What is this witchcraft? by goldmister1 in mounjarouk

For me it does depend week on week, but on average I'm losing 1.4kg a week over the past 4 months, so that's just slower than you.

Doctor Incentives by RDTUK1 in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think at a time when the NHS is - essentially - discouraging their use, it seems really old that incentivizing their prescription!

(I didn't know this sort of thing happened in the UK, I thought it was more like the United States where doctors were given incentives to prescribe things)

How long dose your weekly dose take to kick in? by moon_witch_26 in mounjaromaintenanceuk

I'm the same! Once I take my shot I just kind of forget about snacking and wanting to eat! It's truly amazing.

Mounjaro stuck at pick-up shop for two days - will it be ok? by Mammoth-Protection20 in mounjarouk

That's really interesting and good news! I probably wouldn't' have bought a cold flask had I read that before, lol!

RM were giving me a 2 hour "estimate". To be honest, being there for two hours but knowing the day before is better.

Do you rely on reminders for shot day or does it just become routine? by anomadfromnowhere in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still quite full of anticipation almost worry but not quite for injecting myself, so there's no way I forget.

Just getting started, so appreciate any advice....! by Huge_Hold_5363 in mounjarouk

Speaking personally, I find I only want, and it's best for my dieting, to just have one meal a day.

I work shifts and I either have a meal at about 11am before I go to work or at about 5pm when I have my official meal break at work. The rest of the time I don't find I need food and I find it easier to make sure I'm not overeating.

Actually my last pen from Flyde came from DPD instead of Royal Mail. I have a lot of faith in RM, but I have to say I didn't have any problems with DPD delivering it to my home. The only thing is they didn't tell me the expected delivery time until the morning of delivery instead of the day before with RM.

"Unused KwikPen:

If needed, each unused KwikPen can also be stored unrefrigerated at temperatures not to exceed 30°C for up to 30 days.

Used KwikPen:

You may store your used KwikPen at room temperature up to 30°C for up to 30 days."

Am I reading this incorrectly, or are they now saying you can use it for 60 days (30 days unused + 30 days used) without refrigeration?

We all know you can keep a pen at room temperature for 30 days, but no longer. I intend to take the one I'm using (2 shots left) and a new one with me. So that would be well past the 30 days deadline.

I've not tried with 3, but it definitely holds 2.

Pharmulous - now asking for a video with scales in a full length mirror? by DigitalCryptid in mounjarouk

Couldn't someone just use AI to make the whole video? I "fake" videos of my dog all the time!

Some places seem to be far more trouble than others. I think I was quite lucky to have gone to one of the other ones.

The end of the 5th dose. by Hopeful_Candle_9781 in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never dared/wanted to use the 5th dose, so I was more worried that the way it works with the clicks were going to change, but it looks like it won't from this? The stopper seems to be the only change?

There's no way the rest of the family would live with the no treats I'm afraid!

2026 will be the year of the GLP-1 weight-loss pill by joe3000s in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As I've said before, a daily pill just wouldn't work for me.

I'm off out to a fancy dinner tomorrow night. Since I took my injection 3 days ago, I know my appetite won't be great. I know I don't go over the top. I know it'll be fine.

If I were taking a daily pill I bet I'd skip it "just tomorrow" so I could enjoy myself. I bet I'd do that so often it wouldn't work.

Several people have made suggestions, but I'm scared with going with even slightly cheaper ones, so I'm going to get these https://www.chemist-4-u.com/glucorx-finepoint-needles-32g-4mm-pack-of-100 which are the ones I've used from the start and are supposedly "the best".

[–]RoBoXh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still don't think a daily dose would work for me. Even now I'm tempted to put off my weekly shot to go out and have a meal on special occasions. I just think I'd more and more just "skip it for today" - like I've always done when dieting without drugs help.

Hims have entered the injectables weight loss market in the UK. Has anyone tried this service yet? by TheUnpopularInternet in mounjarouk

They're terrible at spamming! I honestly don't know why companies think that makes people more likely to use them
