I did a you and skipped a week and felt comfortable because you said it was fine, so I will also change my day because of you because I like to have a day after a new injection so I am going to start taking it on Saturday morning because I am of course off the next day because it’s Sunday so yep starting 5 mg

Welcome to the Zepbound fam! Love the updates with Fridays. They are an amazing program.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you sis! 🥰 and yes they are the best

[@naomimoturi]

I just found your channel today! I'm amazed and proud of all of the progress you've made. You’ve definitely eased some of my fears and anxiety about the process as I'm about to start my GLP-1 journey soon!! Thank you!!

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Aww I’m so glad! That the reason I wanted to share 💕 good luck on your journey!

[@inspiredone2235]

Congrats 🎉on your weight release. I’m with Mochi Health and the monthly fee is $79 and Tirzepatide is $275 regardless of dosage. This has always included unlimited physician and dietitian appointments. For those choosing branded meds they can obtain from pharmacy of choice. I like that your provider is now waiving the monthly fee if I heard the director correctly. Congrats on your appeal👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

That’s great!

[@vibezmissi]

Keisha thank u for putting me on. I got my first prescription from Fridays. I got a sample from my doctor for munjaro 2.5. Saw ur video on KZbin and signed up to Fridays they raised my dosage imma take my first dose this week. Week 5 this week n im down 12 lbs from the 2.5 munjaro ...... im soooo grateful I can't wait to see what 5mg will do!!!!

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Yaay I am so happy to hear that! 💕💕

[@vibezmissi]

@@keepingupwithkeisha girl thank you bc I wouldn't have found them without you!!! Currently on a 3 days fast!!!! Trying to reset my body and mind!!

[@kimyoung-west744]

One thing that I have noticed since starting zepbound is that sweet things seem sweeter. I put less sugar in my coffee.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Hmm interesting, i haven’t noticed that but I’ll have to pay attention

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you dear! Congrats on your journey so far! And I have always wanted to go to Cali so that would be a dream 😊

[@seutatia]

Amazing results, you look melted down with increased energy! Thank you for your transparency. Does the medication affect performance in the gym? (Speaking specifically on Lifting, HIIT)

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you! And I honestly haven’t been working out like I want to so I’ll have to make an update once I get back to being consistent

[@EJDOPECHICK]

You are looking GREAT!!!

[@ms.toythereview1839]

Great info I thought the compound expires after 30 days, where the name brand last almost a year. Just wondering because you said you are saving your compound in case of an emergency, but you might want to use the rest of your compound first. Just a suggestion.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thanks for the advice! It lasts longer than a month but I can’t remember how long. I’ll look into it

[@shopece8807]

Some pharmacies extended their BUD's.

[@DMV_0202]

Glad your videos popped up in my feed. I took advantage of your code to join on Sunday, had my appointment on Wednesday, 6 insurance denials came in between Thursday and Friday and my compounded Semaglutide will be here tomorrow by noon. I have about 40lbs to lose. Excited to start and get this weight off! Question… you mentioned that your water bottle is from Target. Which one is it? Congratulations on onderland.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

So glad you are able to get your medication through Fridays ! Wishing you the best of luck on your journey 💕 … the cup I the Embark Brand at Target

[@cvH-Hvc]

Thanks for sharing your story

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

My pleasure

[@wisecoaching4515]

Thanks for sharing the updates on what Fridays offers especially comprehensive services w no additional fees!!! What insurance do you have that its covered? I'm looking to change insurance to get it covered and need suggestions? I'm currently w BCBS.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

You are welcome! And I have Aetna through my job

[@tiasway]

So they're not really taking any loss when it comes to the money being that they're charging the same price across the board for whatever dose you're taking

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

It probably ends up being the same on their end but it’s beneficial for those on the higher doses and easier to manage

[@nerdincubator]

With your insurance, did they reject Zepbound because it wasn’t on the formulary or because they just didn’t think you qualified for it, but it was a drug offered on the formulary?

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

I honestly have no idea 🤣🫠 Fridays handled everything. But I don’t know if I was ever rejected or if they just needed more information but I know I was rejected for Mounjaro because I am not diabetic

[@tloren84]

@@keepingupwithkeisha that’s what happened to me the code my dr was sending over wasn’t working for ozempic not sure why but she changed it to wegovy and I had no issue I wonder why that happens

[@Becoming.Bianca]

@@nerdincubator anyone who has insurance that covers Wegovy or Zepbound is so blessed. One week mine said in their app i could get Wegovy then the next week it disappeared

[@tanyawhitaker2866]

I sent you an email with pics that you can share to encourage your other followers!!! Also let your followers know that if they are Veterans, they can get Mounjaro at their VA Hospital...check into it!!! US ARMY Veteran

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

I got it! Thanks sis 💕

[@pamelamason3781]

I need more info on VA Mounjaro please

[@rawminimalist9043]

​@@pamelamason3781 I think we would have to do the move program first, I think you get it through the move program.

[@pamelamason3781]

@@rawminimalist9043ok thanks

[@MoxieRoxy3]

I just went onto Fridays yesterday and they are still charging the $99 fee. I’m confused.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Hi! Are you looking at name brand or compound?

[@MoxieRoxy3]

@@keepingupwithkeisha I just saw my mistake. So it’s for compounding meditation only that you will not be charged a fee. I see now.

[@Becoming.Bianca]

Love that shirt 🎶 purple rain purple rain 🎶

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Thank you!! It’s actually from the men’s section at Walmart 😱

[@Becoming.Bianca]

@@keepingupwithkeisha they have the best ones. I got a Nascar one from there once because it matched my Nike 270s 😂 the 3XLs make good sleep shirts too

[@nawlinzz1]

Their website is still saying $99 a month on top of the drug cost. Am I missing something??

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

That is the cost if you are only interested in Namebrand through your insurance

[@dazt66]

That’s really expensive, in the UK for the 15 mg it’s £260

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

I have heard it’s cheaper in the UK, unfortunately it’s a big business over here so that’s why it costs more. And there is more of a need here too

[@moniqueraper5028]

That's really good my copay is 7.00

[@moniqueraper5028]

7 dollars

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Wow! That’s amazing

[@lesliea.3829]

Strive is $350 for all doses of Mounjaro. Strive has never had membership fees.

[@keepingupwithkeisha]

Cool

[@shopece8807]

BRANDED Mounjaro or for compounded Tirzepatide?

[@josjo188]

@@shopece8807 no telehealth will prescribe mounjaro at same prices for all doses because that is the branded med. Cost for branded will depend on your insurance plan, copay, savings card etd. When a telehealth charges same prices for all doses, It would be for compounded tirzepatide which is the same active ingredient in mounjaro.
