Where do I upload passport?

Hi! The TLS website is a bit rubbish on the uploading of documents, on my check list say that I need the copy of each page of my passport but under categories I can't find where that is, does anyone know where i have to do that? Or it's a case that I need to bring it physically and also the colour copies printed?

I'm getting the citizenship through ILR.

Question on application

Hi, I'm going through my application and they asked for all past immigration applications I've done with ref number. I could fine all but 1 which is from my student visa, I really can't find the email on that.

Should I avoid mentioning it if I don't have the ref number or should I leave it empty?

Question for people that understands NHS and GPs

Hi! So this is more a question on UK people that have more experience on the whole health system than me. I've gone to my GP for different health stuff and I understand there is a price for medication they prescribe but could a GP prescribe a medication and the patient cover the full cost?

So from where I'm from public hospitals would have their own pharmacies and if they have the medication it would be free but if they don't you can use that same prescription and go to any private pharmacy and get it sorted, obviously full price.

I ask because my understanding is when some people enter maintenance or don't fit all the requirements to get mj prescribed sometimes is because the online pharmacies have little knowledge on this person medical history, but could it be possible to go through your normal GP and them to prescribe MJ without going to the faff of meeting NHS criteria since the NHS wouldn't pay for it?

My question also comes because (although I have checked the online info on monj.co.uk in different pharmacies and the maintenance ones) in cases where the patient is on a healthy weight but MJ helped on insulin resistance or other stuff if they get cut off sounds like a bad idea and technically the only thing they need is a prescription.

Note: I'm not in maintenance haha far from it but i want to understand how the whole NHS works and the limitations of an NHS prescription.

I was expecting more drama going up

Ok so 2.5mg worked for me and I sticked for longer on it but the last weeks the need for sweets was strong so I went to 5mg this week. I was not planning to go fully 5mg but it was late and I didn't want to go with the faff of counting clicks haha so I just jumped into 5mg, I was ready for more drama but felt the same. No new symptoms, no new GI stuff, i was even hungry for breakfast as normal today just not keen on sweets 😅

Brain tricking itself

So my journey has been ok, first weeks a bunch of weight now a more steady pace and sometimes it crosses my mind "I could do this without medication" but then, a day or two before I have to take my dose I feel that again, that ridiculous need of having something when I already ate enough and it hits me, I've tried without medication before 😅 many years, many attempts and this is the only thing that seems to work.

It's quite early still but sometimes I think my brain forgets that this control is not coming from it, its coming from the medication haha

I've been using The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion on my face and neck and I absolutely love the improvement and how soft my skin has become, I'm wondering if anyone knows of any body retinoids that are as good for body. I already moisturise daily and my skin is not dry but I hope the retinoids could help some areas where my skin is not looking as great.

I'm aware technically I could use the same on the body but I guess there might be better size products. I've also seen some rollers but I would like to know if people has good reviews on them.

Thanks in advance ☺️

I've seen lately a lot of news and media coverage on how MJ and all GLP drugs are a big no no with some saying is not a fix and others saying it's the lazy way out. It has become a witch hunt if someone says they took it and I feel like if I admit about taking it the sea of criticism and "worrying" would just be too much.

I see the constant "but you lose all your muscle and bones" but I have my data to back me up:

-First image is me trying to get my weight in control just with diet and exercise, me already working out 6-7 times a week, weights and cardio in it. Eating around 1500 calories a day.

-Second image is me on mounjaro, look at that muscle gain, training has been the same, type of food the same just less cravings and not actually feeling like I need something sweet. Also I would like to add I don't feel like shit for eating less and have portion control, before I would feel like shit after two or three weeks of big cut on calories.

When is this witch hunt gonna end? The media keeps saying that mj is the thing that kills your health but any extreme weight loss would do that for you, I've seen someone go to just bones following a doctor's diet and being so weak to even walk.

If any of you have been told "oh you should just move more" I am living proof that doesn't work for everyone.

Ok done haha that's my rant for this week 🤣
