For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am on week 6, .5. So far, it has not done much other than a little heartburn and extra gas. Have not lost weight and actually gained a few pounds, has not curbed my appetite, so to be fair, I have been eating more than I should because of my appetite still there. Hanging in there and hopefully I will see a change going forward. The side effects have not been enough to make me give up."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Have been using this Wegovy for about 3 months with absolutely NO results. I do get really bad heartburn after my injections. I'm on the highest dose that you can be on, and it hasn't helped with suppressing my appetite at all. Worthless drug. Don't waste your money. I gave it my all, and I'm done with this stuff."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Horrible experience after taking just the first dose. I’m going on my third week of being out of work. I have never been this sick. Violently vomiting one hour after my first and only dose. Heartburn, no energy, brain fog, couldn’t even speak coherently for the first 48 hours after taking. This stuff is like poison. Do not take it."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "First of all, this does work. I lost over ten pounds in 6 weeks. The weight just fell off. Second of all, this was the worst experience I have ever had with a prescribed medication. Well, I started at the lowest dose and took that for 4 weeks before moving to the next dose, which I believe was 0.5 mg. The maintenance dose is 2.4 mg, I believe. How anyone makes it to the 2.4 mg is beyond me. I made it to the second dose of 0.5 mg before I threw in the towel. This stuff is WICKED. I spent 6 weeks of my life with an upset stomach, the absolute worst reflux and heartburn I have ever had, and constant nausea. I had to literally force myself to eat. Would not recommend. The side effects and the price are not worth it. Easy to lose weight when you are starving yourself and feel too sick to eat. Once I stopped, it took a few days to feel better and the weight came back lightening quick plus a few. Not worth the misery in my opinion."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I’m on Week 15 of treatment and have lost nothing. On the first dose of 0.75 mg, I experienced heartburn, fullness, and zero appetite for 5 days. I was hopeful that it had finally started to work. On subsequent doses of 0.75 mg and 1 mg, and now on 1.7 mg, I’ve felt no effects from Wegovy. I’ve tried switching injection sites from my abdomen to my arm with no effect."
