On the 27th of March, I decided to weigh myself.
I wasn’t quite prepared for the outcome.
I stepped onto the scales and found out I was 17 stone 13lbs,i immediately felt both sad and out of control.
It was that moment that I realised I needed to take some drastic action and sort myself out.
I decided that I would start cutting back on what I ate from that very moment.
I knew that I was going to lose control and need help.
I’d done all different diets over the years,took weight loss pills,had bariactric surgery,took laxatives to try and loose weight,you name it I’d tried it.
It was then that I decided I wanted to give Mounjaro a go.
It was all new to me so I didn’t know what to expect.
I got in touch with Siobhan at Slimming Medics, who scheduled an appointment for me to attend the clinic the following Thursday.
I got weighed and was given my first Mounjaro pen.
The first week I lost 7lb then over the following weeks I was loosing a steady 2lbs.It felt so good to see progress and those numbers going down on the scales.Every time I got down into the next stone bracket it felt amazing.I was so proud of myself for what I was achieving.
From the day I started this weight loss journey I’ve never felt so confident in myself.I wanted to do this, and I wanted to be successful.
And I’ve done it,I’ve smashed it.
I’m not a weight loss failure story,I’m a weight loss success story❤️
I am truly grateful for slimming medics and the support from Siobhan along the way.
I eat 3 meals a day,have a little treat when I feel like it, and don’t go without anything I want,I’m just more sensible now and have a smaller quantity.
I have so much more energy now, and my mobility has improved greatly now I’m not carrying all of the excess weight.
I have lost 6 stone 1lb.
I now weigh 11 stone 11lb. I feel good,I look in the mirror and love the woman that’s staring back at me.
