Wegovy Weight Loss Injections – Isle of Man

The rate of weight loss with Wegovy (Semaglutide) varies from person to person, but most patients begin noticing results within 4-6 weeks of starting treatment.

• In the first month, patients often experience a reduction in appetite, leading to smaller portion sizes and fewer cravings. Weight loss typically ranges from 5-10 lbs (2-4.5 kg) in this initial phase.
• By three months, weight loss generally falls between 10-15% of total body weight, provided the treatment is combined with healthy dietary choices and moderate physical activity.
• Over 12-18 months, studies show that patients on Wegovy can lose up to 15% of their body weight, making it one of the most effective medical weight loss treatments available.
• In the Isle of Man, Wegovy is available exclusively at Tracey Bell Clinic. Patients can access Wegovy without NHS restrictions or long waiting lists.

Wegovy (Semaglutide) and Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) are both injectable weight loss treatments, but they work slightly differently.

At Tracey Bell Clinic, patients can choose between Wegovy and Mounjaro depending on their specific weight loss goals and medical history. Our team will help determine which is the best option for you.

Yes, you can stop taking Wegovy after reaching your target weight, but it’s important to do so under medical supervision to prevent rebound weight gain.

• GLP-1 receptor agonists (like Wegovy) help regulate hunger hormones, so when you stop taking the medication, your natural appetite regulation may revert to its previous state.
• Patients who stop suddenly without lifestyle changes may regain weight. To maintain results, it’s advised to:
  • Gradually taper off the medication (under medical guidance)
  • Continue healthy eating and physical activity habits
  • Monitor hunger levels and adjust portions accordingly

At Tracey Bell Clinic, we provide long-term support, helping patients transition off Wegovy while maintaining weight loss results.

Wegovy does not require a strict diet, but making healthy food choices can enhance results.

• Protein-rich meals (chicken, fish, eggs, tofu) – Helps preserve muscle while losing fat.
• High-fibre foods (vegetables, whole grains, legumes) – Supports digestion and prevents bloating.
• Healthy fats (avocados, nuts, olive oil) – Helps with satiety and nutrient absorption.
• Water-rich foods (cucumbers, watermelon, celery) – Reduces dehydration and supports metabolism.

• Highly processed foods (crisps, sweets, white bread) – Can spike blood sugar and cause cravings.
• Sugary drinks & alcohol – Can increase nausea and impact weight loss.
• Excessive dairy & fried foods – May cause bloating and discomfort.

Tracey Bell Clinic offers nutritional guidance as part of our weight loss programme to ensure you get the best results with Wegovy.

Wegovy may interact with certain medications, including:

• Diabetes medications – Wegovy lowers blood sugar, so combining it with insulin or other diabetes drugs may increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
• Blood pressure medications – Wegovy can contribute to weight loss-related blood pressure reduction, so dosage adjustments may be necessary.
• Oral medications – Since Wegovy slows digestion, it may alter the absorption of some oral medications.

At Tracey Bell Clinic, a full medical review is conducted before prescribing Wegovy to ensure it is safe and suitable for you.

While moderate alcohol consumption is not prohibited while using Wegovy, it is generally not recommended due to the following risks:

• Increased nausea & vomiting – Alcohol may worsen the common side effects of Wegovy.
• Blood sugar fluctuations – Alcohol can interfere with blood sugar regulation, particularly in patients at risk of diabetes.
• Reduced weight loss effectiveness – Alcohol adds empty calories, slowing down fat-burning processes.

For best results, limit alcohol intake while on Wegovy. Our team at Tracey Bell Clinic can provide lifestyle recommendations tailored to your weight loss goals.

If you miss a dose of Wegovy, follow these guidelines:

• If less than 5 days have passed, take the missed dose as soon as possible.
• If more than 5 days have passed, skip the missed dose and take your next injection at the scheduled time.
• Do NOT take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.

Tracey Bell Clinic provides clear dosage instructions and ongoing patient support to ensure you stay on track with your Wegovy treatment.
