I’ve been on Wegovy for about a year. I believe it helps with both. But this is very complicated stuff, and I’d look into the research. The ramifications of the effect on metabolism are a little scary if you ever have to come off of it.

They mostly work by making your brain think you’re full and satiated with many fewer calories than is normal for you.

For example, sometimes I feel hungry but just not in the “mood” to eat. This is in contrast to my pre-glp times, when I might not be hungry but still in the mood for something.

It does not speed up metabolism.

It slows down stomach emptying so you feel full longer.

Following with same question and interested in the answers

My metabolism is shot and I eat very very low calorie. My doc suggested I try but my issue is not food noise. Does it help with actually metabolism or is it more the reduction of calories in?
