9 times out of 10, the term “miracle product” means “super-well-marketed-and-super-full-of-BS.”
Call me a cynic, but as a millennial and citizen of the internet, I’m so jaded from all of the so-called miracle products I see on social media that I don’t believe anything I see. So a few months ago, when I saw my colleague throw back a couple droplets of SkinnyRx’s GLP-1 in her mouth, I laughed in her face.
But, after she told me she had lost 15 pounds in two months and seen noticeable improvements in her eating habits since beginning her SkinnyRx regimen, I was intrigued. And, not going to lie… she looked GOOD.
I’ve spent the last 3 years attempting to shed the same stubborn pounds to absolutely no avail. And every time I’ve been let down. So… I hit the web to learn more.
I was excited to find that celebrities such as Chelsea Handler, Brooks Nader, and even Oprah Winfrey had used or even endorsed the medication. And after perusing the 2,000+ SkinnyRx reviews on Trustpilot, I don’t think I’ve ordered faster.
“What is it” You Ask? Apparently, a “Cravings Killer in a Bottle”
Nope, that’s not a marketing ploy. Semaglutide GLP-1 has been coined this because it works.
Allow me to geek out for a moment… so, Semaglutide (aka GLP-1, aka Ozempic) is a naturally occurring hormone that helps to create a feeling of fullness and maintain healthy blood sugar levels in the body. Semaglutide, the active ingredient in name brand drugs Ozempic® and Wegovy®, imitates GLP-1. From what I gathered, SkinnyRx takes semaglutide and, by partnering with FDA-regulated 503a and 503b pharmacies, produces their own compounded version.
Allegedly, it’s known as a total cravings killer.
The SkinnyRx Difference
Reviews submitted to Trustpilot are not incentivized, so to see an authentic ranking of 4.8/5 stars was incredibly impressive (to put it lightly). It was rewarding to peer back behind the curtain, past all of the marketing mumbo jumbo, and directly into the consumer experience. I read gushing accounts of top-tier customer service. Most notably, there were no comments about stock or inventory issues, which I’d heard was an infamous obstacle in the realm of GLP-1.
I also learned that SkinnyRx (a) specializes in GLP-1 and (b) maintains fair prices. Friends of mine have registered for weight loss support with alternative providers and been prescribed ambiguous “medication packs” that lack the demonstrated efficiency of semaglutide.
SkinnyRx prescribes GLP-1 exclusively, so I knew exactly what I’d be offered (should I choose to apply for a prescription). It was time to jump in.
Smooth, Intuitive Registration Processe…
The intake survey felt a little bit like a doctor appointment, only way more casual and speedy because I could type my answers and speed through to the next. The questions were standard: medical history, experience (or lack thereof) with weight loss products, personal stats like height and weight, etc.
When it came time to submit my responses to their team of licensed medical providers, I decided to push through and apply for a prescription. You can imagine my surprise when, just 6 hours later, I received confirmation that I’d been approved and my GLP-1 was on the way.
All SkinnyRx clients are guaranteed receipt of their prescription results within 24 hours. Plus, shipping was free and expedited… once again, impressive.
Receiving The Delivery
My treatment kit arrived within 2 days, and inside was everything I’d been told to expect: syringes, alcohol pads, instructions on how to inject, and an information sheet explaining my ongoing access to check-ins with the SkinnyRx team. I was a bit nervous, but I felt well-prepared.
The box contained a month’s worth of treatment. (That was all I’d subscribed to, so I could see what SkinnyRx was all about before committing to anything longer). I figured I could handle anything for a month…
My First Injection…
Before administering my first treatment injection, I made sure to read and follow the instructions to a T: I confirmed the semaglutide vial’s “Beyond Use Date” (BUD) hadn’t passed yet, checked that the syringe unit markings aligned with my prescribed dosage, and thoroughly washed my hands.
Then, it was time to whip out the alcohol pad. I decided to inject my treatment into the front of my thigh (the side of my thigh or my abdomen were the other two options) because that felt like the most accessible spot for this initial run.
Sanitizing the area and flicking the syringe (to remove air bubbles) made me feel like a Grey’s cast member. It’s never too late for a dream to come true, right? I expected a wave of anxiety when I finally moved to inject the needle, but it was so teeny tiny, and the overall insertion so fast, that it was over almost before I’d realized it had gone in.
Okay, I thought, I could do this once a week.
Does it Work? You Bet it Does!
I’m writing this after 2 months on GLP-1 with SkinnyRx, so I’m speaking from the vantage point of a long-term run with SkinnyRx. Over the last 12 weeks I’ve seen a highly consistent—if gradual—progression.
The near-constant carousel of thoughts surrounding what I should eat, and when, and how much, is far less noticeable… It’s as though a generous chunk of my mental real estate has been freed up for other, more important thoughts (and yours can too after taking their quiz).
Then, there’s the confidence piece. My increased energy has given me the boost I needed to start moving more (mostly, I’ve been taking more walks) and between that and the loss of 12 lbs thus far, I’ve felt a sense of renewed peace and trust in my body.
Those two reasons were all the proof I needed to keep taking Semaglutide from SkinnyRx. I signed onto the four-month plan, but at this point, it might not be a surprise to hear that I’m strongly considering the longest-term 12-month plan.
If It Seems Too Good To Be True, It Almost Always Is. Almost.
If anyone knows the ceaseless disappointment of weight loss programs, it’s me. But I also know now that SkinnyRx takes the frustrating, cliche old patterns and turns them on their heads. I don’t want to guarantee anything, because I know that guarantees can be extremely disappointing, but I will say that SkinnyRx has been the solution I’ve waited for. The solution I had begun to think couldn’t possibly exist.
