Real expectations

Week by week,
what to actually expect.

The honest experience of starting a GLP-1 weight loss treatment, including the rough bits.

Getting started
Week 01 · Starting

Getting started

First injection on day 1. You may feel nausea, fatigue, or odd appetite changes as your body adjusts to GLP-1 activity. This is the medication working, not a side effect to push through.

Tip: if nausea hits, try injecting in the evening before bed instead.

Body adjusts
Week 02 · Adjusting

Body adjusts

Side effects settle for most patients. Appetite hasn't shifted dramatically yet — give it time. Hydration and small frequent meals make the transition easier.

Tip: keep a short side effect log. Your prescriber will check in mid-month and may adjust if needed.

Appetite shifts
Week 03 · Shifting

Appetite shifts

The "food noise" starts to quiet for most. Portion sizes feel naturally smaller. Energy returns to baseline. This is when patients usually notice clothes fitting differently.

Tip: keep eating enough — your body still needs protein. Aim for 1g per kg of body weight.

First weigh-in
Week 04 · Weigh-in

First weigh-in

Time to weigh in. Average month-one loss is 2-3 kg. Your prescriber reviews the data and decides whether you're ready to titrate up to the next dose strength.

Tip: use the same scale. Morning, post-bathroom, pre-breakfast for the most accurate comparison.

This is a generalised timeline. Your prescriber adjusts pace to you.
