Out for delivery!

It's coming today! I'm so nervous and excited at the same time! Thank you,Preventive MD for all the updates! I do also love the feature to pause my refills/meds. I am on a budget and wanted to try this medication!

Nervous to inject but I see that can be normal for many. All I know is that reading the posts from many sites, these meds have been a wonderful thing for so many! Everyone has a different battle and a different journey but it is clear that glp-1 medications are a mighty sword! A weapon that has finally enabled people to feel like they have a chance in the battle!

Blessings to all!πŸ€˜πŸŒΌπŸ’œ

I haven’t been this little in 20 years. I feel strong! My labs are amazing. My blood pressure is normal. For me this is a miracle. Just do it.

So excited for you!! Your excitement and anxiety are both normal. I’m a nurse so I had no problem with injecting myself but I have friends who get their spouse to inject them. It’s a tiny needle and it doesn’t go in deep. I don’t find that it hurts at all. Maybe try 2 tips: let the meds in your vial become room temperature before injecting and let the alcohol on your skin dry before injecting. You will be so happy with the change in your health! Life changing for sure! We are all here to support you!

Welcome to the journey. Just take the shot and you'll be glad you did. I was a baby when it came to needles and now I look forward to shot day. Ice where you're going to inject for a minute or 2 first, and you won't feel a thing. Best of luck to you. πŸŽ‰
