Managing injections on holiday for 11 nights

[FlorenceB19]

How do we access the 3.75mg?

5ft1
SW 12st 7lb (23/10/24)
CW 12st 3lb (08/11/24)
GW 9st 7lb. ????? TBC

W1 Lost 4lbs 🤗 W2 0 weight loss 😔

I've completed 2 weeks on 2.5mg.
W1d2 suppression kicked in, W1d3 intense suppression everything tasted too sweet to eat. Had Alpen for breakfast & felt like a tub of sugar had been poured over it! 🥴
W1d5 suppression eased up but no intense food noise. 👌🏻

W2 I experienced (comfortable) general suppression, struggled to drink enough water 🤦🏽‍♀️ each day I ate bran flakes & banana for b/fast, ham sandwich/coleslaw on WM bread, pk of crisps for lunch, yogurt & blueberries for dinner. 5-6 black coffees & 750mls of water. (A protein shake every other day) Naturally I'm disappointed with no loss this week! 😔 But hey ho!! 🤷🏽‍♀️

Due 3rd jab tonight but then I need to consider ordering my next batch & unsure if I stay on 2.5 or increase to 5mg as the following day I'm due on holiday for 11 nights in Egypt?

W5... Do I increase dose to 5mg the night before holiday? & risk possible side effects on holiday??? Of stick to 2.5mg risking return of food noise & over eating puddings!!! 🫣

How do I manage jabs on holiday?
As pen needs to be kept in fridge & it's a 6 hour flight plus travelling time of 4+ hours?! Or do I leave jab at home & wait until back from holiday (12 days in between jabs?)

I’m also going away for 10 days, I plan on taking my injection on the Thursday we fly Saturday not taking on holiday and injecting again as soon as I return home. I’m staying on my current dose of 5 as I have a lot of suppression on this without any unpleasant side effects.

A pen you've already started using doesn't need to be kept refrigerated, just needs to be kept under 30 degrees C, so if you want to take it with you that may make it easier. You could get a 5mg pen as your next pen and decide to do a half dose by doing 30 clicks, rather than the full 5mg. It gives you the option of either.

You could also delay your next injection till after the holiday, so inject 2.5mg the day before you go, and then inject on the day you get back, and if you have a 5mg pen you can decide if that injection is 2.5mg or 5mg or somewhere inbetween.
