Mounjaro

[ISpeds00]

Where are they getting it from? Im interested in it.
Loads of people ads on tiktok etc but never know what you're getting if anything from there

Mate of mine is using it - and selling it at the same time
Buys it online off some chap that's heavily been promoting it for a while

RETA that is

[gazr]

Can you find out who ut is please. I might have a do with it

[Darnhill Claret]

Just checking in for my weekly update.
Strange week.
Down from 14-13 to 14-11, with a step-up in strength of meds on Thursday.
Nausea on Thursday and today. A side effect to be expected during the transition.
Apart from that nothing significant to report.
Good luck and good health everyone.

Question as I'm curious. How do these pens affect your metabolism? If your appetite is being suppressed, you eat less and your metabolism drops accordingly. Does this not affect your weight loss also? Ie slows it down?

Bump for an answer if anyone has one.....

ChatGPT says -

I’m not a medic, but the way these GLP-1/GIP drugs (like Mounjaro) work is a bit different from just “eating less = slower metabolism.”

Appetite suppression: Yes, you eat less, but the body doesn’t instantly crash your metabolism in the same way it would with crash dieting.

Hormonal effect: The meds mimic natural gut hormones, which not only reduce appetite but also influence blood sugar regulation, digestion speed, and satiety signalling. That seems to help preserve weight loss momentum even with lower intake.

Metabolism: There is usually some slowing of metabolic rate as body weight comes down (that happens with any weight loss), but the drugs aren’t thought to dramatically suppress metabolism beyond that normal adjustment.

Why it still works: The main driver is sustained adherence — people can keep in a calorie deficit without the constant hunger battle, which is normally where metabolism + appetite push back hardest.

So in short: metabolism may dip a bit as you lose weight, but the medication’s mechanism helps offset that by making the reduced intake manageable over the long term.

[Darnhill Claret]

Balance that with the extra energy you get from losing weight, less weight to carry, less weight being carried by your joints of knees and ankles.

[Darnhill Claret]

Best, if you have any medical concerns, use the support available, and of course your GP.

A lot of Retatrutide doing the rounds in Burnley at the minute - lot of people seem to be taking these jabs as an alternative (Cheaper with potentially better results)

People are genuinely injecting themselves with something they’ve bought off a random bloke?

Christ, I know the governance around Mounjaro isn’t great with the online pharmacies, but at least you knew what you were getting.

Anyone who buys from this guy are playing Russian roulette with their lives, its been proven that a lot of these ‘fake’ weight loss drugs have very bad side effects

Never said random bloke - the bloke they've got them off is very reputable in the gym/weight scene
Some people in Burnley are making fortunes off these skinny jabs - male and women

Buying chemicals from a guy at the gym......what could possibly go wrong

Wouldnt do it myself - they are getting the results they are after though
What the side effects will be, god knows. Each to their own

Surely its the same as buying off your local dealer for a weekend session - chemicals you have no clue about, yet millions do it

... and both are equally idiotic decisions.

Hahahaha!! Sums up the mentality of some

[FeedTheArf]

Hahahaha!! Sums up the mentality of some

Don’t get me wrong, I sympathise with the people doing it. The price increase of Mounjaro was always going to force some people into cheaper alternatives but it’s absolutely frightening!

[GetIntoEm]

Same lot get their teeth shaved in turkey, sniff tanning sprays and do 3 bags of coke on a weekend. Another thing won't matter

[G0foste]

Been on it now for just over 4 weeks, lost 2
1 stone 4lbs so far.

Been on it now for just over 4 weeks, lost 21 stone 4lbs so far.

5 stone a week. Well done

[GetIntoEm]

I'm 2 weeks in on wegovy, 2kg down

[mdd2]

Seen the odd person high on this having bought off internet. Rub was it was amphetamines not mounjaro

must have had a limb removed
At 9cal/gm of fat assuming you need 1500cal/day, to lose 32lb or 32x16x28gram = about 75,000 calories or over 2000 calories per day in negative balance and I have taken into account that fat in the body is about 40% water. You must have had a pretty high BMI when you started this to have such a good result of 32lb weight loss.

[GetIntoEm]

Thanks for those that used my referral code, hopefully you got your £50 off.

Severe lack of willpower on here

[GetIntoEm]

Severe lack of willpower on here

If it makes people healthier, and they are funding it themselves then why does it matter?

[Darnhill Claret]

Well for me, it has given me the kick start that I needed.
My new eating regime is now established after 12 weeks, but as I am signed up to a 5year trial, with health issues paramount, my personal willpower has returned.

[ŽižkovClaret]

Not like you to spout ill informed unfounded shite......

[Pearcey]

If everyone just ignores him and his ignorance, then this thread (which is about people improving their health) will not descend into the rubbish that was on the transfer thread.

[FCBurnley]

Thanks for those that used my referral code, hopefully you got your £50 off.

Do you get paid for getting new customers ?

[GetIntoEm]

Do you get paid for getting new customers ?

Yes, they get £50 off and I get £50 credit

[Tribesmen]

Anyone who buys from this guy are playing Russian roulettese ‘fake’ weight loss drugs have very bad side effects

Yer need to lose 5 kg so had a go but the side effects were really bad as I wanted to buy a Blackburn Rovers Season Ticket . Came off them after one go the doctor asked how I was ? I asked him if Barnsley were at home on Saturday .
Stay off them that's l can say ......

[ClaretinJapan]

I'm 2 weeks in on wegovy, 2kg down

I shat that out this morning.

[GetIntoEm]

I shat that out this morning.

Id see a doctor

[Darnhill Claret]

Another 2lbs.
Now down to 14-9 from 16-7 (26lbs) in 12 weeks.

[Pearcey]

2 stone 6lbs gone for me in 10 weeks. I’ve reached the weight I wanted for my wedding next Saturday. Delighted. 8 jabs to go! Want at least another stone off.

[Darnhill Claret]

Wow, well done Pearcey, especially for reaching your target. Have a great day next Saturday.
2lbs per jab will do it then.

[Pearcey]

Cheers DC.

[G0foste]

I have done from 16st9 to 15st0 in 5 weeks. Really happy with the progress, I want to lose another 2 or 3 stone though.

[Darnhill Claret]

Excellent news from the doctor today. Blood tests done last week.
As a result of reduced readings re diabetes, my metformin has been reduced by half.
Next blood test in 3 months.

[Darnhill Claret]

First week with no weight loss.
I suspect that I am now on the placebo, but I've had enough of a kick start to continue this, positively.
Currently at 14-10, up 1lb on last week, my first weekly increase in 13 weeks. Appetite needs to be better controlled and I need to make a greater personal effort.

Have a great day today Pearcey. Best wedding day wishes to you and your wife.

I’ve been on MJ for 2.5 months now and have lost just under 2 stone so far. I used to play rugby regularly and ending up piling the weight on when I stopped. I piled even more on when my son was born and I suddenly had no free time at all.

When I first heard about MJ, the person telling me about it was on about food noise and I thought it was a load of rubbish but I soon realised that it genuinely was a thing. I used to grab a snack just for the sake of it and it became a habit.

Yeah, some people will say “just eat less and move more”. They’re right of course but I find using MJ just helps with focusing my mind elsewhere to the point I just don’t think about eating crap like I used to. It’s been a real game changer for me.

Like someone else posted above, I have a referral code for Simple Online Pharmacy that anyone is welcome to if they want it. For transparency, I would also get £40 off my next order. If anyone wants it, great! If nobody wants it, it’s not a big deal. Every penny counts now the prices have gone up!!
