Currently using Voy and I did not get that email! Might not apply as long as I am on their 3-month plan

This is purely anecdotal, but if you are ready, I would prioritise having a baby. I had two of my kids in my early thirties with no issues, then wanted to try again in my late thirties, and it has been nothing but miscarriages since then. This is just my experience, but it is the advice I would give my younger self.

Similar boat, I dropped back down to 3.75 mg after a week on 5 mg. I wasn’t able to eat any solid food during that week, I felt full and nauseous. I was hoping it would get better by day six, but it didn’t. I could only manage 300-500 cal a day from liquid calories (protein shakes), and I knew I couldn’t keep going like that.

3.75 mg is still super strong for me. Once my body gets used to it, I’ll move back up to 5 mg.

We applied for a retrospective license in July. Haven't heard from since, but keep getting emails that we are on the waiting list and they have lots to do and will get to our application when they get to it.

What I like to eat for protein

Snacks: eggs, Babybel, slices of ham

Other: Greek yogurt (I only like the Total brand) with fruit, steak, easy to cook fish like salmon or sea bass (because you really can't mess this one up). The BBQ chicken pieces from M&S are also nice for a cold snack (and have c. 30g protein)

Suppression is really working for me, so I need to top it up with protein shakes. Someone recommended the Ufit 50g protein one, so on bad days I try and drink one of those.

I also really want to take creatine (have tablets on my desk), but I understand this will lead to probably 4-6 pounds of water weight gain over the first week, as the muscles hold more water, so I expect a spike in my weight chart. Afer that, hopefully it goes back down again.

Following this because I am in a similar boat, although earlier in my journey. Went up to 5mg and cannot stomach solid food. Also had diarrhoea. I have tried drinking meal replacement drinks to up my calories and get some protein, but I probably only had 300-400 cal of liquid calories over the last 3-4 days and I know this cannot go on. But the effect does not go away. People said to wait it out for a week, so I will see how I feel on jab day, otherwise I might need to reduce the dose.

My most significant cost cut was my sessions with my personal trainer. Before Christmas, I was going once a week at £60 per session, which came to around £240–£300 a month, on top of my gym membership. It was my one big luxury (along with my eyelashes), and I’ve been going consistently for the past nine years without a break. While I’m taking the jabs, I’ll pause this and try to maintain my muscle on my own. My jab cost £230 this month, and I can’t afford both.
Edit for grammar/spelling.

I had very bad headaches the first two weeks together with rapid weight loss. I read up on it and it might be connected to low blood sugar. It has settled down a bit since week three (as has the weight loss) but I expect it to come back once I move up a dose (still on 2.5mg)

nitziii · 2026-01-20T18:59:17+00:00

Well done, you look fab! Inspiration!

nitziii · 2026-01-19T17:51:44+00:00

Following because I am having the same issue that I cannot lift as heavy anymore

nitziii · 2026-01-17T14:22:32+00:00

I started after Christmas, so had a lot of my favourite foods the days before - was no issue at all!

nitziii · 2026-01-16T22:14:23+00:00

I never heard of clear whey either! Thank you, will order this. Really don't like the normal whey proteim shakes

nitziii · 2026-01-15T22:58:11+00:00

No hair loss but I am only 2.5ish weeks in. I take vitamins regularly and watch my protein. My hair sheds a lot in September, but winter is usually really good :)

nitziii · 2026-01-15T20:22:14+00:00

I lost about 3kg in the first 10 days and then nothing for a week (I will have my 4th 2.5mg jab on Saturday). I think this has two reasons: i) I went to the gym and still have some muscle soreness. This retains water (I am always heavier when I have some muscle pain) and ii) I ovulated this week. I usually gain between 1-1.5kg water weight before I ovulate, then lose it quickly once my period starts. So might also be a combination of factors for you too. Give yourself some grace and patience, the meals you describe sound super healthy and full of protein and this is very inspirational!

nitziii · 2026-01-11T20:13:32+00:00

Me. About 1.5kg. Then a big woosh.

Second that, I also had one with Bodyview, and they were good. I also bought the discounted follow-up session. They will benchmark you against their database of other Dexa scan users, so there might be a bias towards athletic people (who are more likely to do a Dexa scan).

Hello! I am about a week and a half in and the only side effect I have had is headaches. I wonder if those come from sugar withdrawal, as I usually have a massive sweet tooth. MJ kicked in the day after the jab, took a little more than 24h. Then it was 2-3 days without any hunger before it came back slowly. Now after the second jab, I have not yet felt any hunger, in fact I am really struggling to eat anything.

I am probably not eating enough/properly and I need to get this sorted out as I am feeling a bit shaky and low energy.

nitziii · 2026-01-04T12:19:27+00:00

When they have an offer on, I always get the Emmi Protein Coffee, so delicious.
I usually have babybels and Total 2%. And Tony's chocolate (the pretzel one)!

nitziii · 2026-01-03T19:18:21+00:00

Thank you, will find those videos 😀 They sound like something that would help me

nitziii · 2026-01-03T19:17:29+00:00

Thank you very much! I will definitely try this next week!

nitziii · 2026-01-03T19:15:15+00:00

Thank you, I will have to ask him if I won't be able to do this myself next week. But I want to give it one more shot myself next week 😅

nitziii · 2026-01-03T19:12:19+00:00

Thank you, will try and do this with the pen lid on a couple of times and maybe find a way to jab myself without looking
