For me, Ozempic gets rid of the will to have snacks. Or, if I do have one I have no appetite to eat a meal later.I’m not someone with a big appetite but have gained weight due to age and snacking. Do you think ozempic will help. I can’t drop a lb no matter what atm.
Are you allowed to say the name of the FB group?An update on my Rybelsus journey:
Over the past month I’ve been on 3mg which isn’t supposed to be a properly effective dose but I’m in a FB group with people who have lost weight on it.
Good appetite suppression, I got full quickly but had a very active social calendar last month which made it hard. Didn’t drink enough water admittedly but by the end of the month I have definitely lost weight. Unfortunately it’s hard for me to tell how much because the medication slows the digestion of food so I’m always feeling quite full as I only have bowel movement once, max twice, a week. Because of that, I get on the scale but don’t always see the change. However my last empty weigh in was a good 4-5lbs off. I can feel it in my midsection and I can see it on myself so I’m pleased.
I had no side effects of the usual type unless I overate, then I would feel mildly queasy. However I did notice real exhaustion and fatigue in the last 2 weeks, so much so that I had to take a break for a few days and I do feel better now. I don’t know if that was Rybelsus or something else but I’m prepared to continue and my 7mg is about to be dispatched. I’ll have to power through if the fatigue continues.
I’m hoping that I’ll make better progress on the 7mg, and that I can get into a good rhythm with meal planning and getting back into the gym. More than any thing I appreciate the fact that I don’t feel the need to eat around the clock and I can just eat like a normal person. That said, I still have eyes bigger than my stomach: I will still go to a restaurant and order everything on the menu but now I just couldn’t finish it all.

No, you just select re-order on your account and have to update your weight etc. It’s much quicker after you’ve been approved once. I’ve had to send scales pics at 6 months again but that’s all.I’ve just got my Saxenda pens - first injection going to be tomorrowi ordered on Boots - if I order more pens do I have to go through the same rigamarole of the online consultation and then it having to get approved again? Seems such a faff.
Ozempic face is a catch phrase made up by the media. Anyone who loses a lot of weight through any method will be left with a less fat face.@raspberryjuice can I ask if you have has any noticeable effects on you face? I've read about ozempic face, which is basically where you lose weight on your face and get wrinkles and I am a bit worried. Got 50+lbs to lose but currently have no wrinkles and would like to stay that way for a few more years
No you just message them and ask for a new prescription and they will put it through. Just have to let them know what your current weight is and the dose you are on.I’ve just got my Saxenda pens - first injection going to be tomorrowi ordered on Boots - if I order more pens do I have to go through the same rigamarole of the online consultation and then it having to get approved again?

I know, that's why I clarified 'where you lose weight on your face and get wrinkles'. I was asking for personal experience.Ozempic face is a catch phrase made up by the media. Anyone who loses a lot of weight through any method will be left with a less fat face.
10lb to go is great!No you just message them and ask for a new prescription and they will put it through. Just have to let them know what your current weight is and the dose you are on.

I’m stuck at a plateau, currently on 3mg and have been for weeks now which was working well but the effects aren’t as strong anymore. I’m not exercising atm but think I’m going to have to start which I’m dreading. I’ve got 10lbs to lose until goal weight and my fitness is absolutely shocking so need to just bite the bullet. About to go pick up my new pens
Mine was so quick like next day as it has to be kept cool/refrigeratedHow long does it take to receive via online ordering?
I’m desperate to start asap.
