Yes, gaining weight after stopping GLP-1s (like Ozempic, Wegovy) is common, often significant, because the drugs' appetite-suppressing effects cease, leading to increased hunger and return of the body's mechanisms for weight regain, highlighting that obesity is a chronic condition needing long-term management, though diet, exercise, stress management, and professional support can help mitigate rebound.


Why Weight Regain Happens
Appetite & Hormones Return: GLP-1s slow digestion and signal fullness; when stopped, these effects reverse, increasing hunger and calorie intake.
Obesity is Chronic: These medications manage obesity, not cure it; stopping treatment allows the underlying condition's drivers (hormones, brain function) to resurface.
Metabolic Changes: The body's metabolism can lag after stopping, creating a "perfect storm" for rapid regain, sometimes up to 50-80% of lost weight.

Just eat less. That's all ozempic does. Suppress your appetite.

If you got discipline, no need drugs.
