GLP1 and no weight loss

Posted by marywnord @marywnord, May 27 9:25am

I’ve been on Zepbound for 6 weeks and I’m seeing no results. Thoughts?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Bariatric Surgery & Weight Loss Support Group.

I don’t take Zepbound, but it’s helped me if I work with a nutritionist to pin down my daily intake (proper healthy fats, whole grains, lean protein, etc.) to ensure my calories are sufficient to allow weight loss. Just cutting back doesn’t usually work for me.

I've been on it for 6 months, very little appetite and lost 6 pounds. Makes me crazy when I see people losing 2 pounds a week! Historically I didn't have much of an appetite, but would "snack" at night. This stops me from snacking, I do everything I'm supposed to BUT not losing weight. 2.4 dose. Cash paying. The dr. keeps telling me to stick with it. Seems like a waste to me.

@pamglutemedius Yikes. That’s a lot of time and money for six pounds. I’d be tempted to give up. Good luck.

It took 10 weeks and moving up on the dosing before I started to loose weight. Be patient, listen to your body. If the food noise stopped along with the feeling that you are hungry even after eating, then the dose may be the right one for you. This is how I knew.
