GLP-1 Weight Loss: What to Expect

As with any medications the effect of GLP-1 medication varies from patient to patient. Your response to GLP-1 may not match the timing below. This chart is meant to give a general idea of what to expect.

Month Semaglutide Timeline
ONE As your body adjusts to the medication, you may experience mild side effects such as nausea or decreased appetite. Early appetite suppression and modest weight loss are common during this phase.
TWO Weight loss often becomes more noticeable. Side effects typically lessen, appetite control improves, and managing portion sizes becomes easier.
THREE Steady progress may continue, with improved energy levels and metabolic benefits such as better blood sugar regulation for some patients.
FOUR Weight loss may slow or temporarily plateau. By this stage, healthier eating patterns and increased physical activity are often more established.
FIVE Continued weight loss may occur along with broader health improvements, including better blood pressure, improved cholesterol levels, and fewer food cravings.
SIX With ongoing medical supervision, many patients focus on maintaining results through long-term lifestyle changes and sustained weight management.

Potential Side Effects of Semaglutide for Weight Loss

Semaglutide can be effective for weight loss, but some people may experience side effects as their body adjusts. The intensity and type of side effects can vary, and not everyone will experience them. Common side effects may include:

  • Nausea: Often occurs during the first few weeks; smaller meals and avoiding high-fat foods can help.
  • Vomiting or diarrhea: Temporary gastrointestinal symptoms that usually improve as the body adapts.
  • Abdominal pain: Mild stomach discomfort or bloating may appear early in treatment.
  • Heartburn: Some individuals experience acid reflux
  • Fatigue: Feeling tired is common at the start but generally subsides over time.
  • Decreased appetite: Helps support weight loss but may lead to fatigue if nutrient intake is insufficient.
  • Dizziness: Lightheadedness can occur, particularly when reducing food intake or adjusting to the medication.

Most side effects are mild and temporary. To help minimize discomfort, it can be beneficial to eat smaller, low-fat meals, stay hydrated, and follow your healthcare provider’s guidance.
