"Yesterday OP claimed to be a sports therapist so she’s very confused"

She doesn't appear to know about advanced search.

😂😂😂 to be fair - the OP is comedy gold. Must be a joy to see in real life.

I agree. she’s definitely not realised that we can see every post she’s ever made.

This is the biggest load of BS I’ve read in a while.

You must not be much of a reader then😀

Do you work for Weightwatchers? There is nothing corrupt about getting medication online.
Are you going to take the meds after all that?

FreshInks · 11/03/2026 17:41

OP also mentioned have Botox every 6 months. So she’s a bit of a hypocrite really. She uses injections to look younger but she’s criticising people for using injections for their health.

How is being a sports therapist and contributing to online sports/ health/ news any different?

If id claimed to be a lollipop lady you might have had a point.

If you can’t tell the difference then you genuinely aren’t either one

It was reviewed last night.
It has been accepted!

Proof? Screenshot?

Botox does not stop me achieving muscle mass or contribute to the decline of it.

A contributor is not a journalist. A sports therapist is not a health care professional and it’s not a protected title so anyone with any level of qualifications or none can set themselves up as one.

Until they land on my doorstep i do not hae a correct 'paper trail' or even evidence. But considering ive just had notification of dispatch.
One will see.

To all the abusive posters, its more than imteresting. Most reactions are not normal.
I really do think there is more going on in this industry than meets the eye.

You need to look in the mirror to see the person whose reactions are “not normal”

I hope you feel better soon.

Justapausereally · 11/03/2026 17:45

You’re a sports journalist and plan to write about it…. Well anyone on this thread who reads it, will know who you are

Justapausereally · 11/03/2026 17:46

Very easy for you to prove that you’ve been accepted on the basis of what you describe but just posting a screenshot

but you won’t will you?

Actually Botox weakens muscles over time due to a process called muscle atrophy where the muscles shrink from disuse

I surprised you don’t know this if you work in the health industry

BillyBites · 11/03/2026 17:47

Why the fuck did you pay £265 for a drug (that you're not intending to use) when you could have paid much less?

BillieWiper · 11/03/2026 17:48

Even the dodgy doctor I went to from an advert in the back of the paper in 2002 and sold me speed (some old type that's banned in the UK) told me I only needed to lose half a stone when I presented to him at 9 stone?!

That is very dangerous and horrific for people who could end up anorexic.

Duckyfondant · 11/03/2026 17:50

If true that is alarming, but about the same amount as Botox or those bum injections

Branleuse · 11/03/2026 17:51

And if a sports journalist in their early 20s with perfect complexion decided to go on a mission to stop older people getting botox, because you sometimes get dodgy providers, you'd probably be wondering why they don't just stay in their lane.

I would be wary of any pharmacy that didn't do checks

I paid for my initial online consultation. It was included.

People are not quibbling about the price. They are doubting your claims because the price is so out there and unlikely. Pharmacies usually don’t charge for the consultation as well as the medication.

Simple solution

post a screenshot showing you have been accepted on the basis of the details you provided in your op

but you won’t will you @Enyastar

Exactly

the op ignoring any request to post a screenshot of being accepted
