New Here...AND To Glp-1

Hello, all. I'm new here but have bee reading some very supportive posts by you guys and would like to join in. I just began taking Wegovy for the 1st time last week. Keeping my fingers crossed for some noticeable results.

Welcome! The first weeks can feel slow, but stick with it - I'm on tirzepatide now and down 22 lbs, though the early days on a lower dose were pretty quiet for me too. Reading through the threads here helped me a lot when I started, so you're in the right place.

Welcome aboard. I barely noticed anything my first week either, then the appetite quieting down snuck up on me around week three or so, and that's when things really started moving. Sounds like you're already off to a good start just by lurking and reading here like I did.

How are you handling injection-day fatigue? Has your sleep changed at all since starting?

So happy to have you here, welcome. My last check-up came back looking great.

Week one feels like nothing is happening for a lot of us, so don't read too much into it. I'm down 70 lbs and the early weeks were the slowest feeling part of the whole ride. Glad you decided to stop lurking and post.

Week 1 was pure quiet for me too, then the appetite chill crept in around week 3 and that's when things really started moving. Down 17 lbs since starting and honestly the food noise going quiet was the first sign it was working. Curious what side effects (if any) you've noticed so far.

Welcome! I'm on Zepbound and my first couple weeks felt like a dud too, but around week 3 the food noise started fading and I've dropped about 18 lbs since. Hang in there, the quiet start is normal for a lot of us.

The slow start threw me off too, but once the food noise faded I knew it was doing something. I'm only down 8 lbs so far but that quiet in my head was the first real sign. Welcome to posting instead of lurking.

The waiting game at the start is real, but it sounds like you're off to a fine beginning. I lurked for months before posting too and wish I'd jumped in sooner. Curious whether you're noticing any appetite shift yet or still in the quiet phase.

My first weeks were quiet too but the first thing I noticed was how much smaller my portions got without trying, then the 15 lbs kind of snuck up on me over a few months. Keep posting how it goes, it's fun comparing notes with people just starting out.

I'm a few months in and down around 30 lbs, and honestly the first real sign for me was grocery shopping stopping being tempting. Week one can feel like nothing is happening, but it builds faster than you'd expect once it kicks in. Glad you came out of lurking, this place keeps me sane.

Welcome, and good timing -- I'm on Mounjaro at 7.5 myself and down 32 lbs, and week one felt exactly the same quiet. Somewhere around week three food noise started fading for me, so don't panic if nothing dramatic happens right away.

Found my sweet spot dose and I'm not in a hurry to go higher. I waited an extra cycle before my last bump just to be sure.

Welcome aboard! I'm in Toronto and on Ozempic myself, down about 29 lbs so far -- the early weeks felt quiet for me too, then the appetite change snuck up on me around the same time as others here. Good luck with it, hope the results show up for you soon.

Welcome, glad you finally jumped in after lurking. I was skeptical early on too but somewhere

Week one is the quiet stretch for a lot of us, so don't read much into it yet. I'm on Ozempic myself in Phoenix and the appetite shift really kicked in a few weeks in for me. Glad you came out of lurk mode, welcome.

Hang in there through these first few weeks -- mine felt uneventful at first too, then around week three I realized I'd stopped thinking about food all day. Down 9 lbs since starting, mostly from just eating way less without white-knuckling it. Good luck with the Wegovy, hope it clicks for you soon.

First week being quiet was true for me too on Ozempic -- I didn't feel much until the appetite noise faded around week three, and I'm down 12 lbs since. The waiting part is the hardest, honestly. Glad you came out of lurking to post.

Another vote for patience here -- I noticed almost nothing at the start, but once the food noise settled down for me the changes came fast. Almost a year in and 32 lbs gone, so it stuck. Welcome, and glad you stopped just reading and posted.
