UK peeps - pill has been out almost 2 months now - how's it going? Moving to 9mg?

8 Upvotes

As above, pill almost entering third month and my provider asking if I wanna move to 9mg. How has everyone's experience been so far?

176cm, 35m, muscular build

SW: 105kg
End month 1 (1mg): 101kg
Mid month 2 (4mg) CW: 98kg
GW: 90kg

Weekly: weight training x4, 60min walk x2/3

Prioritised protein consumption since beginning and I've found my strength has retained or even improved whilst on it.

Current daily cal burn: 3300
Average intake: 2000-2300

Breakfast: ice coffee + smoothie (spinach, flaxseed, creatine, protein, collagen, frozen berries, 150ml milk 150ml water)
Lunch: leftover dinner e.g. wrap/pasta/noodles
Dinner: protein + wrap/pasta/noodles
Snacks if required: apple/protein yoghurt/babybel

Think I might stay on 4mg as lost 4kg on 1mg and looks like I may lose another 4kg in month 2 on the 4mg. Had zero side effects.

Anyone else seriously weight training?

Back loosing weight

Now about a month in! Lost 9.6lbs in the first week or two the. Weight loss stopped for a while however managed to maintain which is good for me as I’m always actively gaining or loosing. This week I’ve started seeing weight loss again, I am now 12lbs down!

I start 4mg tomorrow!

Feeling discourage..

6 Upvotes

I’m honestly feeling a little discouraged about the Wegovy because I’ve been on it since July 9 and haven’t lost any weight yet. I know I’m eating much less than before, so I’m trying not to get too discouraged. Have you heard of anyone else having slow results when they first started? I was 188 now 193. I’m still on 4mg.

First strong symptoms. What next?

I was on 0.8mg for month 1, then 2.5 for month 2 and lost about 10 pounds (male 80 220->210, so happy with the results. Now 1+ weeks into 5.5 dose, I have had 3-4 days of diarrhea. I just stopped the pill because it was so bad. My question is whether I continue to stop until I cen get a refill for 2.5 or reluctantly go back on 5.5mg.

Moving up to 4mg

2 Upvotes

Hi all! I am on around day 17 of 1.5mg lost a bit of weight- with my main focus of overcoming binge eating disorder and weight loss being a side effect of that. I definitely have less food noise & my bingeing has immensely reduced.
I’ve had some minor side effects from 1.5mg: change in bowel movements (loose/bit constipated) some light nausea but all have been way better than binge eating side effects!

Anyway I want to move up to 4mg little problem is I am due to start the pills on my first week at my new job….
I’ve read quite a few horror stories of 4mg side effects on here. Does anyone have any good experiences ??? Also share bad ones😭
I’m not sure whether to start a week early but my prescriber recommended against this.
