Fingers crossed.
My tracking is still showing as Monday pm received by Royal Mail in London.
No further movement 😟
I hope it's not lost, I'm getting impatient now.

Trytowin20 · 29/05/2024 11:36

I'm furious mines apparently been refused and now on the way back to sender 😡 the bloody delivery window isn't even over yet!

I work from home noone has attempted, why tf would I refuse it. Logged it with med express and hoping they can help

Moier · 29/05/2024 11:37

I'm seeing my GP soon.
Getting it prescribed for my type two diabetes and also to aid weight loss.
My BMI is very high .
Kill two birds with one stone.

Moier · 29/05/2024 11:40

What side effects are people getting?
My friend on it .. and it's really effected her mental health .
Anxiety and depression.. nothing physical.

BellaCriesAndThatsAlright · 29/05/2024 12:02

Mine has arrived! Must not be tempted to start until Sunday.

Onthegrid · 29/05/2024 12:14

I have my 1st supply from Voy and will be starting on Friday. I had to wait until I had 4 free days to start as I want to be local in case of side effects when I start.
I need to lose at least 50kgs to start to be in a healthy range so I am really hoping it works. I am a sugar-addicted stress & boredom eater who is always hungry and working from home is not a good solution.

Oh no!! I'd be furious too. That's ridiculous.
I hope they can send another one to you quickly.

My parcel has finally moved and is now in Plymouth. So it will make its way to Cornwall and be delivered tomorrow now I expect.

Ihavenoclu · 29/05/2024 13:35

Can I join you all please? I have about 5st to loose so it feels almost impossible.

Snozzlemaid · 29/05/2024 14:10

Hi. It does feel impossible doesn't it. But I do have a real sense of hope with this like nothing I've tried before.
I could do with losing 100 lb so it's going to take quite some time.

Here's my code for £85 off Voy.

I'm one month down and looking forward to the next month! I'm a bit nervous about the step up to 5mg, as I felt a bit rough initially on 2.5.

OliviaFlaversham · 29/05/2024 14:15

Did you consult a GP before ordering? Did you have to? I have so much weight to lose and have dieted and got fatter my whole life. I can’t afford (weight wise) to fail another diet as I end up heavier each time.

Snozzlemaid · 29/05/2024 17:09

You order and purchase it online and it's reviewed before it gets approved.
There are multiple places you can buy from. From what I've read it's almost impossible to get it prescribed by a GP.
I had to give my height and weight and attach a full length photo along with a copy of photo ID.
I had to give my GP's name and address and they say they will contact them for the prescription to be added to my record.

Snozzlemaid · 29/05/2024 17:10

My parcel has finally arrived this afternoon. I've been impatient waiting for it, now it's here I'm a bit scared to be honest.

Have you gone ahead yet? 🤞🏻

Snozzlemaid · 29/05/2024 22:39

I've just done it. It was easy to inject, didn't feel a thing.
But I'm worried now how I'm going to feel over next couple of days.
I hope this is worth the money and stress!

Trytowin20 · 29/05/2024 23:08

Med express are sending a replacement for me due some point tomorrow thankfully husband is WFH so hopefully I actually get it. Been really quick to respond and sent a free replacement so happy there. Not so happy they only use royal mail but can see how their hands are tied.

After this I might consider somewhere like Asda pharmacy especially if I can collect at my supermarket to avoid this hoo-ha. I'm assuming now my one royal mail returned to sender as I refused it (apparently 😒) will be destroyed as it left the pharmacy though I'm hoping the sharps bin etc will be repacked the wastage is awful let alone if that lot is included too.

Snozzlemaid · 29/05/2024 23:40

Fingers crossed for you.

Does anyone take other medications? I'm wondering if it is ok to inject at the same time as taking my other things.

OrangeWire · 30/05/2024 11:12

I’m hoping to start in June - my DH has asked me to run it by my GP before I start, my surgery do telephone appointments on Mondays so I’ll phone them then. I’m not sure it’s necessary but he really wants me to. I’m also going to have to stop breastfeeding my toddler, they are 2yo and frequently tell me that it’s “all used up” so it will just be a formality anyway 😂 originally I thought about waiting until after my holiday (August) then I thought, oh but I have a city break in September, so I think I just need to do it! What pharmacy is everyone using? I’ve been looking at Asda because the different dosages seem closer in price but I don’t want to miss out on any good deals!

Hi all :)

My order with Voy was approved today - nervous but so excited. How long did it take from approval to dispatch for you all? I'm keen to start on the 1st but not sure if that's unrealistic
