Has anyone with a BMI of 26 managed to get Mounjaro prescribed?

[absolutebuffoon]

Hi all, I’ve been yo-yo dieting pretty much my entire life. I’ll be really disciplined and lose weight, but then the food noise and cravings will take over and I’ll lose all control and eat loads and put it all back on. I’m absolutely sick of the cycle and from what I’ve looked at, mounjaro would help with this by minimising food noise and helping reduce that dopamine hit I clearly get from eating. BUT my bmi is 26-27 with no underlying conditions, and from what I’ve seen I’m going to struggle to get it prescribed. Has anyone in a similar situation managed to get it prescribed and which company did you use? Thank you!

Yes, probably lots of people now that Voy and MedExpress will prescribe off licence to people with a BMI from 25 without any other criteria. Not me, my BMI was 50 when I started so strangely no one questioned any of my photos....

As someone who started waaaay back in early 2024, I'm amazed companies now openly prescribe to people who are barely overweight, let alone not obese. No judgement, don't want to get into that debate yet again, I just find it...surprising...after all the hurdles we've had to navigate over the years, all the proof of obesity we've had to repeatedly provide, the verification of height, details of health issues, the endless photos and videos, and updates.
