I lost 2 stone in three months by doing ‘Wegovy Wednesday’ – the midweek ‘Ozempic’ trend
The IndependentEvery Wednesday morning, after a reminder alarm beeps on my phone, I go to the fridge and take out my prescription. I’ve been on Wegovy – a weight loss medication I inject once a week – for three months. Well, to quote Julia Roberts’s “poor me” monologue from Notting Hill, “I’ve been on a diet every day since I was 19, which basically means I’ve been hungry for a decade.” Except I’ve been on a diet since I was 10 – which makes it 36 years. Everyone in Paris is.” Wegovy and Ozempic – brand names for semaglutide, a weight management medication – work by mimicking a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1, which is involved in regulating appetite and food intake. There have also been warnings of Ozempic abuse, with some who don’t really need it using the drug to drop some extra pounds to get “beach body ready”.
