Todays refill finally came through

After weeks of calling and checking the portal, my refill finally shipped today and should be here in a couple days. I was starting to sweat it since I am down 14 lbs and really did not want to lose momentum. Does anyone else's pharmacy cut it this close every single month, or did I just get lucky with a weird cycle?

Mine on tirzepatide was the same every cycle until I started requesting the refill as soon as I injected my last dose, now it shows up with days to spare. Down 12 lbs myself and I get not wanting any gap to break the streak. Congrats on 14, that's real progress.

Mine ships so late I basically built the anxiety week into my routine at this point. I'm about 13 lbs in and the fear of a gap messing with my rhythm is real, so I feel you. Starting my refill requests a few days early worked for me last cycle.

Mine does the same last-minute shipping dance every cycle, and nudging them early is the only thing that fixed it for me. Congrats on the 14 lbs, that's awesome progress to protect.

#5

Mine cuts it close too, I've learned to just expect the panic week at this point. Only 5 lbs in on my end but I get the fear of losing momentum completely. Asking early like the other poster said seems worth a try next cycle.

#6

Mine does the same dance every month, like they wait until I'm down to my last dose before shipping. I started requesting the refill a week earlier than they say to and it's been less nail-biting since. Congrats on keeping the streak alive, that 14 lb drop is real progress.

Mine kept shipping at the eleventh hour too until I started nudging them at the start of the last week of my vial, and the stress mostly disappeared. Six pounds in on my end so a gap would scare me just as much, so glad yours landed.

#8

Mine cut it close every single time too, so I just started calling the day I take my last dose and it's been smooth since. Eight pounds down here and I know exactly what you mean about not wanting anything to interrupt the groove.

#9

Mine used to ship at the wire like clockwork until I started requesting the moment my pen ran out, no gaps since. Nearly a year and a half in now, and those early-tense waiting days get easier to laugh about once the streak is long.
