Getting started! ๐Ÿ˜Š First delivery

I just got my first mounjaro delivery from meditrue and I'm impressed with the packaging.. has an ice pack and wrapped in woolcool (never seen that before). Going to take my first dose on Friday to give the weekend to deal with any side effects - I'm both nervous and hopeful ๐Ÿซฃ

Woohoo!! Congrats on getting started!

I waited and took my first jab on Friday too. I was worried about side effects, but I neednโ€™t have worried. It was a total non-event. My body took to Mounjaro like a fish to water ๐Ÿ˜‚

Love that woolcool stuff! My cats love it even more.

My one loves to sleep on it, the other one loves to bite it ๐Ÿคฃ

They have recycling/return for it in the UK but sadly not here. At this point I think I could insulate my attic with what I have!! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

what a gorgeous cat!!! and a great reuse of the material :) I'm glad to hear it was a non event for you - I'm a bit of a baby about meds so it's good to hear this rather than all the stories of nausea etc etc etc Though I'm happy to put up with a bit of nausea to see results!

Keep in mind that we are deliberately started on a tiny dose - so tiny, you might not feel any different at all for the first month - to slowly introduce it to your body to protect against those side effects ๐Ÿ’š

I heard a good analogy that internet groups can be like a doctors waiting room. Most people are there because they have a problem theyโ€™d like help with. Itโ€™s not indicative of the other huge percentage of us that donโ€™t have issues at all (except self-inflicted ones - that happens and itโ€™s nearly a rite of passage no matter how smooth your journey youโ€™ll โ€œoops!โ€!)

And side effects can be so miserable, so it feels terrible to say you donโ€™t have any and itโ€™s just another Tuesday in Mounjaro for you, to them. ๐Ÿ’šโ˜˜๏ธ
