Mounjaro October starters - Thread 4

[JustKeepsBreathing]

Number 3 was almost full so hope it’s okay to start a new one @YummyCookie

This is a fast moving group but so useful 😀

They refused mine too. I have asked them to do the private pharmacy instead. Have also asked about the price match double too.

I have a nasty cold today and I am day two so peak suppression day, I've hardly managed to eat anything and can't get warm forced down a half portion of dinner

@UtterlyQuackers I haven't heard back so I expect it will be tomorrow now.
I wouldn't be surprised if they pull the offer - they must be losing a fortune! Oh well, I'm not complaining as I haven't paid full price for any of the three pens I've bought so far.
@lapuf I hope you feel better soon - you need to be tucked up in bed with a hot water bottle!

I do! I had a worried looking DH when I went and camped out next to the oven! Think it's a combination of the cold and the mounjaro

@MissSmith80 the credit will be in your account so when you go to actually buy your next pen the credit will automatically be deducted on the payment page [it's in a yellow box] before they process your payment.

Thank you @recklessgran

@Fizzleaway1 thank you for the positivity. I lost 5ibs in one week a few weeks back, so I'm still losing but it's clearly slowed right down. X

@thekewgirl thank god it isn't just me! It's so jarring isn't it, makes you lose all sort of hope until you see a drop again. Fingers crossed for you! X

My biggest win by far is the fact after 2. 5yrs of not wearing my engagement and eternity rings, they actually now fit. I have been so desperate to wear them again. I didn't have a huge lot to lose when I started this journey (and still on it) 3st loss is my target, but I have been so excited to actually get these rings back on my chubby fingers

@Gilly1C congratulations!
I don’t really have a goal weight, in some ways it’s helpful to have a target but mine is more about feeling healthy and resetting my relationship with food, hopefully giving myself a better chance of a more physically healthy active retirement and being in good condition for grandchildren one day. My mum had a near fatal stroke in her 40’s and now I just turned 40 I realised I needed to fix things so I don’t go the same way.

i suppose I’ll just know when I’ve reached where I want to be but I’m enjoying the journey so far. Hoping to reach a stone off by Saturday which will be 5 weeks. Feeling so much lighter just without having constant food noise and that alone is priceless for me. I’ve realised just how much of my life was dominated by what I was going to eat and when.

I hope it speeds back up for you x

I made thread 5 as this one is nearly full! They get full so fast still!

Thread 5

Brilliant news, really pleased for you

My issue has been the opposite - I haven't been able to get mine off! And I still can't! Hopefully soon (not that I especially want to take them off, but I want to know that I can!)

How is everyone getting on? I started in the middle of October and I’m 5stone down. Feel so bloody good, knocked 11 points off my BMI and I’m running again. Have a before and after pic!! Went shopping yesterday and cried because that dress in seasalt is a size 16 - it’s been years and years since I’ve managed that!!
