Hello,

Hey guys.
So I’ve been using sema for about 7 months now, 3 times per week at 0.5mg per time, I have since started trt and my hunger has increased sooo much.
Just wondering what dose works for you and how high you have gone up and what you find works best for injections per week?
Any help would be appreciated! | COMMUNITY | — | 2026-07-21 |

I lost 20 lbs on Wegovy and Zepbound but after insurance stopped covering it, I have gained almost 10 lbs back. So I’m back at 160 and I really don’t want to go back to 170.

My Dr was very much against even entertaining Semaglutide since I take Soliqua and it contains a mix of insulin and a GLP1. Seems most primary care Dr's look at GLP1s as just another part of the "Fat Dr" industry and frown on it for weight loss.
