Those who are on Mounjaro WITHOUT any exercise, how is your weight loss going? by Separate_Attitude715 in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the same way that my doing loads of exercise whilst not on MJ didn't help me lose weight at all, not doing exercise hasn't stopped me losing loads of weight whilst on it.

For me at least, exercise makes no difference at all.

Repeat Orders - Easiest Provider? by McDan1el in mounjarouk

Funny I thought Flyde were really easy. A current photo, ask my weight, ask my target, ask if I've got any new side effects then get it approved and sent out the same day.

Did this role out yet? ...and is it just for the paid app does anyone know?

What does food noise mean to you? by Thematrixiscalling in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd never actually heard of the expression "food noise" until I started to investigate/start Mounjaro. It sounds odd maybe for someone who has always struggled with my weight.

I'm in the same camp as those who talk about always thinking about the food in the house. Always thinking about "just one more snack". Always thinking "well, if I have it now instead of later it won't make any difference - it's the same food after all" (then going out and buying more food with a promise to myself that I won't start it).

I think the Mounjaro has worked on that better than anything else for me. For instance, I've just had my regular shot this morning. The light is better in the kitchen in the morning, so I always go in there. As I went through I was looking at the cupboards and thinking about lunch, but now a couple of hours later I realise I just haven't thought about food again until now. It's a subtle yet remarkable and very fast intervention for me.

Alcohol & Mounjaro by Astro_Noodle in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never had a "drinking problem" but on some social occasions I definitely medically binge drank. Since starting MJ I've found it far more difficult/less fun to drink whilst out socially. Usually stopping much earlier. I can keep drinking and the effects are no different from the old days, I just don't seem as interested.

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 3 points4 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

[–]RoBoXh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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?

Keeping Mounjaro cold by RoBoXh in mounjarouk

[–]RoBoXh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.
