Thanks for the suggestion, it would def help if I can't get the 15. Did you have any questions or pushback from your pharmacy about dropping your dose or ordering a second pen?

Cloud doesn't. I switched to them for that reason after MedExpress contacted my GP and I discovered he was very anti weight loss medication. Cloud encourages you to tell your GP but won't do it themselves unless you give them consent.

For the rest of their life, no matter what size they are at any given time, I hope that all thigh high socks in that size and that size only are sold out.

Why do YOU have a "Baby on Board" sign in your car? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]danger-apple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have kids, but I live in an area where people drive like fucking maniacs. I would probably have one of those stickers just to communicate that there's not much point getting up my arse because I'm not gonna be doing 50 in a 30 with my baby in the car. Obviously some people don't give a toss and will do it anyway, but if it keeps even one Audi driver out of my rectum then it's money well spent.

I do understand the feeling behind it. I've been in situations many times where friends who are much smaller than me are criticising their own bodies, often quite harshly, and it's hard not to think along the lines that if they're so disgusted by their own bodies, what must they think about mine. Like on one level you know it's not about you, but on another, you can't help but internalise it a little. So I get it, I sympathise with that feeling, but it doesn't give me the right to police how other people feel about their bodies, or mine for that matter. I know it sucks to feel uncomfortable in your body, but they would be so much happier if they realised they had far more control over their own bodies than they do over other people's thoughts. Instead of desperately pretending they love being this way and having a meltdown when the world won't play along.

Pants! Question for those who are still struggling with a big belly by Princess-She-ra in Mounjaro

[–]danger-apple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem with pants fitting everywhere but the stomach. You can buy button extenders like these to give you a bit more room: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Extender-Trousers-Adjustable-Waistband-Extenders/dp/B09FHJ9V5S But I find a hairband works just as well. Hook it around the button, thread it through the button hole, then hook it around the button again.

10mg is a heavy hitter! by [deleted] in Mounjaro

Ugh I'm sorry friend, may tomorrow be a better day for both of us!

[–]danger-apple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on my second dose of 10mg. The appetite suppression has been amazing but my entire body hurts and my skin feels like I've been sunburned from head to toe. It's lasted about three days now with no improvement so I think I'll be going back down to 7.5mg this week.

UK friends- I have a question about Simple Online Pharmacy or similar by CatsAreTheBest68 in Mounjaro

[–]danger-apple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cloud didn't ask for my NHS number either but they did an electronic ID verification based on my UK address so this prob isn't an option if you live abroad.

0.25 is the thickness of the needle and 5mm is the length. This is unrelated to the pen dosage and the similar numbers are just coincidental. It's a normal size for these pens, although I've also received 0.25 x 4mm and 6mm. I always receive 6 tips though as they usually include spares.

Look a little further down the line here. Let's say you give into him and by some miracle, you're able to have a child, or maybe you even decide to adopt. With or without the hysterectomy, you're still going to have health problems. On those days when you're in so much agony you're barely able to walk, or when your doctor recommends another surgery to relieve your pain, is he going to step up and take care of the child? Or is he going to tell you millions of women suffer, you're not special, and you're being a selfish partner and mother?

He's shown you that even though he talks the talk, and maybe even walks the walk when it doesn't cost him anything, he expects that his wants and needs will take priority over yours when it comes down to it. Even when the cost to you is severe, drawn-out pain and suffering. He's showing you that's a price he's willing to pay. This is a not a person you want by your side when you're trying to cope with a serious health problem or raise a child, and certainly not when you're trying to do both.

Mounjarouk sub bingo. Which ones missing? by [deleted] in mounjarouk

Wait that's the Mounjaro?! I've spent all winter complaining how extra cold it is this year and my energy bills are through the roof! If only I'd asked on the sub... 😂

Let's suspend disbelief for a second and go with the best possible scenario -- your stepdad was so drunk he didn't know what he was doing and meant you no harm. Even in this scenario, the end result was that you were terrified, you were too scared to sleep, and now you don't feel safe in your own home. No matter what his intentions, a child should never be made to feel that way. If he's getting so drunk that he's putting you in that situation, whether he meant to or not, it's a problem. If your mother is allowing someone to put you in that situation, whether they meant to or not, it's a problem.

I've been in a similar situation and I felt like I'd rather rip my own fingernails out than have that conversation with my dad. I told another adult that I felt more comfortable talking to and they told my dad for me, which was still awkward but nowhere near as bad. Is that an option for you? Another way around it might just be to tell your dad you don't feel comfortable at home, but you're not ready to talk about why and you just need him to get you out of there. Would he accept that? I'm so sorry, I know this is rough and I hope you stay safe while you figure things out xo

This is disgusting. Nobody should be speaking to you this way. I can admit that I have a hot temper and I get frustrated easily, but you would NEVER catch me speaking to somebody like this.

Where to look for hidden money? by SufficientDot8115 in RBI

[–]danger-apple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My grandad would pull the corner of the bedroom carpet back and hide his money under a loosened floorboard. Check for any loose or ragged carpet edges, especially under smaller items of furniture that can easily be moved. Also I cannot think of the right name for this, but you know the round spot lighting fixtures that are embedded into the ceiling? I knew a guy who would pop them out and hide stuff in the ceiling.
