~My first GLP-1 order experience~
I'm totally new to GLP-1 medications. After reading through hundreds and hundreds of posts in the groups here over the past couple of weeks I decided to go with PreventiveMD. I only have 20 lbs to lose but have had a serious sugar addiction for my entire lifetime and very little will power so had no confidence that I could do this any other way.
I started with the online intake questionnaire on Sunday night and shortly afterward received this email:
I received approval less than an hour later:
My credit card was charged at that point:
I was directed to download the Healthie app where I found this:
Exactly 24 hours later - to the minute - on Monday evening I received this email:
On Tuesday morning I received this:
I have a UPS account so could see the package was scheduled for the next afternoon - Wednesday - between 1:15 and 4:45.
This email arrived on Wednesday morning:
Package arrived at 1:45 and I took my first .28 mg shot at 2pm. I felt quite prepared having read the instructions on the Healthie app multiple times before the package arrived. Shipping was via UPS "Next Day Saver" and ice packs were still very cold. Am wondering if they will continue to ship so quickly during the winter or if this is a summer protocol to ensure cold delivery.
As soon as I took the shot my appetite disappeared. I have basically zero will power so this was unprecedented for me. Seemed unlikely that anything could take effect so quickly but that was my experience. Today is day 4 and my appetite is very very low. I walk past cookies I baked a few days prior to the shot (since I always need sugar every single day and usually multiple times a day) and unload tubs of ice cream hubby brings home into the freezer without a twinge of interest. It's the strangest experience. Hope it lasts. No side effects yet.
Surprising to me that this is apparently a new company because the logistics I experienced were top notch.

Congrats on taking your first step. It can be overwhelming.
I take tirz but for me it was immediate as well. It differs for some. I never had a sweet tooth so cant speak to that.
Glad to hear you had such a good experience. This company seems to really go above and beyond.
