FAQ
When will I start losing weight?
Most people see noticeable weight loss by week 4-6. The first few weeks at 0.25mg are for tolerability, not maximum weight loss.
What if I don't feel anything on 0.25mg?
That's normal. 0.25mg is a sub-therapeutic dose meant to let your body adjust. Effects become more noticeable at 0.5mg and higher.
How long do side effects last?
Nausea typically peaks in the first 1-2 weeks at each new dose, then subsides. Most people tolerate semaglutide well after 4-8 weeks.
