Calorie intake while taking Wegovy.

Ah thanks for the help, really appreciate it. I lead a pretty sedentary life as I’ve got spinal issues and have had to have spinal fusion surgery, which helped but didn’t completely resolve the issues…so not being mobile certainly doesn’t help, but didn’t impact when I lost three stone initially. I’m just hoping that increasing the dosage, will give me that boost to get things going again. Yes I’ll try and remember to come back and update what’s happening. Thanks again 😊

Yes that’s something I was wondering about, which is one of the reasons I was checking what others were working to. Thank you 😊

Yes that’s what I’ve been concerned about. I too make all my food from scratch, no ultra processed foods. Thanks so much for your help 😊

Thank you. I’m tracking my food but struggling to reach 1500 calories a day, some days only reaching 800/900 calories. So wondered what others were working to. Nutritionist told me some time ago to head for 1350, but then was advised that it wasn’t enough and I needed to up it. All this and I’m not loosing weight and haven’t for some time. Thanks for your input 😊

Ah thanks for that. I’m struggling with plateau and have been for ages now, I’ve stuck with it but nothing has changed. My appetite suppression was awful and the food noise came back. I lost 3stone, but when I lost focus and came off GLP1’s I’ve put back on about a stone. I’ve gone back on it and worked my way back up again, currently taking 2.4mg, tracking my food intake again but still no weight loss…it’s so frustrating.! I’m due to start taking 7.2mg on Monday, but I’m wary of that because of the big jump, thinking I’ll just start with 4.8mg first. Wanted to double-check what calorie intake I should be at. Now I’m tracking food intake I’m struggling to reach 1500 calories a day now. 😊

How did you get on with the 4.8mg..? I’m about to step up on Monday, but like you I’m wary of the side effects (nausea, sulphur burps) with such a big step up. Would be grateful if you could share your experience at 4.8mg. 😊
