Once it’s been used for the first time you don’t need to keep it in the fridge. I’ve just done my 1st injection then stuck it in a drawerI’ve ordered my first Ozempic pen and hoping it arrives soon.
I’m wondering if anyone travels a lot for work and how they manage it. I’m cabin crew so am. It always home on the same days and will struggle to always keep a pen in the fridge. Any advice please, thank you x
Oh amazing that’s good to know thank you.Once it’s been used for the first time you don’t need to keep it in the fridge. I’ve just done my 1st injection then stuck it in a drawer
Hang on in there. I’m more than 20 lbs down since I did start losing. It’s been extremely slow to come off but it is coming off. I’d be 2.5 stone, and maybe more, heavier if I hadn’t started on Saxenda and then moved over to Ozempic.Should’ve said - first 3 weeks were 0.25 and have been on 0.5 since then. Think I might give 4 weeks at 1.0 a go and if I haven’t lost any by that stage I might just haven’t to accept that it doesn’t work for me. Which is a big shame as nothing seems to get the weight off and I’ve tried a lot
Follow the method. I get you want a quick loss but it’s been said many a time on here ozempic takes longer. You’re racing ahead and expecting results instantly.Should’ve said - first 3 weeks were 0.25 and have been on 0.5 since then.

Me. My BMI was 27 but I am from a high risk ethnic background (according to the NHS, where a BMI of 27 becomes the threshold rather than 30), prediabetic and have family history of diabetes so I thought Health Express would still prescribe to me but they said no after explaining the reasons above. So I went elsewhere with the knowledge that I would need to be slightly creative with my weight. If your BMI is over 30, you don’t have mental health markers and you’re not pregnant or trying, you shouldn’t have any issues.Just ordered my first Rybelsus 3mg (scared of needles!) and to be honest i'm a bit scared to start.
Is there anyone who didn't initially get approved then went elsewhere? wondering what the reasons might be for them saying no... I ordered from healthexpress. any advice for a scared newbie would be appreciated!
It does require patience and many people don’t lose on 3mg (it’s just a dose to get your body used to the medication) so 2.6lb is a big loss in a week. And if you’re constipated your actual loss may be more than that. I would have loved 2.6lb in my first week on 3mg.Day 7 on rybelsus and am only 2.6lb down. I was hoping for more by now but I do think I'm starting to suffer with constipation. I still feel tempted by wine and ate a couple of chocolates yesterday but the rest of my diet has been good. I'm just hoping I can hold it together at the weekend (the time I usually pile it back on).
Have you tried health express? I had no issues getting it from there.I am 4 weeks off ozempic. Hoping to find a pen soon. I will have to scale back to the beginning at this stage. I'm trying to keep a very balanced approach to food. I'm enjoying it more though which is a bit dangerous for me. No cravings yet. No real sweet tooth back. Had baked potato with salad last night. Cous Cous and veg for lunch.
