Has anyone used shemed for mounjaro? It seems a good price but you are locked in for 12 months if approved.
Thanks

It's not irrelevant when you're now accusing people of bullying lol

Sorry I don’t get how bullying is ever ok.

That's an interesting sub.
They don't seem very keen on SheMed.

They also have a maintenance one

Never said bullying is okay, I'm stating that OP stated they felt harrassed by you and asked you to stop posting the way you were as you were coming across as rude and abrasive.

You are now saying you are being bullied.

You then said how you come across is irrelevant.

I'm purley stating it's not irrelevant when the way you have come across has made someone feel uncomfortable.

There are ways to get your views and points across without being argumentative, on this occasion you have not achieved this.

This comment is not bullying, it's just stating facts.

By George you’ve got it.

I've got an open mind about it at the moment.

I'll be interested to discover how this pans out for the people on this thread who have signed up.

It may be absolutely fine. I'm happy with Medino, and as I've been on MJ for ages, I'm not eligible for SheMed anyway.

But I'm following this thread with interest.

Do you mean SheMed has a maintenance thread, or Reddit?
I'm not very familiar with Reddit.

Reddit has a maintenance sub

https://www.reddit.com/r/mounjaromaintenanceuk/

As you can probably tell I am a bit obsessed with MJ, there is also a general 'mounjaro' one which is mainly from the US and it is interesting as they have been on it a bit longer.

@Orangesandlemons77 thanks for posting the link to Reddit and the maintenance thread, interesting to see how people are getting on. I find Reddit really hard to navigate!

To be honest, your presentation of the evidence borders on spam.

Why do you brow beat people who are already signed up? It's too late for us. Why not be ballsy and do a standalone shemed and their lies thread? That would be more helpful for people searching the forums who have not yet signed up.

Evidence posted as photos once is spam?
I initially tried to warn the op. She declined to go look at the evidence. Her prerogative.
So she hadn’t signed up.
It isn’t too late for any others since.
Dont shoot the messenger.
I sincerely hope it gets more professional for anyone who uses it.I fully understand the attraction of £99 per month, but the risk is that many people are not able to make the adjustments to their diet that are needed( they really need nhs support) and will not be able to last twelve months.
Mounjaro is a mini miracle I’ve been on it a longish time and just hope no one falls foul of the contract. It’s a lot of money to have to pay

This is my point!

It's not that I don't agree with the other poster, I didn't know about the employees and reviews but even so it wouldn't have changed my decision.

I have been on the fence for weeks but after weighing up the pros and cons I felt like the pros outweighed the cons FOR ME

It's a new company and I feel comfortable taking the chance, and if it means I'm tied into the 12 months and get screwed it is what it is.

And if I ever feel like I have been screwed or think people should not go with shemed I will shout it from the rooftops.

I'm not promoting it to anyone just looking for support from others who have also went with them.

As regards the twelve months, i have a few friends who had a lot to lose, who found it hard to change their diet . They still ate fatty foods and got very bad symptoms and came off it. You do have to change your lifestyle.

It isn't.
However, I can't see a single post on this thread where you've been bullied.

You've had a post deleted, though.

colesr · 03/01/2025 15:58

@BabaGanouch

When attempting to warn users about other aspects of shemed , I have been bullied on here

I think if you were to read my posts on the thread, about being unsure, then your own, you will see absolutely no similarities. So perhaps leave me out of your crusade.

LovingMentor · 06/01/2025 15:36

hi, is anyone here from Northern Ireland and successfully joined shemed? i read somewhere that you need a GP in England or Wales.

Bluefaye1 · 09/01/2025 13:16

I signed up for it this morning and awaiting the blood test kit. Does anyone know how long the wait for the test kit is please? 🙂xx

Kebabo · 09/01/2025 16:37

HELP!!!!
Have blood test arrive today. I know I need to do it Mon to Thurs. A live call is needed. I can't see a number to call or does it come up when you scan it? Also, I work and need to do my test before work. Can anyone tell me the opening times? Can I do my blood before the phonecall? Thanks all.

LightsAndBaubles · 09/01/2025 16:48

I had an email to say I could do the blood test and then call and thats what I did. You need to call before you can post the test though.
If you do test today are you able to get it in the post by last collection today?
You could test before work on Monday.....supposed to be able to call 24/7

kittykarate · 09/01/2025 16:48

Hey @kebabo

  • The live call is done via the shemed app, when you scan the barcode it takes you to the app and there should be a button there.
  • You can do the call before work for sure - I did mine at about 6am. They claim 24 hours a day, but I am not sure if they have a lot of operators on in the graveyard shift.
  • No - do your blood during the call. They will guide you through the process, and that is really helpful.
LightsAndBaubles · 09/01/2025 16:49

You don't dial a number. You scan the code and follow the instructions

Thank you so much!

NotBabyReindeer · 20/01/2025 20:15

So so glad you've asked this. I very nearly signed up & thought I'd better check the reviews! Scoured loads of socials but found nothing! That's Mounjaro spreadsheet is the best thing ever! I'm only on week 1 but it's going well so far!

BestDIL · 21/01/2025 19:51

BabaGanouch · 22/12/2024 15:44

At the moment shemed are using people to spam support boards to push themselves…………

Other userrs have pointed out their t&cs of the 12 month contract is very restrictive.
They are using their own staff eg calinda Robinson to promote themselves with videos while failing to mention they work for them, on YouTube .
The trial they say they are running is not an ethical trial.
The small print of the contract is ALL you have to rely on, don’t believe people who try to tell you otherwise. You have been warned..
I don’t care who you go with but don’t sign up to a contract that you can’t get out of

Edited

I've seen quite a few opinionated posts from you about SheMed and have a theory.

You're kicking yourself as you are paying the much higher costs for MJ and are simply jealous that others are getting it for £99 a month.

Most folk using this type of drug have a lot of weight to lose and signing up for a year at a low price is a no brainer.

The drug is the same wherever you get it so I don't see your problem!

Hello!
Sorry to jump on the thread with questions straight away!
I recieved my blood test kit a week ago and have been trying to connect to someone via the app since Friday (every day at various times) and just have a spinning circle (for up to an hour at a time).
I've messaged on Facebook, email and called twice and had nothing at all back!
Does anybody have any other contact details as I'm really keen to get started and just can't seem to!

Have you tried uninstalling the app and re installing as a last resort?
