We have all been on for heading up to 20mths now- 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

We are amazing !!!

All of us have totally changed our body shape - reduced our bmi and weight and hopefully improved our health
most of us are at goal - and working out how to maintain - some nearing it

And some still have weight they want to lose

We are still here cheering you on till you get to your happy weight so please do carry on posting

Some have stopped for cost - esp after the aug announcements - still so thankful we started it when we did
Imagine Aug 25 and being told 2/3w later prices were increasing lots

I def couldn’t have managed a year of mj at new sept prices esp as doses didn’t really effect me even 15 !

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

This next year will almost be harder.
To keep the weight off Esp if reducing dose or off completely - and we are finding it def harder to keep weight off with lower doses

Wow. Just looked at under 200 for medicine marketplace and they were quick when I used before

I can’t rem what used to pay before the Sept hike but 200 a month is far better

weird tho it doesn’t have pharmalous on it

This proce cut has made me very happy & is v timely as my daughter is about to go to Uni!!

morbidcuriosity · 01/09/2026 16:06

Don't think its all pharmacies. MMP have said you need to order every 35 days to have that price or it goes back to normal price. And they are encouraging bundle deals..
I think im gonna try get a 12.5 and 15 . Be £426 for both. And hope to carry on click counting would see be handy.

PoemsForTea · 01/09/2026 17:09

Ive been using MMP for some time. I really rate them 🙂

Blondeshavemorefun · 01/09/2026 20:38

Which ones are 6/7 @Blondeshavemorefun? Which one is 5 weeks?

morbidcuriosity · 02/09/2026 04:43

The new cheaper ones from Medicine Market place is 35 days, says if your later than that you pay more.. ha.

I think Pharmalous is 7 weeks..

might be worth getting a 2 pen bundle from MMP seeing as the price is really good, even if you dont order again within the time limit..
Im gonna wait though, I reckon they are busy busy busy this week.

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/09/2026 10:51

Yes MM are 5w and Pharmolous 7w @Azuresky68

Going to investigate those 3 and make a plan! Swift is a bit more expensive but I got a reply to say you can order every 8 weeks. Got back under 9 stone so feeling motivated now as no more holidays or celebrations until November as my throat op is scheduled on 25th September.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/09/2026 10:49

Still sts tho as been at a wedding and ate /drunk assuming that hasn’t helped

but bloody hard to lose these last 3 lbs

Weighed in on Friday 8 stone 13 pounds. Still on 10 mg. My next jab is Monday..really hungry today!

FurForksSake · 05/09/2026 20:15

I’ve started a 10mg pen and have been on 12.5 for ages. This week I’ve been beyond exhausted. I’m assuming it’s being chronically ill and stressed but it feels weird timing wise. I’ve also missed taking my vitamins so maybe they actually do something.

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/09/2026 20:23

Are you going to stay on 10 forever @Azuresky68 or try 7.5 or even 5

I really wanted to reduce down to 5 mg for cost reasons and that was my plan in January. Sadly I gained quite a bit earlier this year, despite being on 10, so my plan hasn't worked so far. It's my jab day tomorrow and the last 2 days I have been so hungry even on 10

Azuresky68 · 06/09/2026 10:03

@Blondeshavemorefun are you still on 10?

You have doing really well under very difficult circumstances. My guess is that tiredness is linked to chronic pain and stress. Sending hugs 🤗

Azuresky68 · 06/09/2026 10:07

I haven't needed painkillers at all for 5 days 🤞the back procedure has helped.

morbidcuriosity · 06/09/2026 14:08

I feel you. 10mg was amazing for me. I loved it. But cost has made me try lower. I did 5 weeks of 7.5 and now im 5th week of 6.25 and finding it harder. Im still at 11 stone. I cant seem to get back to 10.10 . But I shall keep trying, as long as im not going above 11 im ok..

Do we think pharmalous are going to do the cheap prices like MMP? I hope so, save changing. Ive heard they might say something this week. Who knows..

Azuresky68 · 06/09/2026 10:03

@Blondeshavemorefun are you still on 10?

Yes - I did drop to 7.5. Then 5. Then 2.5

i really want to shift those 3 pesky lbs and get back to 10.4 before I go back to 5
