What else the video covers
She reads out her tape measurements from start to now. According to the video, her neck went from 15.5 in to 14 in, her waist from 45 in to 39 in at the belly button (37 in at the narrowest point), her chest from 49 in to 42 in, and her hips from 56.5 in to 49.5 in. Her left thigh went from 36.5 in to 29.5 in, her right thigh from 35.5 in to 29 in, her left calf from 20.5 in to 19 in, and her right calf from 21.5 in to 19 in. She then shows front, side and back before and after photos and says the biggest early change she noticed was less facial inflammation.
On dosing, she says she took 0.25 mg for about a month, 0.5 mg for about a month, then 1 mg from around December. After a plateau at the 50 lb mark, her doctor moved her to 1.7 mg on March 17, and she says she lost a further 22 lb over four months on that dose. She reports more nausea for the first week or two after the increase. Her tips are to listen to your body, expect cravings to continue, and prioritize protein. She names a protein shake with espresso (30 grams of protein), chickpeas, Kodiak protein pancakes and waffles, chicken breast and tofu. She also describes therapy as part of her approach and says she used to fear the weekly needle but no longer feels it.

- Wegovy side effects, and why the top of the ladder is different
Wegovy's side effects are semaglutide's side effects: nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and constipation, worst in the first weeks and after each dose increase. What makes Wegovy different from Ozempic is not the molecule but the destination. Wegovy is dosed for weight management, climbing to 2.4 mg with a 7.2 mg high-dose strength above it, and dose is the main driver of how pronounced the gastrointestinal effects get. It also carries a boxed warning for thyroid C-cell tumour risk. One useful fact while you decide whether to push through: Novo's self-pay price is flat across every pen dose, so a slower climb costs a brand patient nothing.
- Wegovy 7.2 mg (Wegovy HD): what the higher dose adds, and what it costs
Wegovy HD is semaglutide at 7.2 mg, three times the standard 2.4 mg dose, in its own pen. In the STEP UP trial it took 18.7% off body weight at 72 weeks against 15.6% for 2.4 mg and 3.9% for placebo, in 1,407 adults with obesity. That puts it within 1.5 points of tirzepatide's head-to-head result and makes it the strongest semaglutide there is. Novo sells it direct for $399 a month, $50 above the standard pen, and it sits above the normal ladder rather than replacing it.
- 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.
