It feels disheartening to spend this money every month (insurance does help cover some) and see such minimal progress. Especially when you see some amazing transformations in that same time period online! Anyone else just a super slow responder? I am eating such small portions, prioritizing protein, exercising regularly. It is frustrating.

I think this is a good result. You will lose more if you stay with it. It is slow but steady..

I lost 40 pounds after 16 months on Wegovy. That's an average of about 10 pounds every four months. So you are right on track. Keep it up!

I am losing slowly as well. I lost 9 pounds in 2.5 mos but I do notice I am losing inches: my waist and belly are noticeably slimmer.

OP here - I just measured and I lost two inches from my waist! So something is happening... just slowly.

I think what is good about these drugs is that they help you in long term dieting. It's hard to keep at it for a year in order to lose a significant amount of weight. It takes a long time to see results even without drugs. It's harder to stay motivated without them. I think that's also a reason why people are successful using them; they keep your appetite at bay and help you through plateau stages.
