While Halls said the daily routine of taking the pill did not appeal to her, Kristabelle Jones has reached a similar conclusion.
The Alverstoke resident said she would not swap from the injections unless there was “a real financial benefit”.
Jones has been using the jab for about a year and has lost more than three stone.
“I am really pleased,” she said, although she admitted she still had a little more weight to lose.
She said it was “a big leap of faith” to spend family finances on something for herself, but added she had “no regrets”.
“It was like a miracle to begin with because I just didn’t think about food,” Jones said.
She said her appetite changed and, as a result, her portion sizes became smaller.
“I would eat because I’m happy or I’m sad or I’m stressed. It didn’t have that impact, so you just weren’t that bothered,” she said.
Jones said she expects to take the medication for the “long term”, but would not switch to the “more complicated” tablets unless the price was right.
