Ozempic: 2 months in!

I'm 5'2, started at 175 and I'm now 144.8. Miserable before, much better now. Got two months of ozempic left since my coverage ended, so I'm sticking with it plus cutting sugar. Pretty much keto except around holidays and a funeral lunch at church today where I ate the bad stuff in tiny portions. Starting the treadmill again tonight. Target is 125.
 
Awesome progress. When did ozempic start kicking in for you? PCOS here, been on it almost 4 months now. Down 10 pounds. Seeing inches drop and feeling amazing.
 
Been on it for two and a half months now and dropped ten pounds. Blood sugar came down about thirty points. Progress is slow but I can't exactly exercise much at my age, though I do water aerobics three times a week.
 
Bad side effects hit hard but the obesity complications are way worse. Ozempic effects feel lighter. Looking forward to seeing you back here in another 8 months.
 
had lipedema surgeries and was told weight loss on my own was impossible. dropped 65lbs with semaglutide a year after the surgeries. they changed my body in ways i can't fix. wish i'd tried glp first but this was before they were available. trying not to live with regret.
 
I struggled with ozempic for six months and basically saw nothing on the scale, even at the top dose. I have lipedema, which might be part of it, but I was frustrated enough to switch to mounjaro. Really hoping this one gives me actual results because ozempic just didn't do much for me.
 
Pregabalin and Ozempic together is a combination worth tracking - pregabalin's mechanism can blunt the central appetite suppression side of GLP-1, which might explain why the GI effects are landing harder than the hunger reduction. Stress is also a real confounding factor at the plateau level; cortisol actively counteracts the satiety pathway. The 15 lbs before starting puts you in a different baseline position than someone starting from zero - the total loss context matters for reading the trajectory.
