[quote=Anonymous]It was similar for me. Don't get frustrated. Remember that technically you are not at a therapeutic dose until 1.7 or 2.4.

I lost 12 pounds in my first four weeks on the 0.25 and then didn't lose any for like 3 weeks. Then I started losing again, but not as fast as in the beginning. This is normal -- expected weight  loss on Wegovy is .5 to 1lb per week. It can be faster at the very beginning, but you can't take that as the standard. Be patient, and don't get overly frustrated with lack of loss until you get up to 2.4 (which probably won't even be an issue, you will probably lose again within another week or two like I did).

I am at week 13 and have lost 20lbs. So 12lbs lost in the first four weeks and then 8lbs over the last 9 weeks, including a couple of weeks where I lost none at all. FWIW, I'm still on 0.5 because I have side effects and I'm losing, so my doctor is not having me go up to a dose of 1 yet.

It takes time to lose on Wegovy, and the weight loss is supposed to be slow. Many of us get excited when we drop a lot at the beginning, but that isn't sustainable and isn't how it tends (or is supposed) to work. YMMV, of course. But be patient.

I have had to track my food to make sure I'm eating enough, lol. So be patient. [/quote]
