Semaglutide weight loss reviews
"This program is a little mix of nature and nurture along with great support. I feel fuller, I eat smaller meals, and I just don't feel as hungry."
Ro Member
"I’m craving healthier foods. I found myself wanting an apple this morning rather than a less healthy option. I’m craving things with the right nutrients in, rather than the snackier options I would’ve in the past."

FAQs
What is semaglutide?
Semaglutide is the active ingredient in brand -name medications Wegovy and Ozempic, which are a type of medication called glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists. Instead of that tongue-twister of a name, we call these medications “GLP-1s” for short.
Semaglutide has been clinically proven to help with weight loss. How? It acts like a natural hormone your body uses to regulate blood sugar and appetite—key steps in resetting your biological set point to help you maintain a new, lower weight.
Do you prescribe semaglutide injections for weight loss?
Some forms of semaglutide, like Wegovy, are specifically FDA-approved for weight loss. Others, like Ozempic, are approved for the treatment of certain symptoms and risks of type 2 diabetes, but may be prescribed off-label for weight loss. Ro-affiliated healthcare providers have the discretion to prescribe a medication off-label if they believe it is an appropriate course of treatment for a particular patient.
By joining our Body Program, you can lose 15% of your body weight in one year—all through our unique combination of semaglutide with 1:1 personal health coaching and 12 months of curriculum and support.

What is semaglutide’s dosing?
Semaglutide dosing starts out low, then gradually increases over the first few months until a steady dose is reached. If prescribed, your Ro-affiliated provider will work with you to find the schedule and dosing that’s right for you.
How do you take semaglutide injections?
Semaglutide comes in a prefilled injection pen. If prescribed, you (or someone in your household) will administer the injection under the skin of your stomach, thigh, or arm once a week.
While a routine injection may sound intimidating, the semaglutide pen uses a tiny needle designed to minimize discomfort. You’ll also receive clear instructions on using the injection pen, and your Ro-affiliated provider can offer additional advice.
How quickly does semaglutide cause weight loss?
In the pivotal STEP 4 clinical trial evaluating Wegovy, people who combined semaglutide with a healthy diet and exercise lost an average of over 4% of their body weight by eight weeks. Those who reached a steady dose of 2.4 mg per week lost an average of 10.6% of their body weight in the first 20 weeks of treatment—and over 17% of their body weight within 68 weeks. Everyone responds to semaglutide injections differently. How quickly you see weight loss can depend on which form of semaglutide you’re prescribed, as well as your unique biological makeup. Your Ro-affiliated provider will work with you to get the best results for you.
