Meet Linda, a retired nurse from Doncaster. After a lifetime spent caring for others, she decided it was finally time to prioritise her own health.
We caught up with Linda who lost an incredible 24kg (55lbs — and counting!) on Voy. After a successful start on Mounjaro, she recently made the switch to Wegovy, and found it just as effective and a seamless part of her weight loss journey.
Switching medications was a big decision
I’ll be honest, I was nervous about switching. I’d made such good progress on Mounjaro, and part of me worried I’d lose momentum or that the new medication wouldn’t work the same.
But with prices rising, I knew I needed something more sustainable for the long term. Wegovy was more affordable, and since I’d had such great support from Voy already, I felt reassured that I wouldn’t be doing it alone.
A smooth transition with ongoing results
To my surprise, the switch was seamless. The first week felt no different physically — no side effects, no energy dips, just business as usual.
Wegovy does feel slightly different to Mounjaro. It’s gentler, especially in how it manages my appetite. But I still feel full, still in control, and the weight is still coming off, just at a steadier pace.
That slower progress actually helped me reflect on my habits and get more intentional about staying active and eating well. And I’m still moving in the right direction.
The same support, just with a lower pricetag
The best part? Nothing else changed. I still have regular check-ins with my coach, I still use the same app and the communication from Voy has been just as strong. I was kept fully informed, had space to ask questions and felt totally supported throughout the switch.
The lower price has made the programme more sustainable for me long-term, and that peace of mind is priceless.
You’ve got nothing to lose
Looking back now, I’m so glad I made the change. I’m still seeing results, still feeling like myself, but with less financial pressure.
If you’re thinking about switching and feeling uncertain, I’d say: go for it. It might feel like a big leap, but with the right support, it doesn’t have to be. In fact, it could be the best decision you make.
