Still waiting…. Any teachers here?

I ordered my first dose from MedExpress on Thursday. I’ve had to send 3 photos in so far but also had an email saying sorry for the delay. My last photo was in a swimsuit ( I really wasn’t wearing baggy clothes in the first two!) because I am keen to get the first dose started before I go back to school next week.
Any teachers here who can reassure me they don’t need to run out of a classroom urgently for the toilet?
i’ve already paid ( using a code from the other thread) so can’t easily cancel and go elsewhere. Any advice appreciated!

Which injection? Honestly, everyone has such different experiences. I'm on Wegovy and had so few symptoms I'm fine teaching all day.

Sorry, should have said. Mounjaro.

Yes, a fellow teacher of 'little ones' here. I have been on MJ since the end of June. I have had no side-effects apart from one evening of an upset stomach. I had a sugary-fizzy drink at a pub and within 2 hours I was on the loo. I took an Imodium in the morning after being up twice in the night. I went in but asked to go home to do my PPA.

I am now 8 weeks along and have not had any d and v at all. Even a holiday (group tour on a bus around Sri Lanka) was absolutely fine. I have not told anyone about MJ, and I am 1.5 stone lighter since breaking up 7 weeks ago. Just be careful about what you eat (fat and sugar-wise) and you should be fine.
