Depends on how long you stay o each dose, at 0.6 a pen will last 17 days, 1.2 dose 8.5 days etconline pharmacy have for £57 a sharps bin, pen and 100 needles? how long would this last? just don't want to buy the wrong thing xo
I will stay with a low dose for now and see how I get on, thank you xDepends on how long you stay o each dose, at 0.6 a pen will last 17 days, 1.2 dose 8.5 days etc
My first pen has lasted me 3 weeks I’ve stuck to low dose mostly and went to 1.2 a few times xI will stay with a low dose for now and see how I get on, thank you x
That’s brilliant! Well done. My doc didn’t suggest anything else, he was just quite dismissive about Saxenda. I’d be so happy to lose even 10lbs.I’ve been on it 3 weeks and I reckon I’ve lost 10 pounds which I haven’t been able to do for at least 5 years on diets etc just wondering what the doc suggested for you to try ?
Same, I've got a horrible cold, I've been off work for nearly a week with it which seems ridiculous, definitely not covid I've had a negative PCR. Anyway, I have also eaten nothing but crap, cake biscuits etc so I'll definitely have a gain. I also haven't had an injection since Saturday so I'm hoping when I start again it'll kick in fast and I'll lose what I've put on.I’m not going to have a loss tomorrow and probably a gain. I’ve been ill with a cough and head cold since Sunday and I’ve been feeding it with cake and party food left over from my daughter’s birthday at the weekend.
I’m still not eating a massive amount but it’s 100% bad stuff with the exception of homemade soup and a pear I had today.
Wow great work!!!20lbs off as of this morning. I think I’m at about 11 weeks in.
i need this but i’m sooooo scared of injections when i have a blood test i bloody get scared20lbs off as of this morning. I think I’m at about 11 weeks in.
I faint when getting bloods done. I have to lie down!i need this but i’m sooooo scared of injections when i have a blood test i bloody get scaredbut i need 20lbs gone wooooow this sounds AMAZING
i might have to because 20lbs this sounds tantalising!!! obvs i’m taking some anxiety meds before had because i can see me getting stressed and i haven’t even ordered yet!I faint when getting bloods done. I have to lie down!
I weirdly like doing my Sax jabs.
My first pen was in the fridge for 3 weeks before I plucked up the courage to start!i might have to because 20lbs this sounds tantalising!!! obvs i’m taking some anxiety meds before had because i can see me getting stressed and i haven’t even ordered yet!
I've read this thread with interest and part of me does wonder whether it's more than just the pen? Like 'I'm paying £XXx for this so I'll put extra effort in as well' - have there been any trials done where one lot of people have the pen and another lot just eat healthily?I’m on day 4 now and what I’ve noticed is a change in my mindset! It’s like my brain has kicked in and said it’s not a magic pen, you need to put work in and I’ve never felt so committed, in fact my meals for the past 4 days have left me so satisfied. It’s a great motivator actually!
The clinical trials involved placebo pens (where people thought they were getting medication but they weren’t) and they lost weight too. Not as much as the ones who actually got Saxenda but there was a pattern of weight loss in both groups.I've read this thread with interest and part of me does wonder whether it's more than just the pen?

Not knocking anyone it's working for, of course (or I wouldn't be thinking of doing it myself!), just wondering.
I’m also from Ireland and finding it hard to secure an appointment with an endocrinologist due to backlog. I was going to just buy it from the Uk but apprehensive just in case I get really sick with it.Marking my spot here as I'll be starting Saxenda in the next few days - just trying to shift some unrelated nausea first (wouldn't want to pile nausea on nausea!). My endocrinologist (who is also a bariatric surgery specialist) prescribed it as I have a large amount of weight to lose and I'm not so keen on weight loss surgery. Costs c. 250 euro in Ireland for 5 x 6mg pens, 100 needles and sharps bin
Hello, can I ask where you ordered from to be delivered to Ireland?Nikkinoo,
Can you remember when you started back in May on day one how did it take for the Saxenda to kick in? I’m not feeling anything. I’m still able to eat my meals and a small snack in between. I do eat healthy but it’s the snacking that gets me.
Hi,
Did you get sorted? Im in Ireland and received a delivery today from a different UK clinic
