Starting Wegovy pill and looking for others to join a support thread Sept 2026

[Autumnfun1]

Day 1 on wegovy pill would you like to join a support thread to support each other on this journey

Hi, I am on 4mg for 19 days it's been very slow but I think that is due to being on holiday last week and had a few treats here and there. Going to be more disciplined this week. Definitely eating healthier and less food noise. Sorry to hear some have side effects hope they eased soon. I haven't changed provider stayed with boots. Although slow clothes fitting better which feels good.

1 month and three weeks in and still on 1.5mg, I still occasionally get nausea in the mornings, and I'm not sure what the difference is between the mornings I do and those I don't. I suppose I should track my food more rigorously to see if there is a pattern.

I have an event to go to on Friday and it's nice to have a choice of clothes without having to buy something new. Quite a few work dresses I haven't worn in years got washed this weekend.

I would love to know if anyone experiences hair loss with the wygovy tablet. I took the jab last year and only stopped as lost so much hair.

Have put a stone back on, so thinking about the tablets for that stone and then maintenance

I am on day 63 off the wegovy pill and have seen no sign of hair loss so far.

Day 64, took my last 4mg today and will start 9mg tomorrow. I am in the 12 stones now hitting 12st 13lb yesterday 🥳
I hope everyone else is doing well 🤞🏻

Well done, @Apsidistra . Excellent milestone x

@YummyBelicious , I started taking the tablets on Sept. 2nd. I've not noticed any hair loss - I have a LOT of hair, if I was losing it, the plughole would soon tell me!

Wednesday Weigh-in

Day 49 (second month on 1.5mg)

Starting weight 66.7 kg (10st 7)
Weight last week 61.6kg (9st 10)

Current weight 61.0kg (9st 8.5)

Total loss 5.6kg (12.5 lbs)

I'm 9 kg down overall and currently wearing a dress that didn’t fit at the start of the year so it feels positive. Still a bit to go though, my target was minimum 10 but preferably 20kg but I’m feeling fairly confident about it.

I've lost 12lb but it's taken me 13 weeks to do that! I have been away during that time and I'm not calorie counting but I am making good choices so overall I have to see it as a win as I'm sticking with it and still losing but it is expensive. I'm now on the maximum dose so if things don't speed up it'll be costing me about £45 for every lb I shift. Put like that I should come off it. I think I'll do another month on Wegovy and then I might switch to the new tablet.

Congratulations everyone else on your loses

Hiya. Been on wegovy nearly 2 wks (1.5mg pill). My bmi27 im 43 and exercise. Really no effect? Im eating the same or more... 2 horrible nights one with nearly fainting after getting up too quick, the other vommitting after a heavy meal. Feel like im thinking about food the whole time as im hyper aware of taking this drug. Really not sure if its for me? Push on or ditch it?

Week.6
Sw 16 stone 12
Cw 15 stone 9
Total loss 1 stone 3 pounds!
3 pound loss in last week
Still on 1.5mg and very reluctant to go up as it is working for me and I worry about side effects. Plus I really dont want to feel like I just dont want to eat anything. So sticking at 1.5 fir now.

I think I’m going to have to give up. I just can’t cope with this constant nausea. It’s counterproductive because I’m just picking on white toast, plain crisps and biscuits as they’re the only things I can face and I’m not doing any exercise at all as I just feel so rotten!! I can’t afford to go back on MJ so I think I’m just going to have to try and go it alone trying low carb and intermittent fasting 😔

I’ve had a few days break then im going to try every other day. I did read that the nausea is worse at the beginning of a new dose.

I've just started the 4mg after two months on the 1.5mg. I've lost 5kg so far. Weighed myself this morning and I'm now 13 stone something. Ever want to see 14 stone on the scales again..

Today is my first day on 4mg after a month on 1.5mg. I've lost 11 lbs so far but nothing lost in the last week. Hopefully things will get going again soon. Pleased with 11 lbs though.

I'm still feral for sweets so I'm going for 4mg. Really annoyed about that because I'd stopped wanting sweets or chocolate after I caught covid last year 😤 Have only lost 4lb in 8 weeks as well.

I haven’t lost anything in the last week either. My only consolation is that I’m due on (overdue) so hoping that’s why. Tomorrow will be 1 week in 9mg for me.

I’m on my second month 4mg and have another 10’days to go and I’m all of sudden feral for sweets . So think I’m going to go up to the 9mg which I’m really nervous about .

iv lost 1st 11 pounds since I started in mid August

That's incredible weight loss in 2 months. Well done!

Thank you . I originally started at 16 stone , and I’m 5ft 6. I started my diet in May and by August I’d lost 21lbs. Then I started the pill. If I can lose 2 more lbs I would have lost 3 stone .

it’s been hard and Iv been super strict and cut out all the rubbish from my diet , like crisps, pizza , rice and chips . Completely changed my diet , did the couch to 5k, and I walk an about 15k steps a day . And Iv cut out tea and coffee and only drink sparkling water . I thought I would struggle with such big changes but now I’m feeling healthier and Iv dropped 2 Jean sizes , Iv got from a size 18 to a 14 . Ideally I’d like to lose another stone .

Hi
Started 12/09/2026 - just moved up to 4mg.
Starting weight - 12 stone 6
Currently weight - 11 stone 7
Target weight - 10 stone

Really pleased with the weight loss but I’m finding the nausea and tiredness so much. I can’t eat because I will then feel sick but I also feel sick because I haven’t eaten. For context I’ve eaten a slice of bread and half a pack of super noodles today and physically can’t bring myself to eat anything else. I just can’t stand the site of food at the moment.
