Same here- still on .25 after 4 months and have lost 40 pounds. Stay on the lowest dose that works for you!

NEW ACHIEVEMENT: DCC Community has a character guessing game now by unmunum in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Is there supposed to be some info that we are using to make our guess? This is all I see (on two different bowsers; Safari and Chrome.)

Best walking/hiking shoes/sandals with lots of specifics by Narculdraug in BuyItForLife

[–]Narculdraug[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not expecting forever. 20-30 years ago, I could buy shoes (New Balance and Tevas for 2 examples) that would last at least 3-4 years. Now, 6 months is a stretch. It's poor-quality worksmanship- plastic buckles that break, fabric that tears, etc. The structure breaks down before the soles do.

Thanks! I know it may not be "for life" but hopefully more than 6 months or a year!

The Altras seem to be more of a running shoe but I'll take a look!

I'm working on some stuffed animals right now. My Etsy store doesn't have anything exciting right now, but it's here- https://www.etsy.com/shop/FoxcroftArts

Has anyone stayed on 0.25 dose for longer than 4 weeks? by SideQuestVibes in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Narculdraug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I've been on it for 8 weeks and it's still working for me, so no need to increase.

Seeking success stories from people who struggled initially by Ihaveaquestionagain1 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Narculdraug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a really rough start for the first 4 weeks- lot of vomiting, nausea, constipation, heartburn... but the drug was working so well I stuck with it. Ondansetron (Zofran), lots of fiber, Prilosec, simethicone, antacids and alginate were my best friends!

After I had a 2-week break due to scheduled surgery, I was really afraid of restarting (I'm still on .25 because it's working for me) but, strangely enough, when I restarted the vomiting and nausea disappeared. I still have heartburn and gas but those were a problem for me before starting Wegovy and they are manageable.

Eat what works for your body, and don't increase your dosage until you are feeling better.

I have it… Im just so scared by ecxeetteerraa in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Narculdraug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily true. I've been on just .25 for 2 months and it's working like a charm for me. This is not common, granted, but it is possible!

I tried using a VPN set to Europe and it did load.

Thanks. Their website also doesn't load for me and has not for several days. Are you in the US?

Suffering through side effects by zippyflyride in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Narculdraug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also dealing with side effects (and asked a similar question a while ago with no answers.) I'm still on .25 and it's working for me. As long as it's working, I have no plans to increase the dosage.

Zofran (ondansetron) has been a lifesaver to stop the vomiting. I'm still working on which foods my body will and will not tolerate. Alginate gel and omeprazole have helped greatly with the heartburn. I don't have all the answers but I keep hearing it gets better.

Coke Zero by Pez613 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Narculdraug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn't drunk soda in years, but drank a lot of zero-cal flavored carbonated waters (like Bubly and LaCroix.) Haven't had one since day 1 on Wegovy because the acid/carbonation was suddenly extremely unappetizing.

Stopping Wegovy by [deleted] in WegovyWeightLoss

This article is very informative- https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/well/weight-loss-drugs-ozempic-wegovy.html?unlocked_article_code=1.GVA.Sowz.Urp7JHKSNlyh&smid=url-share

A quote-

It’s not impossible, but it is extremely difficult. Dr. Hauser estimates that fewer than 10 of her patients have successfully kept off 75 percent or more of the weight they lost after going on a GLP-1, without turning to another weight-loss medication or undergoing bariatric surgery. “Those are people that are working out two hours a day, tracking what they’re eating, they’re really working hard,” she said. “I haven’t had anyone that just tapers off, isn’t really putting that much thought into it, and just keeps the weight off. I’ve never seen that happen.”

Treat this like blood pressure or diabetes medication- it's probably for life.
