For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am just 10 days in having been prescribed it in the NHS via Oviva. The run-in to receiving the meds has been really useful. I think success is dependent on coaching and mindset and lots of hints and tips via their app on how to get your balance of carbs, protein, and veg right. So far, minimal side effects at 0.25mg just a bit of nausea and headaches. First week, 4lb loss, which I am really pleased with. This is a two-year journey for me, so slow and steady is key I think."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Lost 10 lbs in 3.5 weeks, but the side effects mean I will be stopping. Diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps, headaches, bloating. Felt ill most of the time. Working and traveling problematic due to having to be close to a toilet!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I've been taking Wegovy since September (2024). I initially did not like the way it made me feel. I was experiencing constipation, headaches, and nausea. My next dose was 0.50, which the pharmacy was out of until this past April 2025. I was determined to see if I could withstand the side effects. My appetite was suppressed immediately. I experienced constipation, which I counteracted with stool softeners every day. I took Zofran for the nausea. I had started riding my stationary bike around the same time that I started Wegovy. On April 17th, 2025, I started walking 30 minutes a day. I am now at a 1.7 dose. Side effects are minimal. I noticed that if I am constipated, I would get nauseous. Stay away from heavy grease. I consume a protein shake every morning and try to eat meat as much as I can as I do not really have a taste for meat or I no longer like alcohol. I am happy that I tried it again. I am 6'1" and was 283. I am 266. I want to be 240. Yay!"
