Wegovy stopped working

[Anonymous]

I’ve lost 40 lbs and have 10 left to go. I’ve been on Wegovy for 2 years and it stopped working. I am still taking 2.4 and I’m craving sweets. My cardiologist says she could switch to Zepbound. This will take some insurance challenges but I can get coverage.

Help! I’m slowly gaining weight back.

Perhaps you should stop eating as much and exercise. It will do the body well.

Yeah, that happened to me too. It makes sense, I don’t think people will be walking around skeletal on it. I hit a set point that I got to basically as a young adult, about ten lbs into overweight, and I’ve just stayed there happily for about a year. So you won’t necessarily gain everything back.

There’s a lot they don’t know about set points and metabolism but it’s great you lost 40lbs.

Before your cravings get worse, start tracking your food. Aim for high protein.

If you need sweet, go for protein shake or protein pudding (dry pudding mix with a protein shake). Or fresh fruit with greek yogurt dip.

Oh darn. How unfortunate.
