrilled with that, I do have a very high starting weight though.

I’ve got a holiday towards the end of September, and I’d love to be in the 19 stone bracket for that.

SW 21st 5lb
CW 20st 12lb

I’m feeling a bit disappointed at the end of week one. I’ve lost 3.3lbs. I’d just restarted Pilates a couple of weeks ago and began jogging again, but I broke a rib so now I can’t do much and I’m comfort/boredom eating again. Going to be gutted if I end up putting on weight instead!

But you lost 3 lbs - which is better than gaining or staying the same.

Dont be disheartened it’s only week 1

I've been on the Wegovy tablets for a while now, and moved up to the 4mg dose. I've lost about 1.5 stone so far, which is great, but the 4mg dose is giving me terrible dizziness. And with both doeses I've really struggled with the aftertase- it's really disgusting!
I'm thinking of switching to injections. I have no problem injecting myself and if I cana void that horrible taste then I will.

I’m going up to 4mg tomorrow. I actually doubled up the last 2 1.5 doses as was feeling no effect from them.

If the increase doesn’t work im
going back to the jabs- they were tremendously effective for me.

Started mid-July and moved up to 4mg 10 days ago. SW - 120kg
CW - 107.4kg
moved in to a new stone bracket so these are definitely working for me ☺️

I have been thinking of starting wegovy so reading with interest. I’m such a snacked and eat out of boredom, does it suppress that want? Also how does it mix with alcohol? Would love to achieve the losses some on here have had.
