Anyone else waiting for this? I am, let’s start a thread to see how we all get on. I have two stone to lose. My DH said yesterday that ‘I am a bit plump’. Upset, though it’s true.

Me. I have only been eating 1000 a day and I am on day 4. I just can’t stomach anymore. I don’t know if that will wear off as my body gets used to the pill or not.

Funnily enough about an hour after finishing my tea, I felt very full and bloated and needed the loo. And I don’t feel hungry currently. We’ll see if that lasts until bedtime at 11pm!

When I had my bagel earlier, I naturally reached for a bag of Wotsits afterwards as I am a crisp fiend! But I got halfway through and just felt like I didn’t actually want them anymore and threw them away (I NEVER throw away crisps!). Then I questioned whether it was because I genuinely didn’t want them or whether I felt bad/nervous about eating them!

So maybe it’s partly due to the tablets and partly due to my nerves! I keep second guessing myself 🤦🏽‍♀️😂

I wish that was me! Day 2 and I have battled hunger all day. Keep opening cupboards and looking for food. I’ve gone 200 calories over, am still a bit hungry and managed 200g of carbs. Really fed up tbh this was my last attempt at the last 7lbs or so after 19 months cc with a holiday in 7 weeks.
I also have a head cold and it’s a heatwave - all things that curb appetite in normal people!

It’s only day 2, so I’d wait at least a few weeks before worrying.

This is my last hope too, I’ve tried everything else and if this fails I have no idea what to do.

Day 5 here and I’m really surprised that I haven’t had any issues except tiredness. The suppression is enough to stop any cravings to binge, but I am still able to eat 3 meals a day (albeit small meals).

Tomorrow will be my first 12hr shift at work since starting, and I hope I can resist all of the office chocolate. 🤞

Completed my first week on Wegovy pills and lost 4lbs without really trying. Got 1 1/2 stone to lose to get a 24bmi and determined to do it by Holiday in October. I am with bolt and have a referral discount code if anyone needs one.

I’d be grateful for the code please.

StoppedToTieHisShoe · 27/07/2026 23:50

Has anyone used MedExpress for this? Is it true that its £59.99 per month for the 6 month subscription even when your dosage increases, even up to 25mg pills? That's what the chatbot on their website is telling me but its seems too cheap compared to other providers?

SilenceInside · 27/07/2026 23:56

MedExpress don’t do a subscription @StoppedToTieHisShoe. Their chatbot doesn’t know what it’s talking about. Have a look at the pricing info on their website:

https://www.medexpress.co.uk/landing/weight-loss/g-w-1-new?promo-code=NEW2026&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Brand&utm_term=medexpress&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=167901282&gbraid=0AAAAADoldr47GmUKtWOYRixp83YQx704u&gclid=Cj0KCQjwg5zTBhCLARIsAP2AFU49BmrQOrEiELz7AnJf7-mr1Qng6X0VHEX-mlBizhvMU6XyKfy_YEkaAk8pEALw_wcB#treatment-comparison

It’s £59.99 for the 1.5mg dose and only for the first month of that. If you stay on the same dose for the second month it would be £100, then the other doses are £119 for 4mg, £159 for 9mg and £199 for the 25mg.

So annoying that the chatbot is so wrong! I knew it had to be too good to be true!

I would point out to the AI chat bot the information on MedExpress’s own website (copy and paste the link into the chat) and tell it it’s wrong. I bet you it apologises and admits its error. I would also send the screenshot of the AI telling you nonsense to MedExpress and ask them why their AI is making up nonsense about their pricing.

StoppedToTieHisShoe · 28/07/2026 00:18

I have rated the chat as poor and copied and pasted the chat bot info, and I've sent an email to customer service of the same. Sadly it is too far out of my price bracket. Still tempting but I don't think I can justify it. Although ill keep reading the thread to enjoy everyone else's success!

digitalkiosk · 28/07/2026 06:29

I have woken starving this morning and with a headache. Took my tablet at 5.45 and I am just about to eat. Usually I don’t eat until I get to work at 8. I haven’t eaten much at all in the last 4 days so it looks like my body is telling me to eat. I am pondering moving my dose from 5.45/6 am to 7.15, just before I leave for work.

24HoursFromTulseHill · 28/07/2026 06:45

Day 21
I've lost 3.3kg and beginning to notice that some of my clothes are looking better - not dropped a dress size but things that were snug are now a bit looser.

When I've lost weight before through willpower alone I've managed a 5kg weight loss but not been able to get any lower (and not been able to sustain it) so even if I can't get to my healthy BMI, anything more than a 5kg loss is a success in my eyes.

Glenthebattleostrich · 28/07/2026 06:49

Day 1 here. Took tablet at 6.10. About to have my morning water and cup of tea.

Fingers crossed for movement on scales. Starting at 14st 5 with 3 stone + to lose.

SandDunesAndSaltyAir · 28/07/2026 07:00

I’m day 12 - have lost 3kg so far. Starting weight 73kg - would like to get down to 65kg, which puts me into healthy BMI. I’ve had a very social few days with 50th lunches and parties though, so although my hunger is suppressed I’ve drunk a fair bit. I’m focused again now so hoping for a decent loss this week.

Have just ordered my second month - decided to stay on 1.5mg as the suppression is pretty strong for me. Will see how it goes.

I’m with Bolt who have been very easy and helpful - I was approved quickly with no video call needed. If anyone wants a referral code (£40 off your first order, making it £59) let me know.

Poppycorn123 · 28/07/2026 07:32

I'm on day 12 and still feeling exhausted. My muscles ache even going up and down the stairs. I physically can't tidy the house because I feel so lethargic. I'm taking multivitamins and iron tablets too. Does anyone else have this?

AprilFlowersMay · 28/07/2026 07:37

@Poppycorn123 are you eating enough? I know it sounds silly, but I think if you are eating significantly less than you used to, it will affect your energy. Who is your provider? Might be worth having a chat with a clinician about this (who will tell you whether this is within the range of normal and will pass as your body gets used to it, or whether it is something you need to do something about!).

poolcrew · 28/07/2026 07:43

I’m on day 16 now and I think I have my groove. Take my tablet at 6.30am. Coffee at 7. Breakfast at work at 11.30am. Lunch at 3pm. Snack before I walk home from work and then small dinner at 6.30pm. Coming in at just under 1000 calories. I’m not hungry at all. Might have a few more calories on a Saturday but still not drinking alcohol or eating chocolate which is definitely helping.
am 13lbs down now. Assuming it’s going to start to tail off soon to a more steady smaller loss. I’m with Morrisons as I didn’t shop around, once i decided to do it, I literally clicked on the first company I recognised 😂 happy to share a code if people are moving providers

wegogovy · 28/07/2026 07:50

Day 7 and I’ve lost 2.5kg. If I hadn’t have taken the plunge I can guarantee I’d be 2.5kg heavier this week.

socks1107 · 28/07/2026 07:50

I’m day 3 and have woken up really queasy! It’s like morning sickness again. Took my tablet and hopefully that is an encouraging sign that some suppression will start after yesterday’s hunger and cupboard raid.
it’s so encouraging reading everyone’s losses hoping for the same and to be where I want in September for a holiday.

anyone else been quesy and it go away or does it last?

I don’t have muscle aches, but my god the tiredness and lethargy are awful!
I’ve read that it’s pretty normal and will improve, so I’m holding on to the fact it won’t last forever.

Yes mine was over by day 4 thankfully. It was just like morning sickness queasiness. It was unpleasant but short lived

HurrahforHollywood · 28/07/2026 09:56

Can someone provide a code for Bolt? Can I order a months supply or do I need to subscribe?

Hi - I've PM'd you my Bolt referral code in case you still need one.

I don't think it's a subscription but I'm new to this!
I've been on the 1.5mg tablets for 2 weeks and just ordered the 4mg tablets for when this current 30 day batch runs out

I'm on day 14, starting weight 12st 3lb, now at 11st 8lb... I'm also doing low carb high protein alongside the 1 5 tablets.

Using Bolt but you can cancel at any time if you don't want it to auto renew after your first month.

I think I'm going to stay on 1.5 next month with the results I'm already seeing.

There are also plenty of discount codes via this site:

still finding my feet with appetite. I feel like I barely want to eat anything and sometimes I’m having to remind myself to eat at all. I worry about that. To be honest it has taken a lot of the pleasure out of eating. I’m in the full throes of PMS though so maybe the lethargy and misery of that is clouding my previously positive attitude! I used to scoff a few chocolate bars to cheer myself up but couldn’t bear the thought now! 😂
