Silly q

But how do you get the extra out with insulin syringes

poppym12 · 27/08/2024 19:51

Anyone know how quickly Cloud approve and despatch? Voy have already closed my account even though I'm still taking medication provided by them for the next 2 weeks.

Quickly in my experience, I ordered last Thursday at 1pm, approved at 3pm and arrived Friday with the postman.

That's pretty speedy. I assumed that if you paid for a month's subscription that included a full month's support, even if you're stopping at the end of the month 🤨

I thought I'd have access until the end of the pen too. Bit crap as I'd logged a lot of info on the app.

poppym12 · 27/08/2024 20:06

That's reassuring @cappycap. My status just says processing so I presume it hasn't been approved by the pharmacist yet.

I really hope I haven't dropped another clanger by ordering from Cloud. I've just checked their reviews Confused

NippyCrab · 27/08/2024 20:12

Judging by the threads Voy must be losing several customers at the moment.

happygertie · 27/08/2024 20:22

I used cloud and was really impressed. I had several messages through app from the pharmacist explaining how my medical history may effect MJ and vice versa and as soon as I acknowledged the messages they approved me. I chose DPD delivery with them and it arrived as scheduled

lookathatbookcase · 27/08/2024 20:36

Oh man - had some crispy pork and salad this evening (only 1/2 of the portion that came!) and I am feeling distinctly unwell. Lesson learned :(

SilverSprings510 · 27/08/2024 20:42

Weigh in and injection day tomorrow! 🤞🏼 I’ve got a bad belly 💩 this evening, not sure why as eaten well all week so hopefully just a weird side effect.

I did jab 3 on Sunday. 11lb down since I started. I haven't really felt any appetite suppression since after the first week but I'm calorie counting and eating much better.

I'm thinking about changing from Voy for my next pen but I like that Voy haven't insisted on telling my GP (I'm in the process of moving and trying to find a new one to register with which is proving quite challenging).

Do all other suppliers notify your GP directly? I'd like to be able to choose to do so when I'm registered with a new one.

Also, the weekly WhatsApp messages from my coach are pretty useless and I understand that they have a lot of patients but there's no flow at all. When I message back, I can be waiting 5+ Hours for a response by which time, the moment has passed and the check in has dwindled.

Zava provide you with a letter that you can download and give to your GP (or not!), or you can ask them to contact the GP on your behalf. It all seems optional though.

TheShellBeach · 27/08/2024 22:38

Medino don't insist on telling your doctor, either.

WitchDancer · 28/08/2024 08:14

Morning all. Weighed in and put 1lb on this week. It doesn't surprise me as I've really had the hunger and there's been a lot of cake because of birthdays. I'm so ready for the next dose up!

CremeDeSudo · 28/08/2024 08:17

Official week 3 weigh in today and I can see the 84kgs on the scales and am 4.3kg down! 😁😁😁

Pinkjenny · 28/08/2024 08:18

Well done on the weigh ins!

lmmj15 · 28/08/2024 08:20

Morning all…newbie here. Just had my first dose…excited for the new journey.

MabelSpan · 28/08/2024 09:53

Morning everyone,

Congratulations to all who have lost again this week!

I have stayed the same on my wk 2 mj weigh day, bit disappointed, knowing my body, it will probably show a loss tomorrow and I wont be able to count it for a whole week!

Going to do mj jab 3 at lunchtime.

SW 20st 3lbs
CW 19st 9.6lbs
TL 7lb 4oz

Still no real side effects, just the dry mouth which improves over the week and burps and hiccups sometimes after eating.

Still having great appetite suppression and no food noise which is fantastic and worth the price of the mj alone. As someone who would fixate and obsess over what to eat, what to treat myself with, what to punish myself with etc etc etc this is life changing!

Onwards we go!

Morning.
I am doing Voy, 4th injection at 2.5 mg due on Friday. Down 6.6 lbs in the 3 and a bit weeks. Appetite suppression is really good at the moment and a very novel feeling for me!
How have people found the change to 5 mg? Do side effects increase?

SilverSprings510 · 28/08/2024 10:47

First weigh in, second jab today. I have lost 7lbs in my first week which I am delighted with. Looking forward to this next week! 😌

Pinkjenny · 28/08/2024 10:55

That's amazing, well done!!

I'm only day 5 and I still haven't been to the bloody toilet, but I am just noticing I'm less swollen, somehow. I wear a welded bracelet which I've just had to take off because it fell off my wrist!

My side-effects didn't increase and I'm on 10mg now.
