Wegovy 0.25mg: Why You Might Not Feel Anything (Yet)

If you’ve just started Wegovy and are on the 0.25 mg dose, you might be wondering why nothing seems to be happening. No weight loss. No reduced appetite. No real change.

That’s normal.

The 0.25 mg dose isn’t designed to cause weight loss just yet, it’s there to help your body ease into treatment. Here’s why that matters, what to expect next, and when things are likely to start working.

The Purpose of the 0.25 mg Dose

The 0.25 mg dose is considered a "starter" dose. It’s not meant to suppress your appetite or cause noticeable weight loss.

Instead, its job is to help your body get used to semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy) and reduce the chance of side effects like nausea, vomiting, or stomach upset.

You’re still getting the benefits of starting the treatment, but in a gentler way that prepares you for the more active doses coming next.

What’s Happening in Your Body

Wegovy is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by:

• Slowing down how quickly food leaves your stomach
• Reducing appetite and cravings
• Helping regulate blood sugar and insulin

At 0.25 mg, these effects are just starting. Your system is adjusting, and your gut and brain are beginning to respond, even if you can’t feel it yet.

Think of it like laying a foundation. It may not feel exciting now, but it’s critical for long-term success.

What You Can Do Now

Even if you’re not feeling big changes yet, this is a great time to:

• Track your meals, movement, and appetite
• Drink plenty of water and eat slowly
• Build small, sustainable routines that Wegovy can enhance

Late afternoon or evening cravings are common and often the first thing to improve once your dose increases.

The Bottom Line

Don’t worry if nothing dramatic is happening yet. You’re not doing anything wrong, and the medication is working as intended.

The 0.25 mg dose is about preparing your body, not rapid results. What you’re doing now sets the stage for safe, effective progress in the weeks ahead.
