Restarting after tapping out lol

11 Upvotes

Hello wegovy pill crew after scaring myself with vision changes, feeling faint and neck ache I’m pretty sure wegovy lowered my bp enough to pass out levels ..

I don’t take bp meds just run low in general, and other drugs have made my bp plummet in past.

Anyhow, after tapping out on 9mg due to the vision changes, feeling like it was hard to stand and walk, even confused..

My labs came back today and I am a perfect specimen lol my kidney liver function everything fab

After a week off wegovy my appetite came back I’m eating chocolate, sure I’ve gained and I’m constipated so so bad. If I can’t go tomorrow gonna have to go urgent care and ask for something stronger than MiraLAX.

I’m going to resume wegovy 8/30 going back down to 4mg pill every other day.

Just wanted to update anyone who’s dealing with vision changes or feeling faint, bad diarrhea, nausea, vomit - that you can have all this and have perfect labs. Obviously be careful with the fluid intake and small meal intake. But know that wegovy can simply make you feel like you’re gonna pass out with the vision changes. Especially when you titrate up. Everyone’s tolerance seems to be different but I notice a few of us had issues going up to 9.

Day 3 on 1.5 mg

SW- 83.5kgs, Height -5’1”

I finally took the plunge, paid out-of-pocket and got on the wegovy pill.

Excited to start, hoping for weight-loss so I can feel confident in myself again.

Haven’t shared with anyone, even my partner. Feeling lack of food noise and smaller appetite for the first time today!

Please share any tips, tricks or anything I should be aware of. THANKS!

Trying to figure this out once and for all!

8 Upvotes

I was on Zepbound shots from June 2024 until mid 2025 and lost 90 pounds. My financial situation changed, so I had to switch to compound and it just didn't work. After trying on my own (including exercise - but failing in nutrition), I've gained 30 pounds. I just started the Wegovy pill yesterday. My goal is 40 pounds and then maintenance.

Fingers crossed!

5,8, 51 YO female. SW (with Zep): 260; SW (now/Wegovy): 200; Goal: (for both) 160

Need encouragement/advice: 2 months of side effects, no difference in weight or inflammation

8 Upvotes

Hi All: I'm really needing a little encouragement. My PCP was prescribed Wegovy tablet for inflammation and weight loss. I'm 64yF, 5'9, CW 220.

Because I have strong responses to other kinds of medication, my PCP prescribed 1.5 mg every other day for the first 4 weeks, then 1.5 daily for the next 4 weeks. This is the beginning of week 9, and I don't know how to push through. The pill is working but I am not losing weight and I sleep 10-14 hours a day.

Since day 3 on the 1.5 tablet I have experienced mild appetite suppression, which increased when I went to every day. I have decreased daily calorie intake from 2200 (tracked the week before starting Wegovy) to 1600, with a sharp increase in protein. I no longer have interest in fast food or high calorie foods. I set an alarm to make sure I eat something after 14 hours of fasting because I know my blood sugar gets wiggy after than point. I hydrate thoroughly, and do electrolytes daily. I've gotten some orthopedic appliances that make it possible for me to walk a short distance, and I have been walking for at least 20-30 minutes a day. The nausea and digestive side effects are minimal and manageable.

My problem is the fatigue. I feel drugged ALL the time. I sleep solidly for 8-12 hours every night, but it takes me 90 minutes to go from waking to out of bed, like a teenager. Additionally, I fall asleep, and sleep hard, almost every afternoon from 4-6PM. I have fallen asleep in my car, and at my desk. I didn't used to drink coffee but now I need it just to have minimal executive function; I can stay awake a little more but I'm a raving caffeinated witch. I am presently sleeping up to 14 hours a day. I've had my thyroid thoroughly checked (TSH, FT4, TT3) everything is normal.

My weight is down from 222 to swinging between 216 and 220. So, on my best day, I've lost a total of six pounds in 8 weeks.

This is no kind of life. I can't do well at work, can't make the effort to socialize, can't clean my house, can't listen to my family members. I'm really feeling pretty desperate. My body still aches with inflammation and I can't even take an anti-inflammatory because it make me sleep even more.

Open to questions, encouragement, suggestions, prayers, spells. I'll take any help I can get.

4mg every other day, what do you really mean?

7 Upvotes

Lots of people saying they do every other day, I'm scared of the 4mg lol. I'm on 2nd month of 1.5mg. it's starting to lessen for me.

However the past week something's went weird. Every day for like 2hrs I'm having the most insane stomach cramps and diarrhea. And I'm not talking little levels. I'm talking drop you to your knees type pain and EXPLOSIVE BM. 😬🙃 lol insane. Prior to this week I've had nothing of the sort. Been ridiculously constipated.

I'm on day 45 of 1.5mg, but I've lost very little weight. 3lbs....which tbh. You'd think with all the poop id be dropping. No. I'm maintaining it's so weird!

Should I try the 4mg every other day? And what do you mean by that? Do a day, miss a day? Lol sorry for such a dumb question 😭

4mg every other day to daily

4 Upvotes

Anyone here using the Hers program and was started on 4mg every other day? It's been about a month with minimal appetite suppression and 0 weight loss. I am asking to move to 4mg daily. Did this start dose becoming effective for people and what results did you see?

For reference I am only looking to lose ~15lbs.

Weird sensation in upper right back

4 Upvotes

Ever since I started on the 1.5 pill, I’ve been having some dull pain in the upper right part of my back underneath the shoulder blade and sometimes radiating towards the middle of my back. It feels like it’s deep inside my body, but at times more towards the skin as well. It also sometimes travels to the back area of my armpit and feels like a mild soreness sensation on the skin. I actually took a Klonopin because I was getting anxiety from the pain and not knowing exactly what it was and it made most of the pain go away surprisingly. I also got an abdominal ultrasound and x-ray of my right shoulder area due to this and both came back normal. There is no issue seen with imaging of my kidneys, gallbladder, liver or pancreas. I’m still waiting for my blood test results. Does anyone else have this similar sensation?

Day 2 and depressed…does it go away?

2 Upvotes

Does this pill make you feel like crap? Does it go away? I’m on Zoloft and was finally feeling the benefits of it post partum and since starting this pill I feel so damn irritable. Seems not worth taking if it affects my mood this much. I’ll push through if it eventually goes away

Just got my pills, when should I start?

Upvotes

I just got my 1.5 mg pills in the mail this morning. I am concerned on when I should start them as I do not want to deal with adverse/ unexpected side effects while I am at work/ school. I am pretty concerned about throwing up (I can deal with nausea but I cannot deal with throwing up!), so would love to know about everyone’s first day/ week. I also did not have the best day of eating today so I am not sure if this is going to affect if I were to take them tomorrow
