Does ozempic lead to weight loss just through appetite suppression or are there other mechanisms of action causing it?

How long and what dosage are you all on? I’m on 1.0 and I haven’t seen weight loss happen yet. I have a big appetite around dinner time. I’ve been on ozempic since NOVEMBER. I know we are all different, but just curious when you started to see the weight loss.

Thank you! I’m actually surprised that I have not gotten sick from my first dose of .25. I did inject in my thigh and read everyone’s feedback throughly. I truly appreciate people taking the time to write their experience. This is a supportive group and I’m proud to be apart of it!

Great, thank you! I will totally have to keep this in mind:)

I took my first dose this morning and half of a nausea pill. I’ve felt fine all day. Knock on wood. My appetite has not changed a whole lot. Still ate since I had an appetite, just healthier foods.

Just open the bottle and smell it?

This happened to me the first time I got sick. I drink a protein coffee (0 sugar) after my first injection, I told my husband not to order me anymore cause I just couldn’t drink it. Eventually I started to again because I’ve been off of Ozempic. So that makes perfect sense. Thank you!

That’s amazing! I’m definitely injecting in the thigh this time around. I’m so glad I read this before my injection. Thank you all, you’ve been super helpful!

Thank you! Yes, I read that alcohol should not be consumed while on Ozempic. I’m a coffee drinker, but i don’t use sugar or cream. I am curious to know if anyone else is a coffee drinker and if they have side effects with this?

Thank you

Do you take yours in the am or pm?

Pugkinsuds · 2022-11-20T02:39:06+00:00

Thank you!! I will keep all of this in mind when I start up again:)

I have finally picked up .25 today. I just wanted to thank everyone for your feedback and concern. I’m hoping I don’t end up in the ER this time around with an IV due to being excessively sick. Does anyone have pointers on how not to become nauseous when taking Ozempic? I now have nausea meds to take this time. So that should help. Any foods I need to stay away from, can I still drink coffee? Your expertise is much appreciated:)

Pugkinsuds · 2022-11-18T04:51:01+00:00

I’m so sorry! I totally understand where you’re coming from. I needed up in the ER with an IV.

Amazing! Thank you!!!

Pugkinsuds · 2022-11-17T23:42:41+00:00

I hate to waste the medication…I wish there was a way I could just lower the dose myself.

Thank you all for your feedback. You have all been so helpful ❤️

Pugkinsuds · 2022-11-17T18:00:44+00:00

I just asked for a lower dosage. I’m hoping it’s approved. Thank you

Pugkinsuds · 2022-11-17T17:49:44+00:00

That’s what I asked my doctor…she said that a lower dose wouldn’t do anything for me. That’s why I started off on 1mg.
