Mounjaro October starters - Thread 8!

Carry on losers!

Morning all

Week 44
SW 17'10
CW 17'10

Another 3 pounds on this week, however we was on a mini cruise this weekend and while eating was actually, it was the cocktails that did it!

I am sure this will be gone by next week. Suppression is still a little meh, but I am still finding that I am struggling to finish decent size meals and I am definitely not snacking as much, so maybe its better than I think it is.

I am definitely being more mindful about eating, and I am hoping this will carry on when I stop jabbing.

Had an email from MM yesterday, where I usually buy from, and the 15mg is £271, up from £145. I am struggling to justify the extra money, as things are tight anyway, even tho the blood pressure has significantly improved and obviously the weight loss as well. I will just have to persevere with willpower when I come to finish my last 2 pens.

Oushk just released their new prices

More Sept prices added to the monj site

What are Medicine Marketplace like as a supplier? Do they do maintenance?
I've been with MedExpress since the start, but I can imagine a time in the not too distant future when I might be looking to go onto maintenance and MedExpress don't do it. They're also nearly £40 a pen dearer than Medicine Marketplace, which is difficult to justify paying. I'd been starting to think I should change supplier before all the current turmoil kicked off, and now looking at the variation on @HappyNewt 's price list I think the time has probably come.
I'd also welcome suggestions of good suppliers who do maintenance, have prices at the lower end of extortionate and would supply me even though my bmi is now less than 30.
I've got 6 doses in stock (1 full pen and 2 doses in the pen I'm using), so it would be October before I need to reorder, so hopefully the chaos will have settled a little by then.

@igivein I have been really happy with MM as a supplier in general, before all of this kicked off. I cannot comment on the maintenance I am afraid, and I had already decided to stop my jabs before the price rises, but generally speaking I would be happy to recommend them.

@TheChosenTwo I’ve sent you a private message. Only letting you know because the notification is soooo tiny that it’s easy to miss.

Just a thought for any others out there who were nearly where they optimistically hoped to be, but are now on/heading toward the life 'after MJ' path, like me...

I have decided to use a couple of months (old price 😁) value toward making myself feel good or helping along the maintenance path..

Yesterday I had a Brazilian lymph drainage massage..I hadn't realised it was brazilian, I just booked with someone that had been recommended locally as a good masseuse. It was the best massage I have ever had...super relaxing and (apparently) they are really good for helping with water retention, detox and body sculpting...I do feel 'lighter' and generally great today...drinking lots yesterday and today to help the lymph nodes do their job...

I'm not intending to advertise that particular massage, but rather to say that in the run up to Christmas I intend to treat myself a little each month...possibly more of these massages as it really was very good indeed, or perhaps a spa treatment - there used to be some good body wraps out there, so perhaps I will look into that.

I'm still intending to start a gym membership too...just need to find the one that works best for me...

@happynewt that is a brilliant idea, I, like many others i'm sure, have been feeling really worried about what the future is going to bring without mj (I ordered as normal last month and can't afford the new prices). Much better to make it positive.

Hiya guys just ordered 15 mg from Medicine market place! They have stock of 12.5mg too xx

I've just checked and all the doses are sold out! Just 30 mins after you posted. When did you order it?

About 5 mins before I posted.

It's showing 41 in stock still? Try refreshing?

@Histoscientist so you see my post above x

Was it definitely medicine marketplace?

Out of stock for all! I've added screenshots. Time stamp 21:02. I'm not registered with them so maybe that's why, maybe it's for previous users with an account?

@Histoscientist yes. How odd!! Still showing in stock for me! I've attached a screenshot.

The website was being sketchy earlier for me and it have 2 pending payments on my card. But assume it'll sort it's self out tomorrow when approved.

Maybe it's existing customers?

Oh no, gutted! I've registered but it's still the same 😭

It's really weird. If I go through the website from the home page it said out of stock.

https://treatments.medicinemarketplace.com/shop/mounjaro-weight-loss-pen-2plink/

When I go in through the reorder button on my account it is showing in stock. Worth trying the link above?

@Histoscientist

Sorry if it doesn't work!

Thanks for trying and this worked but when I went to shopping basket after adding, wouldn't let me continue as said out of stock so people must be buying real time, I guess the number of customers they have, I'm not surprised they keep selling out!

I tried them all incl 5mg, what a shame. I'm glad it worked for you though and thanks for helping 💕

Awww I am sorry!

It might be worth keep trying on the 15mg as it is still showing in stock for me.

When they struggled to fulfil orders towards the beginning of the year it kept emailing me saying it was in stock and then when I went onto the site it was OOS. When I questioned them about why it kept emailing me saying in stock and then out of stock when I went on and then signing up for the notification and being emailed straight away saying in stock. They said that the website takes it off being able to order it when someone adds it to their basket, but if someone doesn't complete the order it then becomes available again.

Fingers crossed!

My BMI is 24 (SW 16, CW 11.8, GW 10.7). Currently with Oushk because of maintenance option but I’m wondering 2 things if anyone can help please;

• How do some people manage to be in the books if several suppliers and able to order pens from each?
• At a BMI of 24, is it too late or impossible to now switch it ‘add’ another supplier?

Many thanks!

You just order a pen through the different suppliers, complete the steps. The suppliers dont talk to each other so they dont know how many you order from on one day.

With a BMI of 24 you will just have to try and register with them and see if they will take you.

How is everyone getting on?

Im still plodding along. Lost 6 stone now, in the 10 stone bracket but its slowed right down. I might aim for another stone off as I'm 5'7.

Hi @Fizzleawayyy1 - and everyone else! I’m fine thanks. I think you’ve done so amazingly well. I’m stuck at 11 stone 2 lbs at five foot 7 inches. I would like to get down to 10 and a half stone and then titrate down and maintain on MJ. I’ll just have to cope with the cost!

Still on 7.5mg, but I took the bonus dose which measured 7mls. Presume that was around 8.5mg ( my maths is not my strong point)! Suppression has been higher this week, but some nausea as well. Not sure whether to start another 7.5 mg pen this Sunday or start a 10mg pen so I can keep to around 8.5 mg dose. I think this would be 50 clicks? Hesitating slightly as off on holiday again on the 16th September.
I have three new 10 mg pens and a 7.5 mg pen in stock.
