Weight loss jabs

I'm about 6 months in on the Wegovy and 8 months on the Oviva programme. I've lost 30Kg to date, and the weight's now coming off at a steady 1-1.5Kg a week, though I'm not holding up much hope for Xmas!

I progressed up the doses month by month. I've been lucky and not had any significant side effects - just that input = output, and with a lot less going in, you can easily find yourself constipated. Keep your fibre consumption up or get some Fybogel or Movicol.

I'm only eating once a day and have no real cravings or hunger during the day. It makes it a lot easier to stick to a diet for a long time. I've also upped my exercise levels, including some resistance training to fight any muscle loss.

One thing - my desire to drink has gone right down. At home, I would happily crack open a few beers or a bottle of wine in the evening. Now it's just weekends, or if I'm out socially.

Leaving it to after Xmas sounds like a good plan - new year, new start,



I'm sorry that it didn't work for you.
Thanks for that. I’m not able to exercise so suspect the rate of loss will be slower, but need to lose quite a bit.
