Wegovy after MJ?

I’ve lost 6 stone on MJ, came off it 2-3 months ago. Was doing ok until Christmas and now I’m eating everything in sight. Has anyone tried Wegovy after having a break from MJ? Is it effective?

Why did you come off MJ?

Did you make diet and lifestyle changes whilst on it?

Mounj25 · 10/01/2026 14:22

Because of the price. Yes I run 5k every other night and have been on a high protein low carb diet. I’ve had some stressful things going on and the last couple of weeks have just been eating total rubbish, emotional eating.

Are you putting on weight?

Yes

Following OP. I have very much taken my eye off the ball and gained some weight back. I have planned my food for the week, and hoping to get back on track myself, but it would be good to know how others get on with wegovy

Isn’t it quite normal for people to gain weight over Xmas and new year? Most of my non WLI friends are reeling themselves in at this time of year and on diets. I’m on MJ and I’ve had to get a couple of lbs off since Xmas. I’m just reading that you’ve done well for two or three months so you CAN do this..

Don't most people gain weight when they come off WLI?

I’ve had 9 mo off MJ and gained in the last three months. I’ve gone onto wegovy and haven’t had the same impact as I did on MJ in terms of suppression until I hit 1mg. I was hugely suppressed at 2.5mg of MJ.
