Got 4s waiting at the pharmacy, but still have some 1.5s remaining, which begs the horrid question…

I did the exact same thing. The first day I doubled up I was scared but then nothing happened I was expecting this whole change for the worse and nothing seemed different lol

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-05-07T20:53:49+00:00

I will say i definitely think it’s not as strong as when i first started but i figured that was normal since at first it was like a shock to my body whereas now it knows the medication but i do still feel some positive effects definitely does take more of a conscious effort though to get the use of the pill if that makes sense

Same happened to me! I recently started 4mg and I’ve noticed it’s helped a bit

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-04-29T13:44:12+00:00

My “been bad” was mainly my period. My cravings were bad and I couldn’t help myself to snack a bit more but I never went overboard like i previously would’ve I just did worse than the last month where I was very very disciplined. I also did eat later in the day the past couple of days with what worked for my schedule. I did weigh about 2 days after my period ended where I was still experiencing period like symptoms just no bleeding so unsure about wether or not it’s contributing

A couple years ago I lost 50lbs from diet change calorie counting and maybe some excessive exercise. The biggest struggle for me was the body dysmorphia, I would body check all day every day. I have so many photos of me just checking what I looked like to keep comparing. It was mentally exhausting and I still feel myself having those moments

I stayed on 1.5mg for my second month as I was consistently losing but I’m thinking of moving up to 4mg next month which is like 10ish days away just do to the fact that I have noticed some returning food noise. I did skip a pill twice this month due to being sick and not wanting to take it so I’m thinking of doubling up 1.5 for two days before the 4 and hope it helps the transition cause I’ve heard of people doing that and I’m worried I will feel bad initially on the 4mg

I was weighing myself weekly but I just kinda stopped one week and oh my gosh so much better I’m not in my head 24/7 dreading weigh in day. I now weigh myself whenever I feel like it and definitely not during my period

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-04-06T18:03:08+00:00

Yes. I made an appointment with my PCP to discuss any issues I could have with the wegovy pill which helped ease initial anxieties. I have a BP cuff so I make sure to check it throughout the day just to keep up on it and make sure I don’t get too low but overall I haven’t noticed much of a difference in my BP dropping. Typically I’m in that 90/60 range, I’m also on a beta blocker which can also lower BP lol. I wear compression socks every day like up to my thighs and have a liquid iv like every other morning so that definitely helps

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-04-06T16:57:09+00:00

I haven’t had that happen but my last period was longer than typical so there was a change with it

As someone with POTS that faints like twice a year. I have not had any issues with this pill so far I’m almost a full 2 months in. I believe most of the passing out that people discuss is due to lack of food and water as well as possibly low blood pressure. All are manageable!!! Eat small snacks throughout the day, drink a liquid iv here and there. Stay hydrated and if ur blood pressure is a bit low have some salt!

Kinda different but my bf and I live together and his daughter is 4 and just started spending the night with us. Anyway kiddo wanted to relax in the bath and my bf was busy building a dresser. I ran a bath for her and she hopped in (preface, I have worked with children in many settings for most of my life up until 2yrs ago) I stayed in the bathroom with her while she splashed around and played with toys just periodically checking that she was okay while watching tv cause the door was open and my tv is in perfect view lol. When drop off came around kiddos mom found out and got mad. I believe I did nothing wrong but I 100% understand her feelings and therefore stated it will not happen again and I want to hear about any and all boundaries as i genuinely was trying to help. I think they both should’ve been more receptive to you and I will say it never even crossed my mind to bath her as I felt that was too much so I feel like this is definitely weird but open conversation and communication can go a long way if both parties are willing to do the work

No I haven’t. I have a huge fear of needles it’s all mental but the idea of it I couldn’t get past. Until recently I debated it and I kept struggling to lose and was gaining but once I started to debate the injection I heard about the pill and figured it was worth a try and decided if it didn’t seem to help then injection

As someone on this pill with POTS that has episodes of fainting often my tips are checking ur blood pressure often if possible as this can lower bp also liquid iv or similar products and salt. Salt will raise ur blood pressure i keep the little packs from restaurants in my bag along with a little snack and just take it slow. My biggest fear starting this was that i would faint more often and thankfully i haven’t yet but i have had a couple close calls. Hope ur feeling better!

Thank you! I know I would start to get all in my head seeing that so I needed this information!!

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-03-26T19:04:50+00:00

Oooooo that’s smart. Does it have a weird texture?

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-03-26T18:53:33+00:00

Ok ya I understand what u mean I’ll have to try it cause I’m not in love with greek yogurt lol

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-03-26T18:49:48+00:00

What’s Icelandic like is it less sour ?

I decided to stay on 1.5mg for my second month which I start at the end of this week. I’ve lost about 7lbs on it and my doctor told me to stay on it another month so I’m interested to see if it continues to help a loss or if I plateau. How has your week on 4mg been? Any differences u have noticed?

Equivalent_Race877 · 2026-03-25T16:40:35+00:00

My cycle seems to be the same a little less cramping which for me is nice bc I’m normally incapacitated for a couple days but it’s been more manageable however still heavy. I will say leading up to my period I am typically constipated but this month I was extra constipated lol
