I am down about 32lbs in the last 6 months and have about 20lbs to go until I am at my goal weight. I have been getting the medication thru my doctor who orders via some local compounding pharmacy here in Wisconsin. I am due for a refill at the end of the month and he said he can order me the same 6 months I ordered at first for $900, or I can do a 12 month supply for $1300.
Now of course the 12 month supply is a much better deal, but I’m wondering if I even need the 12 months considering that I lost over 30lbs the first 6 months and now it’s just another 20lbs I want to go down.
I feel like I can go the 6 months, lose the last 20lbs, and then taper off it to maintain the weight in my own. But at the same time I don’t want progress to stall and I am getting another refill in 6 months.
I know everyone is different and I’m probably asking a question that nobody will have an answer to, but what would you guys do? My doctor didn’t have a good answer he said it’s basically up to me, but he did seem to lean toward only getting 6 months as he wants me off this medication at some point.
