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

Today is a day off diets. Mini blondes 9th birthday so we had cake for breakfast 😂

@Blondeshavemorefun Happy 🥳9th Birthday to mini blondes! Hope she has a wonderful day! Is she having a party?

First week back on 2.5mg & I’ve lost 4lbs! Think it’s always more the first week. Just about to jab 2nd dose. I’m actually really surprised-I didn’t think I had much suppression at all, don’t really feel like I’m on it to be honest. But it’s clearly done something! Hoping I’ll lose a steady 1-2lbs a week for the next couple of months to get back to where I was last August.

FurForksSake · 28/03/2026 08:28

Happy birthday to mini blondes! Well done @Glittermoonlight great effort!

ive not had my oushk order approved yet, it’s been waiting ages and still pending. However I did a second order yesterday for delivery on Thursday as they had an offer on and that has been approved by the prescribers, so that might turn up!

NippyNinjaCrab · 28/03/2026 09:24

Happy Birthday to little mini Blondes, enjoy your day with her @Blondeshavemorefun
I jabbed 50 clicks, my digestion is slow and I think I will have a day of liquids to get it moving. DH doesnt know im back on it yet, so dinner last night was a pizza at his request and it lay in my tummy all night. I had 2 small slices. The previous 2 nights dinners also were sitting in my stomach a while, I could taste them the next day or it seemed like that. We have a lunch booked for today so my choices can be seperate from his. Hes actually lost 7lbs and does seem to be making a conscious effort to cut down snacking and move more. He did make a comment on my arse last night, how is it now compared to how it was at my lowest, it was compared to a McCoys crinkle crisp last year 🙄. Yes my weight dropped mostly from legs and arse and if it does the same this time so be it.

Where is the dry weather?! My garden is like a mud cauldron 😂

NippyNinjaCrab · 28/03/2026 09:24

@FurForksSake I will check out their offer, I am going to order a 5mg.

NippyNinjaCrab · 28/03/2026 09:26

Ffs thats a great offer, does anyone know when it ends, I cant order until Monday.

Which pharmacy please? I am trying to find the cheapest but I am on 10mg.

Azuresky68 · 28/03/2026 10:40

At the moment I am with Pharmulous and 10 mg will cost me £244.99 including postage. Any better offers out there please? I have had a 7 week gap since last order 😱

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 28/03/2026 15:53

morbidcuriosity · 28/03/2026 17:25

@Azuresky68i think the cheapest new customer 10 pen is 221. Im sticking with pharmalous for the sake of 20 quid and the faff of new pics and videos etc. As im maintence I cant be bothered to change now. I hope they put out a £10 off code again, I keep looking I need to order next week for delivery the week after, I order early incase they want calls etc as I think it will happen soon.

NippyNinjaCrab · 28/03/2026 19:40

@Azuresky68 sorry its Oushk doing £40 off but it doesn't stipulate when it ends xx

NippyNinjaCrab · 28/03/2026 20:31

Won't let me edit last post but its for new customers only at £40 off, the other code is 22 off.

Azuresky68 · 29/03/2026 14:49

Happy Sunday everyone. I used the LOYAL code to get free p&p so my 10 mg pen is costing £239.99 from Pharmulous..waiting to see if i get approval 🤞

FurForksSake · 29/03/2026 14:51

It amuses me that we are finding it hard getting pens in maintenance when Voy are not prescribing off label and you can get it very easily.

Oh..I am not sure what off label means 🤔 I bet Voy is expensive?

FurForksSake · 29/03/2026 14:56

they are prescribing to people with bmi 25 and above as they use medics to prescribe instead of pharmacists. So they can decide who and when to prescribe. Pharmacists are very much more tied in to the guidelines of the medication and can’t deviate. So has to be bmi 30 / 27 with certain conditions and the regular prescription intervals for maintenance etc.

morbidcuriosity · 29/03/2026 15:29

Im gonna order in a few days, I will try the loyal code, hope it works for me too.

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/03/2026 15:41

I’m Hungary on 10. Seem worse 2nd time round going higher

yes I’m in my ballpark but to keep other need a high ish dose

I’m still so annoyed that I went from 5 all happy /no gaining. To 2.5 and struggled since then

OP posts:
FurForksSake · 29/03/2026 15:50

For me there seems to be a cycle, if I eat more “treats” I want more “treats” and I feel hungrier. If I can reset by having a few really well planned days the desire for treats lessens and my appetite suppression is better.

Just had a NSV...bought hot cross buns just now while at supermarket with BF. He has eaten 2 and I was going to have 1 but then I realised I wasn't hungry at all and was just seeing it as a treat. Feeling great about that 😊👍 I have decided to be really strict about only having 1 treat day a week. Yesterday BF bought a small packet of chocolate raisins and I got a packet too...horrific amount of calories in the small packet 426 calories for 100g..nearly the same calories I would have for evening meal. I am going to look into ways of not associating food treats with enjoyment and think about all the benefits if losing weight...feeling great in a size 8 and veing able to walk up steep hills without having to stop for breath!

You will get there eventually Blondes..it's tough though and I am still on 10 too...trying not to think about the cost 😱
