How does it work?

The title may be a little misleading, but I didn't know what else to say. I just took my first .25 dose last night (feeling good so far 🤞). I was doing everything right to lose weight for months before taking Wegovy (exercising more, eating in a calorie deficit) and did not lose a single pound. My question is, how will the Wegovy possibly help to remedy that, other than suppressing my appetite? Does it do anything else? I tried looking on the website but didn't really find anything. This is all new to me, so anything is appreciated!
