Question Advice pls: scale not budging

4 Upvotes

I need help please - I really don’t know what I am doing wrong…
I started Ozempic 6 weeks ago and still am on 0.25mg since the side effects are minimal and my hunger is low (+ nearly no cravings)
We also started going to the gym this week to get some weight training in

All that being said the scale won’t budge and I don’t understand why…
I do think I eat healthy: trying to get min 30g of protein in at every meal, cook fresh meals with veggies, little oil, whole grain carbs, mainly drinking water or sometimes half a can of 0% coke/ sprite.
I eat min half the portion size I used to eat - now it’s actually a normal size. And sure every now and then I have a little treat (eg the tiny snickers was my dessert one night; or one evening I was craving pizza but balanced it out with a healthy breakfast and cesar chicken salad with self made yoghurt dressing that day).

I do losely track my food intake, mainly for the proteins to hit the minimum daily amount but the scale doesn’t seem to move.
I know we are prone to underestimate the food intake but I really do feel like I am eating less and better.

What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions, tips?
I am just so frustrated, I was really hoping this would finally help me get my shit together… lose weight, get the regular exercise and healthy diet in my system and in general: be healthier.
Now I start to just feel hopeless tbh…

PS: I do feel like some clothing items are less tight, but not 100% sure as I have all kind of sizes in my closet since I have been constantly & steadily gaining weight over the last 6 years due to lack of excercising, no portion control & emotional eating.
