I'm not losing weight on Ozempic?
Side Effects Are Common.
If you've been taking Ozempic but not seeing the weight loss results you were expecting, it's possible that side effects are playing a role. Common side effects of Ozempic can include nausea, headaches, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain or discomfort which can affect your appetite and lead to decreased food intake – meaning fewer calories consumed. Less common but more serious side effects of Ozempic use include pancreatitis, vision changes, hypoglycemia, kidney problems and allergic reactions. It is important to consult your doctor if you experience any of these symptoms or if you have any concerns about taking Ozempic for weight loss. Additionally, it is important to monitor your blood sugar levels closely when taking this medication as hypoglycemia can be a risk.
Ozempic reduces appetite not fat stores.
Since Ozempic slows down gastric emptying, there may also be a feeling of early satiety or fullness. To help improve these and other gastrointestinal symptoms associated with Ozempic use, Dr. Alexander recommends individuals eat more slowly. It's important to keep in mind that Ozempic will not cause you to lose weight on its own – it is an aid to help you reach your weight loss goals. In addition to taking the medication regularly and as directed, creating a healthy diet and exercise plan can help boost your weight loss results.
Once you stop Ozempic weight is regained quickly.
Studies also show that stopping Ozempic completely will likely lead to regaining most of the weight lost within several months. At the end of the day, it's important to remember that everyone is different and that Ozempic may not be suitable for everyone.
