Foundayo starters August 2026

[HarderBetterFasterMother]

I am expecting a delivery of Foundayo tomorrow. Is there anyone else out there?

I’ve hidden my 2.5mg tablets in the back of a drawer and trying to forget they’re there until I finish the current 0.8mg pack! Really having to sit on my hands though!

Recap - lost 2 stone then maintained for a year on 2.5 to 5 of MJ.

2.5 FD still working well for me, nearly 4 weeks in. Still not drinking anywhere near as much booze, despite the fact that we’re on our holiday.

Glad I didn’t have to start on 0.8 - best wishes to everyone still getting through that bit - but I don’t think I’ll need to move up to the next dose (note that this is actually 5.5mg for FD).

Weight - unknown, but my belt size is unchanged !

Two weeks in. 1.7kg down
Still think it’s as much fibre and protein as it is the tablets but…I’m hungry when it’s a mealtime but much less snacking in between. Like I say, it’s still 0.8mg 🤷‍♀️ who knows really. Will keep updating

2.5 is a vast improvement on 0.8. Much more suppression.

For the first time since starting (23 days on 0.8, 4 days on 2.5) I have that feeling when eating that I am going to be sick if I eat anymore and have put a half eaten plate of food in the bin. Can't say I'm not delighted.

Interesting, maybe my food suppression will kick in soon, now that I have been on 2.5mg for a few days.

First day for me, couldn’t find a September starters thread. I’d never wanted to take the jabs because of the price mainly, but my weight has risen to over 17 1/2 stone in the last couple of years and loosing weight seems a good way of reducing the health risks I have.

Hi Everyone....I've been on Foundayo now for 10 days - luckily no bad side effects.
Over the last 30 years i must have tried ( & failed ) every diet out there!!
The food noise has completely shut off which is amazing - Is this how regular people live their lives without constantly thinking about food.
The only thing i have found is that although i aren't physically hungry i still have a light headed feeling i always got in between meals - Its as though my brain is telling me I'm hungry but my body is saying I'm not - very strange!!
Has anybody else had this feeling?
Good luck to everyone - Lets do this 😍

Never heard of that one before, but I doubt you’re the first. Try searching the forum.

I often do get a feeling of mild dread as a meal is put in front of me - and I instantly realise I can’t eat it all. Just the old “clear your plate” mentality kicking in I suppose. Happened yesterday.

Just ordered my third pack for when I return. Sticking on 2.5mg which seems to be doing the job for me nicely.

Hope everyone else is doing ok ?

Feeling lightheaded is common when not eating properly. Are you ensuring to eat enough for your body?

I’ve got 5 days left on my 0.8 dose before going up to the next dose. Not feeling any different/no side effects. My appetite is back to normal after only 5 days (from around days 4-9 of the course) of appetite suppression. I’d lost 4lbs and put 2 back on. Really struggling not to skip the last few days and start the next lot early!

I've just ordered the next dose up 2.5mg. As much as I am seeing a slight difference on 0.8mg, I think I am ready for the next dose. Still have a week to 10 days left of 0.8mg as I was on holiday.

I am slightly worried about side effects. For those on 2.5mg, how you all feeling?

@Loveab123 day 5 of 2.5mg and I am experiencing light nausea which, ironically, is making me feel as though I want to eat! Hopefully this will settle in a couple of days (it started yesterday).
Don't necessarily go by me, as I found I suffered quite bad lethargy and nausea when on MJ, even on low doses. Besides which, people respond differently.
The only reason for trying Foundayo, is that I have put a few pounds back on, which I am struggling to lose and as I have a holiday coming up, I am concerned that my weight may spiral. So far, weight loss has been zero but I am hoping that this will change soon.

Nearly four weeks in, so coming to end of starter dose. 2.2kg down. Have definitely had some, but not consistent, reduction in hunger.
2.5mg this week. Will, as ever, report back 🤞

Are you eating enough? Nausea can be a sign that you are not.

@clapalongnow, unfortunately I have put on a pound, rather than lose weight since being on Foundayo, so don't think it's that.

Well done!

I’m almost at the end of my starter dose. I’ve lost 12 lbs which I’m delighted with. No side effects either. In the last week I’ve noticed a tiny bit of food noise returning so I’m going to go up to 2.5mg

Took my first dose of 2.5mg this morning! Hoping to see/feel more progress now. 🤞🏼

Hello all, im starting FD next monday, as im on 1mg wegovy, the pharmacist suggested I start at 5.5mg FD anyone have experience of this and what I might expect?
TIA

Started 2.5mg tonight, fingers crossed I have little side effects like 0.8mg.

Reason I stopped MJ was the side effects and how unwell it made me. Losing weight definitely isn't worth feeling like that in my opinion.

Hope you are all okay!

How are you getting on?

I’m starting new dose tomorrow hope the side effects stay away. How about you ?

Have lost almost a stone on 0.8 for a month. Moving up a dose. Two things to note for me, really need to stay hydrated. Makes a big difference.
And the tablets make me very very sleepy. So instead of taking them first thing in morning, am going to take before now.

Just taken my second dose of 2.5. Even after the first dose I felt less hungry despite being in work all day. Usually come home starving and have to snack (bowl of cereal) to keep me going till dinner. Had to make myself eat something at dinner time though. Made a smaller portion than usual but couldn’t finish it.

No side effects so far. 🤞🏼
