I have had one week at the 1 mg dose and while I have not noticed any increase in the side effects, I did lose nearly 3 pounds this week which makes it a total of almost 10 pounds so far. My energy is good and my strength training is no different even though I am consuming a lot less food. Maybe there is more muscle under the fat than I realize.
While I saw a new article about microdosing with the GLP-1 agonists for improved cognition, I have had things happen while I was on Wegovy that have me a bit concerned. The first was the “Did you turn the switch on” incident that I previously blogged about. The second is about this appliance which I use a couple of times a week.
Last week while in the middle of doing several things I decided to make more herbal tea. I kept trying to open the lid by pushing the “button” on the lid near the pouring spout. The button did not push so I thought it was stuck. I got frustrated and set it aside to come back to later. Later, it did not work and I got out a knife to see if I could get the button to work. It did not help. I thought about prying the lid open but stopped short and set it aside to ask Craig about it. When I explained the problem, he simply pushed the button on the handle and the lid opened. This was clearly a short circuit in my brain of some sort. Even though I had used that handle button multiple times before, I did not even see it in my focus on the “fake button” in the lid which is not even an actual button. This may have nothing to do with the Wegovy. I have not noticed any other cognitive challenges but I will keep track.

As home entertainment goes, some of the funniest comic entertainment we share is making fun of ourselves and each other over a “senior moment”. Yep, when working alone in my shop I’ve occasionally come to the realization that if I only had two more guys and a cameraman, I could make a great Three Stooges movie.
