Asda pharmacy - photos

I’ve been taking Mounjaro since April and although the loss has been slow, I have lost 10kg in 4 months.

I now want to stop taking Mounjaro after the next pen, so taking into account my remaining doses in the current pen, in around 6 weeks time.

My BMI is currently 25.6 and I want to get to 23.5 before stopping.

When I ordered the last pen (all of my pens have come from Asda Pharmacy, and always approved following first set of photos) they asked me to send dated photos of the scales and also a side picture of me with date, in fitted clothes.

Ive done that, in leggings and a vest which are both tight and I’ve now received a message back saying they can not verify my current BMI is accurate from those photos.

I think I still look pretty chubby, but they want two more dated photos of both front and side views.

Has anyone else had this? It’s stressing me a little that I’ve now spent over £1k on these injections and they may now refuse to prescribe as they don’t believe I am this weight. I absolutely am not doctoring the image or the weight on the scales.

seems a bit crappy customer service to say they believed me up till now, but now don’t, so tough!

You also can have no say over delivery date, so if they do approve it, they’ll despatch the next day - if I’m at home or not. Not the greatest experience considering they are one of the highest priced of all the online pharmacies!

At a BMI of 25 you're probably not "pretty chubby", but I get your frustration. I've been with Asda since the beginning of April am still a fat fuck and haven't been asked for any more photos yet. I would send more photos or even a video if that's possible.

Just as an aside, Asda have started offering collection from the in-store pharmacy, which is GREAT. Maybe that will be an option for you.
