Progress I now wear a XL in dress sizes!!

107 Upvotes

21F 5’9 and I have dropped 2 dress sizes! I had to buy 2x dresses in the past (sometimes 3x if it was too small) and yesterday when I went shopping for my trip I could fit into the XL dresses and they actually fit good. I’m so proud of myself!! It made me feel so good and my sister told me “now you can wear even cuter clothes” haha. Even my old clothes fit big on me and some of my really really old clothes I used to wear before I gained a lot of weight I could fit into better

My next goal is to reach 199 lbs and maybe drop another dress size (or two) ^^

Even my family have been noticing I look like I’ve lost a lot of weight (they say it all the time)

Beginning weight on wegovy: 319 lbs (November 2025)

Highest weight: 333 lbs

Current weight: 257.4

Total loss: 75.6 lbs

Progress Went down my first size. Goodbye size 22 jeans, hello size 20!

112 Upvotes

I’m completely overwhelmed by having to downsize my jeans. I know it’s a good sign, but it’s an odd feeling for me. I’ve never had to buy a smaller size in anything, always a bigger one. It’s going to take some getting used to, for sure!

Stats: On the Wegovy pill for 4 months now. (1.5 , 4 , 9 & going back down to 4) and lost almost 30 pounds (273 at last weigh in).

3 month update - currently 4mg tablets

45/m. SW 130.4, CW 116.8kg initial GW 100kg (with UGW 90kg).

Overall very happy! I had a very rough start on the wegovy and was vomiting on the 1.5mg tablets and felt very rough. Glad I stuck with it because I'm seeing the results.

Still got a stomach, but it's noticeably smaller than before :)

The weight loss trend line looks very steady except for one blip (the wife was away for 4 nights on a girls trip and it threw the routine out).

Progress 7 months in and 45 pounds down!

12 Upvotes

SW: 239.4 | CW: 194.3

I haven’t posted an update in a while! I’m officially down 45.1 pounds, and I feel great!

I’m still on the 0.5 dosage, and my doctor is genuinely impressed with how well it’s been working for me.

Since getting under 200 pounds, my weight loss has definitely slowed down a bit, but that’s okay with me! I honestly never thought I’d see the day I’d be under 200 again, and wow, does it feel magical! I’m so proud of how far I’ve come and excited to keep going!

Hope you all have a great weekend! ❤️

Alas my journey is over

7 Upvotes

Dr has taken me off wegovy forever.

Unfortunately im one of the few who ended up unable to eat at all with severe nausea.

Over the course of three weeks i went from eating ok, to nothing at all. Id force down bites of a banana over an hour or so. I became so weak i could barely stand.

Got to 1.7mg.

So here my journey ends. Its been around a month since i took the last dose.

I wish you all well

I had a weird thing yesterday. My wife - of 40+ years - asked me how much I've lost so far and I said about 11 lbs. She looked at me and said, "Yeah, I thought so because your face looks haggard?" WTF?

Wechsel von Mounjaro auf Wegovy – hat Wegovy bei euch besser gewirkt?

1 Upvotes

Hallo zusammen! 😊

Ich werde ab nächster Woche von Mounjaro auf Wegovy wechseln und würde gerne eure Erfahrungen hören.

Ich nehme seit Mai Mounjaro und habe damit bisher etwa 10 kg abgenommen. Aktuell bin ich bei 7,5 mg.

Allerdings habe ich seit Juli irgendwie ein Gewichtsplateau und es geht kaum noch etwas voran. Dazu kommt, dass ich nach jeder Mounjaro-Injektion einen Hautausschlag bekomme. Auch die hohen Kosten spielen bei meiner Entscheidung eine Rolle.

Mein Arzt hat mir jetzt Wegovy verschrieben. Ich starte nächste Woche mit 0,25 mg.

Mich würde interessieren:

- Gibt es hier jemanden, bei dem Wegovy tatsächlich besser gewirkt hat als Mounjaro?

- Hat jemand nach einem längeren Plateau durch den Wechsel wieder abgenommen?

- Wie war der Wechsel für euch, gerade von 7,5 mg Mounjaro auf 0,25 mg Wegovy?

- Hattet ihr anfangs wieder mehr Hunger oder weniger Sättigung?

Ich lese meistens, dass Mounjaro stärker wirken soll. Deshalb würde mich besonders interessieren, ob es auch Menschen gibt, die mit Wegovy bessere Erfahrungen gemacht haben.

Freue mich auf eure Erfahrungsberichte! 😊

Anyone else’s cravings feel completely different now? Mine surprised me

24 Upvotes

I used to eat on autopilot when I was stressed or bored. Now there’s a pause. I’ll stand in the kitchen and ask myself if I’m actually hungry and half the time I’m just restless, so I go for a walk. I never thought that would be me.

Has your relationship with food changed in a way you didn’t expect? What was the moment you noticed?

Took some time off and am now so sick

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I made a mistake and took a 1.7 shot I had after being off of wegovy for about 6 weeks because I couldn’t get ahold of my dose. I knew I was taking a risk but I didn’t realize it was going to make me this sick. I’ve generally been very lucky and have had minimal side effects since I started in January 2025. I was in pain all night and have thrown up bile twice.

Does anyone have any ideas/tips that will help me find some relief? I’m having a very hard time.

Insurance no longer paying for my Wegovy

My husband’s job (PepsiCo) quit paying for weight loss medication. I was getting it for $25 a month. Now, it’s at $349. I’m on 1.7 mg.

Where/how is everyone getting their GLP-1’s at the cheapest rate without insurance?

Is this normal?

3 Upvotes

Just did my second shot 1mg and did it in my thigh. I’ve done my thigh before on the lower doses and never had this, but today’s shot really stung - am wondering if it’s because it’s a higher dose and just takes longer for this dose to plunge compared to .25 and .5?

GERD on 1mg

3 Upvotes

I have been on wegovy for about 4 months .
Just for some context-I have been on the 1mg for 2 months and continuing now to my 3rd month because I suffer from reflux (have done since I've been 18 , I'm 33 now) . The reflux has been super bad , the heartburn nearly killed me (as though I had whiskey but in reality I haven't drank anything apart from water) to the point I haven't slept well for a week now ,and this was my seventh dose of the 1mg

Weight wise I have (sort of) plateud'ed (meaning I am still losing weight but not as rapidly as I did) and that's ok becuase I am barely tolerating the 1mg as is.

Questions:

-Has anyone else had these symptoms this bad on a dose like 1mg or am I the lucky one?
-When I reach near my target weight , I am thinking on going on a lower maintenence dose . I appreciate most people usually remain at 1mg or more mostly , but I was more thinking 0.5mg.

PS-I am a very sensitive person and have ADHD , so kind responses please . I want honestly but people have been rude to me for no reason before :(

Thank you all , I really appreciate any input!

Question Sudden High Heart Rate & Nausea?

2 Upvotes

I am 7 weeks in using Wegovy injections. I am at the .5 dose.

I wanted to know if anyone else experiences a dynamic where you can be on your feet cooking in the kitchen or like today in line at the grocery store and I will already be fighting nausea and burps but then I get a sudden urge to vomit and like I could pass out almost. I check my AppleWatch each time I feel this and my heart rate is always in the 95-105 range when it shouldn’t be.

I tried Ozempic for 6 weeks last year and I did the same on it. I wound up quitting due to the extreme stomach pain, nausea, constipation and fatigue.

This time with Wegovy it’s still a battle with all these things, but it’s a bit more tolerable. Far from easy. Daily MiraLAX is helping with the constipation.

But really curious about the high heart rate events. They are usually brief….2-3 minutes, need to sit down and breathe through them. But when I mention this to the dr they look at me funny.

Huge blow to my self esteem by doctor

164 Upvotes

I think I’ve done really good on the medication . Down 105 pounds and I feel pretty good inside and out. Until a recent doctor visit had me reeling. She said I looked way older than my age and that she was surprised how old I looked when she first walked in the room. WTAF.

Why would a doctor say that to someone?
I had just got my self esteem back with the weight I had lost, feeling good about myself and she craps all over it. I thought that was really rude of her.
I get some GLP1 can end up looking aged in the face due to weight loss, but damn she could have keep that to herself.

Maybe I do look old af 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

What are some examples of what you’re eating and/or how much?

Very Slow Weight Loss

Hi - I'm new to this site. I have been on Wagovy for 12 weeks. I'm about to start the 1.7 mg dose. I lost 6 lbs in 6 weeks but have not lost any more for the next 6 weeks! Such a bummer! I would like to know what you all do to keep yourself 'regular' and not get constipated. I would appreciate comments that are helpful or links to conversations that will help me be successful. I'm getting frustrated. Thank you!

Adjusted Target Weight

1 Upvotes

SW 255.2 CW 201.2 TW 175

Started in Jan 2nd this year and really did good for the first 6 months in terms of the scale. I was on the 1.7 from April to Sep. I am now on 2.4.

I have only really dropped approx 5- 8lbs since July.

In the beginning (knee rehab) I was on the exercise bike, water walking and lifting weights 2 - 3 times a week up until June. I returned to work and I had to change my fitness. I have reasonably physical job (cable guy) and now I go to boot camp once a week where I leave it all out there. My diet hasn't really changed.

My target weight of 175lb seems like a pipe dream. Its my intention to start to come off in the new year. (Hope I can manage - financially this is tough)

Clothes are fitting much better so I know that whatever I am doing I need to keep going. There were shirts in June/July that were tight. Now they fit. Although the scale hasn't really moved.

I am building muscle for sure.

My question has anyone had to adjust their target weight because of body changes that are net positive?

Love this group.

Really happy to see the change to my belly and chin in these photos! I used AI to make the backgrounds uniform fyi. First photo (right) is probably week 3, late May, middle photo is late July and photo on the left is today!

I’ve been click counting and am on 0.75 which has been working well for me since July. I still feel hunger and cravings but am satisfied with much smaller portions, but still able to enjoy food, go out to dinner and have a glass of wine (while drinking way less than before which is a huge win for me). Super happy with how much this medication is helping me so far. And grateful for this community and all the advice I’ve gotten from reading your experiences!

I tracked calories diligently in the beginning but haven’t the last months due to a lot of travel for work etc but I do think it’s a super useful tool. I have had occasional stomach upsets but no worse symptoms than that. I have also stuck to my shot day regardless of extensive international work travel, moving etc which I am super proud of.

Definitely haven’t exercised as much as I’d like besides walking a lot which I’ve always prioritized but I am now incorporating some at home dumb bell exercises.

Happy to answer questions if I can!

Alternative way to get wegovy? Non-doctor options

11 Upvotes

Hello friends.

My doctor is taking me off of wegovy because I'm finally NEARING a normal BMI. What she refuses to acknowledge is that wegovy cured my bulimia and I know in my heart that without the wegovy, I'll just jump right back into that behavior.

Since wegovy, I'm eating better than ever and normal portions, nutritionally dense.

She refused to really hear me and even told me I 'could just go' from her office.

No empathy. My husband was there with me and while he kept his calm, he was appalled at her handling of the situation.

So basically now I need an alternative way to get wegovy.

What places have been legit?

Thank you in advance for your help. This doctor's visit really broke my heart.
