8. I've been told by my doctor that once I reach my goal weight, I'll probably need to stay on Wegovy for the rest

of my life on a maintenance dosage level. I'm still on the second to lowest dosage level, but was just approved for the next dosage level. I've been on it for 3 months. I plataued a few weeks ago and was stagnant for 3 weeks, didn't lose, didn't gain, and then the next week I lost over 2 pounds which really surprised me. Anyway, I'm not having a tough time with the side effects and am happy with my progress to date. This time of year is hard with all the xmas parties and increased alcohol consumption.
