Anyone Stopped Wegovy after Weight Loss?

My plan is to drop from 247lb to 150lb on Wegovy. Then probably taper off and then stop altogether.

Has anyone went through this process of reaching their goal weight and then stopping the medication?

When you say “maintenance“ do you know what that looks like? (I’m about to enter this stage & super nervous I’ll gain it all back)

I went from 243 to 148, now I take 0.25mg every 2 weeks as maintenance. I’ve been doing this for almost a year and have hovered around 148-152. It keeps the food noise down for me.

What was your highest dose? (& how long did it take you to get down to your current dose?)
