I’m starting Wegovy in a few weeks after vacation and would love some perspective from people who train hard while on it.

I’ve spent over a decade doing CrossFit, running, and now HYROX, so a lot of my training is pretty high intensity. I’ve also been trying to lose the last 10–15lbs for years (which is why I’m finally giving Wegovy a try)

My biggest concern is losing muscle, strength, or stamina. For those of you who still do CrossFit, HYROX, running, lifting, HIIT, etc. while on Wegovy:

1. How did you adjust your training and eating? If so, how?
2. Were you still able to do high-intensity workouts?
3. Were you able to eat enough carbs around training to perform well, even with the appetite suppression? What about slow digestion?

I’m mainly wondering if I can realistically keep training hard and maintain my engine while losing weight on Wegovy.

Would especially love to hear from people who were already very active/fit before starting.

I’ll be in HCMC at the end of June for a wedding in Da Lat and hoping to buy an ao dai while I’m there.
It doesn’t need to be fully custom. I’m open to premade options that can be altered/tailored.

I land on 6/30 and would need it by 7/2.
Does anyone have recommendations for shops in HCMC that can do a quick turnaround?
