Medications

semaglutidetirzepatideorforglipronmetforminbupropion

Pros

✓States explicitly that it only prescribes FDA-approved medications, so nothing here is compounded
✓The weight loss programme is $79/month, with general membership from $29/month (checked July 28, 2026)
✓It works with your insurance to find the lowest-cost medication rather than defaulting to cash-pay
✓Offers a genuine range of GLP-1 options including semaglutide, tirzepatide and the newer oral orforglipron (Foundayo), plus metformin and bupropion where appropriate
✓24/7 messaging with your provider and appointment-free online visits
✓You keep the same dedicated provider throughout rather than seeing whoever is available
✓Medications ship free if prescribed
✓Named, board-certified medical team with specialised training in women's health

Cons

✗The $79/month programme fee is separate from medication cost, so your total depends on what insurance covers
✗Women's health is the explicit focus, so it is not the right fit for men
✗General membership at $29/month and the $79 weight loss programme are different things - check which you are signing up for
✗No published phone number; contact runs through the platform
✗GLP-1 medications are not suitable for anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, or during pregnancy

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓The membership price is stated plainly and repeatedly: $89/month, with medical visits, daily monitoring, coaching and member content included (checked July 27, 2026)
✓Every mention of that price carries the qualifier 'Does not include the cost of medication' - the most consistent disclosure of a membership-versus-medication split we have seen on any site here
✓Providers navigate insurance on your behalf to get brand-name GLP-1s covered, with compounded medication offered as a fallback if you have no coverage
✓The programme fee is HSA/FSA eligible
✓Nutritional coaching and meal planning are part of the membership rather than paid add-ons
✓A cancellation policy is published alongside the terms and privacy documents
✓24/7 support with fully online consultations

Cons

✗Two different first-month discounts appear on the same page: a banner offering '50% off First month membership with code JRNY50' and body copy repeatedly stating 'First month deal: 25% off'
✗The page uses a quotation from Oprah Winfrey about weight-loss prescriptions as a testimonial. The quote is about GLP-1 medication generally, not about JRNYS, and we found no evidence of any association between her and this company - placing it on the pricing page implies an endorsement that does not appear to exist
✗The $89 membership is the smaller half of the bill. Medication is extra and its cost is never quantified anywhere on the site, so your real monthly outlay is unknowable before signing up
✗Trustpilot sits at 3.3 out of 5 from 73 reviews, the weakest score among membership-model providers we have reviewed
✗Whether you get brand-name or compounded medication depends on your insurance, so two customers paying the same $89 may receive quite different products
✗No published customer phone number or support hours
✗No BBB profile or complaint record to check
✗A patient testimonial quantifies a specific result ('Audrey lost 53lbs. with JRNYS') without the context that individual results vary widely
