I just feel like a different person. When you look good, you feel good. Whether it’s going into a meeting in a nice suit, or just trying to find a shirt where you don’t have to worry about hiding your belly, it makes such a difference. When I look at my ‘before’ pictures, I can’t believe that was me.

I’m 63 this year and I go to the gym four times a week. My blood pressure is normal, I don’t snore anymore, my BMI is down, and I have more energy. I don’t eat junk food, and I honestly think this has added 10 years to my life.

I used to walk onto a plane and see people thinking, ‘God, I hope he’s not sitting here.’ Now, I feel much more comfortable. I don’t have to worry about people wanting to avoid sitting next to me or being that ‘big lump’ anymore.

My BMI is down eight points, and I finally have the energy to go to the gym four times a week without feeling out of place.”

MedExpress has supported me really well from the beginning of my journey. I got emails initially advising on how to start up and things to look out for.

Starting the medication when it arrived was extremely easy. I thought the directions that came with it were very straightforward and easy to follow. I found that really helpful.

I reached out once to customer services quite a while back regarding an order that had been put on hold, and I got a reply that dealt with it really quickly. That was very positive.

I would definitely recommend this service to friends and family. The main reason is simply that it works. I also recommend following the guidance in the emails — it’s really worthwhile reading them as they come through to help support you on your journey. I find integrating the medicine into my routine really easy because it’s only once a week. The fact that it is just once a week is so easy... it has fitted in very well with my lifestyle because you don’t need to do too much.

I think the first moment I realised this was working for me was probably after two or three weeks, because I really noticed the pounds coming off.

Being on the medication has impacted my life outside of this because I feel like, ‘Oh yeah, let’s go for a longer walk.’ Before, I’d really struggle and get hip pain if I walked too far. So now it’s nice to just go out and not feel it too much the next day like I used to.

I think just not feeling hungry was a huge thing, because I was like, ‘Wow, to actually not always be thinking: What am I going to have for lunch? What am I going to have for dinner? What’s the next thing I’m going to snack on?’”

I had gained over five stone since having my three children and I had tried every diet under the sun. I finally plucked up the courage to try Mounjaro and it has changed my life.

I’ve not only lost four stone but I am happier, more confident, full of energy and able to run around after my children for longer.

Mounjaro has drastically improved my physical, emotional and mental health.

MedExpress have been so supportive in my journey and have always been available if I have had any questions.”

I think it’s definitely important that [MedExpress] is a registered and trusted site. There are a lot of sites and places selling now that just seem to have popped up out of nowhere. And if that was my starting dose, I wouldn’t be very confident just getting it from anywhere. I’m losing around a pound or two pounds a week, which I’m being told is a steady, healthy, good loss rather than to lose everything really quickly.

I think it’s made me more confident by losing weight — happier too.”

I’ve not had anything bad to say about MedExpress. I really like the emails that I get through — they’re very helpful and they come at the right time and they’re not overbearing. When I’ve had to contact MedExpress, they’ve been very good, responsive and gave me good information.

I liked that [MedExpress] had the referral scheme as well, because it also gives you something back to help. So you weren’t just getting that first initial discount for being a new customer… It was a continued thing.

My problem has always been overthinking with food. I know what I should be eating but I’m over-eating. I was never satisfied. I never stopped thinking about food… so having that food noise turned off and being fuller and more satisfied is really helping me. These weight loss injections are doing everything that all those other [weight loss methods] couldn’t do.

It’s really helped with not obsessing over thoughts of food; what I’ve got in the cupboard; what I’m going to have in a minute. Once I did the food shopping, I used to sit there and think, I’ve got all this food now. What shall I have for lunch? And then what shall I have for dinner? And then tomorrow I’m going to have this and that and I’ll cook this for my husband. It was just constant — constant food thoughts, food obsession.

It’s given me such peace at knowing that’s taken a lot of pressure and weight off my shoulders in terms of food noise. Obviously there are other things in life that are still weighing on me but it’s one less thing — and that is such a huge thing for me. It’s been really good. I was weighing up the health issues from being overweight or the health issues from trying to lose weight. For me, I wanted to get healthier and lose weight for my son.

The risk of getting any of the side effects was considered… But for me, my weight was high. I was getting backaches, headaches and I was getting ill because I was overweight and overeating — and feeling horrible in myself. I was always sluggish and feeling miserable and then I’d get moody because I had guilt and misery… ‘do I continue this misery or do I risk something that might not even happen but I’m going to lose the weight and feel better in myself?’”

I wish I had started sooner. It is just amazing. Just for myself, I feel a lot better. Mentally, my well-being is 110% on this journey. This is what I wanted. For a 60-year-old woman, I can manage my life a bit better.

Using MedExpress is easy. It makes it simple to cut out high-carbohydrate foods like bread, pasta, and rice because it quiets the food noise. I eat much more protein and vegetables, and I drink a lot more fluids, which helps get rid of the nausea. Overall, my experience with MedExpress has been very positive, especially for my relationship with food.

I started to get a lot of heartburn, so I reached out to MedExpress, and they were quick to respond to me.

I can run up the stairs now. I can run. Well, I can run anyway, but I’m not sluggish. Not sluggish anymore. Going up the stairs is a lot better. A lot better.”
