Our summary

In this update from the channel Keep Up With Koi, Koi says she has been taking the Wegovy pill for a little over 15 weeks. She weighed in at 258 lb on May 11, down 2.2 lb from 260.2 lb on May 4. She says she started at about 283 lb, so she is down about 25 lb in roughly four months. She also tries on a set of waist beads from Zambia that she uses in place of a tape measure, and says they seem to sit a little lower than the week before.

What else the video covers

Koi says she still works out 5 days a week with strength training and cardio. She says she eats whole foods, focusing on protein, vegetables and low-sugar, hydrating fruits, and that the same routine keeps working for her.

The main part of the video explains why she moved from the 25 mg dose back to the 9 mg dose. She says she had planned with her doctor to titrate up to 25 mg as the maintenance dose. After about a week on 25 mg, she describes severe tiredness lasting two or three days that rest did not fix, plus appetite suppression strong enough that she had to force herself to eat and drink. She felt the jump from 9 mg was too big for her body. She says she split a pill in half for a couple of days, which she does not advise anyone to do, then asked her doctor to return her to 9 mg. Since then she reports her energy and meals are back to normal, and she plans to stay on 9 mg for now.

Questions this video answers

Why did she go back to the 9 mg Wegovy pill dose from 25 mg?

Koi says the 25 mg dose felt too strong too fast after 9 mg. She describes extreme tiredness and appetite suppression so strong she had to force herself to eat and drink, so her doctor put her back on 9 mg.

How much weight did she lose on the Wegovy pill after about 15 weeks?

Koi says she started at about 283 lb and weighed 258 lb on May 11, roughly 25 lb down over about four months. She reports a loss of 2.2 lb in the most recent week, from 260.2 lb on May 4.

What side effects does she report on the Wegovy pill?

Koi says she had some nausea and constipation when starting 25 mg, plus a need to drink more water, and that she managed these. At 25 mg she also describes heavy fatigue and very strong appetite suppression.

Our guides closest to what this video covers, with prices checked weekly.

  • How long do Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound take to work? The label calendar and the trial timepoints

    GLP-1s act from the first dose, but the labels start low on purpose and step up every 4 weeks, so most people do not reach a full dose for 3 to 5 months. Each dose reaches steady levels in the blood after about 4 to 5 weeks. In the trials, people averaged 10.6% weight loss after 20 weeks of Wegovy's escalation and 20.9% after 36 weeks of Zepbound, with the full trial results at 68 to 72 weeks. For type 2 diabetes, Ozempic's A1C results were measured at week 30.

  • The best GLP-1 for weight loss, ranked by the evidence and then by the bill

    By weight lost, the order is settled: tirzepatide (Zepbound) first at 20.2% in the only head-to-head, then semaglutide 7.2 mg (Wegovy HD) at 18.7%, then semaglutide 2.4 mg (Wegovy) at 13.7% to 15.6%, then the pills. By what you pay, the order nearly inverts: compounded semaglutide from $69 a month, the Wegovy tablet from $149, Wegovy pen $349, Zepbound $299 to $699 by dose. The best one is where those two lists meet for your budget and your plan.

  • Foundayo vs Wegovy pill: two weight-loss tablets, two molecules, the same $149 start

    Foundayo is orforglipron, the Wegovy pill is semaglutide. Both start at $149 a month self-pay. Foundayo has no food or water rules; that is Lilly's main claim.
