Happy 1st birthday to us all - somewhere in this month we gathered our courage and started what would be a memorable journey for us all - made some hopefully forever friends

Gather round my little auggies 😍 and we are all doing amazingly so be proud of yourselves

the amount of weight per person lost varies from 1-2stone - 3-4 - 5-6 - 7+

in a year or for some 11-11.5mths - I was middle of August - we have totally changed our body shape - reduced our bmi and weight and hopefully improved our health

some are at goal - and working out how to maintain

some nearing it

some still have weight they want to lose

Some have stopped for cost / various reasons and blowing baby dust your way to those who are ttc

but ALL of us have lost weight and I love the fact we are all so supportive to each other over weight and our general day to day lives

maybe if brave - post your before and after pics to see how far we have come in a year

@WorriedRelative can you redirect it to post office, this is what i have to do for most of mine as i work full time, shift hours so never really home to get parcels..

That might work this time. Normally I can't get to a post office but I could on Friday. Though I could also collect from the delivery office on Friday 🤔

morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 14:21

@WorriedRelative might be worth it, least you know you can collect friday and not risk it being sent back for failed delivery, you prob wouldnt win that case as they will say its your fault.. I would redirect and collect..

i thought mine today would have to be collected tomorrow as im at work till after post office shuts, but thank my lucky stars it was delivered just as i went on lunch.. had my emails open and notification sound up loud!!! haha

My zava order made on 16th August has arrived today. Feeling happier. Got an email from them about the 2 pens I ordered yesterday staying that it's likely to be processed within 6 days. Not sure I believe that to be honest but let's see.

I've found the whole process and waiting really stressful, as though I am having control taken away from me. Bizarre.

FurForksSake · 27/08/2025 14:28

Gosh my suppression is very high at the moment, I used golden dose and there was a little more than 0.6 probably 0.72ml but that’s made a big difference. That’s fine as I’m in the final push and have a few pounds to go to target and have been rather stuck!

DH took me to the garden centre and we looked at chickens, one of my kids now wants chickens, I pointed out the cat might not be too happy! I did have to sit down after a few minutes but the cafe was nice. I managed about 1/4 of the blondie I ordered and felt like I was pushing it around. I also felt people were staring at me a little, I walk very slowly and badly with a stick and I’m quite thin so I wonder if people think I’m “poorly”, there were definitely some head tilting looks. I hate using mobility aides, DH marches off and I feel super frustrated.

I've been with Zava the whole time, I'm finding waiting for them to release the new prices very stressful.

Good luck with the pens, communication with them is non existent at the moment. I emailed a query about whether it was ok to not order for over 8 weeks as I have two pens in the fridge and do the bonus dose, (I didn't tell them I used the bonus dose) still haven't got a reply.

FFS just had a notification that they tried to deliver today.

Apparently they have left it outside 😒

Hopefully as it is RM they have put it round the back out of sight unlike the amazon guy who leaves stuff on the front path in full view of the road!

Weepixie · 27/08/2025 17:11

Mines is on its way two hours after re-ordering it.

morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 17:52

Omg. Juniper want pictures of me with my belly hanging out.. wtf? Tempted to say nah cancel but then I'm thinking it's another 10mg pen for under £200 . Can't remember price think was about 150 or 160..

morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 17:58

Oh no @WorriedRelative when do you get home to check? . Hope its there for you

FurForksSake · 27/08/2025 18:04

I’ve always sent awful underwear photos for mine, it’s their penalty for getting rich selling me jabs 😆😆

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/08/2025 18:04

@Weepixie you are lucky that you can afford the higher price if need be

the before price was ouchy as single parent but the new price is really ouch so def will start dropping or microdosing

@MrsHerbs79 they sent another email saying order is complete and will be dispatched today ……

fab @PoemsForTea

@morbidcuriosity I’m two days behind you on the 16th so should be here very soon esp with email this am

how annoying @WorriedRelative. Can they leave in a safe place ?

@Motnight glad your order has arrived and fingers crossed the others come

@FurForksSake I rarely use my stick but I did today as went to the dreaded Bluewater which I hate. I found people more accommodating to me with one

also noticed the same in tenerife. It’s well know cars don’t stop at zebra crossing there yet in my daily walk to beach and found cars actually stopped for me 😂

@WorriedRelative can you ask a neighbour to bring in to theirs ?

@morbidcuriosity I said that I think this am about the pics of Jake’s belly ffs

Oh ffs even more. Just had text from them saying my side hanging belly is approved but my front isn’t so can I retake
really 🙄🙄🙄

OP posts:
morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 18:10

Oh what.. this is silly. But for the price I think I will send them. But not home till 20:30 so can't do till later.. I shall make it as horrible as possible.. not looking forward to that. They questioned my last box with July date too, they know we all stock pile and take 5th dose..

I know it's for our health etc and they need to be seen to do it right, but bloody annoying

morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 18:11

@FurForksSakehaha. Love that, penalty for making money off me.. lol

morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 18:16

@Blondeshavemorefun how on earth can side belly be approved but not front.. that is ridiculous, its the same belly haha , am wondering if they are just causing delays so it goes past 1st Sept then charge you more.. tempted to cancel. Really am.

I shall send my pics tonight, then if not heard by Friday I think I will try cancel it, don't want to pay the higher price, just wanted another at normal price..

WorriedRelative · 27/08/2025 19:29

The postie left it in the back garden, DH has brought it indoors - phew!

I'm not normally so anxious about deliveries but it is a busier than usual week and with three pens it is a massive amount of money

@WorriedRelative yay, panic over all good

morbidcuriosity · 27/08/2025 20:25

Well I've sent my half naked fat pics to juniper, and if not heard by Friday I will message to cancel, I do not want to be charged Sept price, I just got a gut feeling as its so close they will try it and I will be stumped with an expensive mistake.. oh well, fingers crossed they accept my pics tomorrow.

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/08/2025 20:40

They replied quite quickly to me so fingers crossed

Going to give Juniper a try 🤞

Azuresky68 · 28/08/2025 09:33

Does anyone know the price for a 5 mg pen with Juniper and a 10 mg pen please. I am going to try for a pen that I will use in January...my hope is that by then I can maintain on 5 mg but might be more cost effective to buy 10 mg and make it last longer.
