Hit 40 and my scale’s stuck! Anyone tried those Mounjaro or Wegovy shots?

[summermum40]

Recently, I've been hearing a lot about weight loss injections like Mounjaro and Wegovy. I'm not diabetic, but obviously, after turning 40, I've gained some weight and am seriously thinking about shedding some pounds. I've tried eating healthier, but it hasn't really made a difference. I'm curious about your experience with these injections. There's a lot of information online, but I'd love to hear from someone with firsthand experience. How do you go about getting these injections? Do I need to consult with a doctor online or in person, or is it all done through an online questionnaire and they just deliver it? Can I get it on prescription from my GP? My BMI is 33.

No, no one here has tried any of those injections, there are no support threads in https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/weight_loss_chat or https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/weight-loss-injections

I'd look elsewhere

You do an online consultation usually involving a questionnaire and photos, with a prescriber. Make sure the one you choose is a legit registered pharmacy.

There is a weight loss injections forum where there are lots of threads you can start reading others progress, side effects, losses etc. The main mounjaro thread has a link to prescribers and prices.

@WeAllHaveWings Thanks a lot
