Bit the bullet after being off MJ for 6 months and putting back on nearly 3 stone. 😥

Anyone else on it or thinking about it? Maybe we could share our experience?

I’ve heard its more for maintenance as it isn’t as good as MJ, mj still the best

@MissCooCooMcgoo there's this thread for August starters - https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/weight-loss-injections/5570939-foundayo-starters-august-2026?utm_campaign=thread&utm_medium=share

Is it the cost that's putting you off going back onto Mounjaro, or trying Wegovy?

Yes cost, but also the faff of the injections. I can just take these with my evening medications and take them wherever I go easily.

At the moment just maintenance would be fantastic. I absolutely HAVE to stop gaining more weight. I out so much work in and am undoing it all.

I think it's worth a try, the weight loss on Foundayo is not as high as the injections but results will vary by individual. The cheapest supplier on the comparison site atm does the first month at £44 with the standard new customer discount and the comparison site discount code.

I’m starting Monday. I was on MJ for a year and lost 3 stone and became diabetic in remission 🙂. I just couldn’t afford to keep on MJ for another year ( I need to loose around another 3 stone to get to mid overweight. So going to start this as a fresh start with the extra fluids protein etc.
At 58 I’ve done a LOT of diets since I was 14 and this has been the best for me

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 😍

Hello folks I forgot about this thread 😁

Just over a week in and I'm pleased so far. I was concerned that it wouldn't be as effective as MJ however I have found it to be as effective as my first 2.5 dose of MJ with less side effects and more consistently effective as im taking a dose everyday unlike the gradual wearing off of the effects of the injection across the week.

Food noise, although not gone.l, the volume is waaayyy back down. I've stopped mindlessly snacking and im 2kg down so, win.
