Just took my Wegovy dose, sharing how it's going

Not sure if anyone else here started on the oral version like I did, but I've been working up through the doses and I'm finally at the 14mg tablets. Down about 12 lbs so far and the appetite quieting down has been the biggest thing for me, even with all the amazing food options down here in Miami tempting me daily. Anyone else find the oral form slower going but still effective, or is that just my experience?

I never did the oral, but the food noise going quiet was the part that actually changed things for me too. Miami would be a real test though, what's the one thing down there you still can't walk past?

Never did the tablets but the food noise going quiet was the whole game changer for me too. Curious whether the 14mg feels different from the lower tabs or if it was just a steady climb the whole way?

#6

I did the tablets first too and the ramp was slow for me as well, though once it built up the food noise dropped off in a way I hadn't expected. Still think about a good plate of ropa vieja less than I used to, which honestly surprises me

I never did the tablets, went straight to the shot, but the appetite quieting is the whole thing for me too. Vegas is basically a 24 hour buffet so I get the temptation part.

I did tablets too and it did feel slower than what people describe on the shots, but the quiet in my head around food showed up anyway. Eating out is where I noticed it most, I stopped caring about the bread basket

#15

Also on the tablets and the ramp did feel gradual for me too, though once I got to the higher dose the food noise went real quiet. Miami would be a tough test for anyone.

#17

honestly not on the oral myself, but the food thing hits home. I'm in New Orleans and the appetite quieting is the only reason I can walk past a po-boy counter without slowing down.

Oral user here as well - the 14mg step was a game changer for me too, and the slower ramp ended up being worth it. Down about 50 lbs now and the food noise staying quiet is still the best part. Sounds like you're right on track.
