I did something foolish..
I’ve been on Wegovy for about a year, I think. I’ve had success losing 40 pounds, which I was thrilled about (menopausal weight gain). But I’ve always struggled with nausea. I had to back down to 1.0mg bc of the nausea, and even then it was still moderate. I was struggling this summer with some emotional issues and so never made my follow up doc appt, and ran out of my med. Then I thought, well this would be nice if I could just maintain my weight loss without the Wegovy. Well, that didn’t happen and I am gaining weight at a ridiculous rate. I did make a doc appt for mid October, so that’s good. But here’s where I really messed up: I had some 1.7mg shots in my fridge, and I gave myself a half dose yesterday. I was just really terrified of the weight gain I am experiencing, despite walking and lifting weights and journaling my food.
I’ve now been throwing up since yesterday evening. I threw up in the evening, and have now thrown up 3-4 times today. I’ve only had some pretzels, a piece of toast and eventually a cup of coffee.
Anyone have any advice? I know what I did was stupid and there is probably nothing to do but wait it out. But I’m hoping maybe someone has some piece of advice that might help.
Thanks in advance!
