🌟I’m so freaking proud of my progress! With the help of a GLP-1 & nutrition I lost 125lbs of regain last year in 11 months.

😴I started the journey working out, but admittedly between low calories and long work days, I was pretty exhausted.

🤗So I focused on nutrition, hydration, vitamins and sleep. Can’t wait to see what my transformation will look like once I get back into a workout routine!

🌟I’m most proud of the 2024, 285lbs “before” version of me! She put in a lot of work, and got really brave. Aug. 2024, I went paddle boarding for the first time.

❤️‍🩹I was working so hard to drop the regain weight I’d experienced after getting sober, going through IVF and struggling with depression.

😩I kept losing and regaining the same 20-30lbs. And so in Dec. 2024, when I hit 300lbs *again*, I finally asked for help from my doctor and she put me on an oral medication to try and support my weight loss.

💉And then in Jan. 2025, I started Wegovy (GLP-1). 😍That 2024 Victoria would be so happy to see me now, and know that we didn’t give up!💖

🤩 Have questions about GLP-1’s, regain, or anything else? Feel free to ask me anything. 🥰

💖✨🦄What if we took up all the space we need? Asked for what we wanted. Said No to what no longer aligned with us. And didn’t apologize for it? 🦄✨💖

📈📉Progress is not linear. ⚖️I’ve been 335lbs, 185lbs, 300lbs and currently sitting at 175lbs. For the second time in my adult life. Read to the end to see how I lost 100+ lbs twice!!⬇️

🛤️Each part of this journey has taught me something. I’ve struggled with my weight since 2006, so 20 years. But I’ve had issues with body dysmorphia for probably 30 years.

📚I remember being in middle school, 6’2” and realizing much “bigger” I was than all the other girls (and most of the boys for that matter). It began a lifelong battle with myself of trying not to “take up too much space.”

👸🏼Well I’m not that girl anymore, and I proudly take up as much space as I need now. I have learned that obesity is a disease that I will need to treat for the rest of my life, and there’s no “end point” or “finish line” like we used to say after bariatric surgery.

🙋🏼‍♀️If you’re new here, I’m Victoria, and I had bariatric surgery in 2012 and lost 150lbs in 6 months. I worked in the bariatric field for almost 10 years and I’m a fierce advocate for obesity education, access to care and reducing obesity bias. I experienced weight reoccurrence in 2022 and regained 125lbs. And most recently, with the help of Wegovy, I’ve lost that 125lbs again. So I’ve lost over 100lbs 2xs in my life, and will continue to fight this chronic disease. I will stay on a glp-1 for maintenance of my obesity, while continuing to live the healthiest life I can. And if you’re considering any type of treatment for obesity, I hope you’ll feel supported here! 🤗

🗓️What part of your health journey are you in? I’m so happy you’re here!!

🩱Sept. ‘22 - 👙Jan. ‘26 ☀️🌊125lbs lost last year and I still don’t recognize myself in photos. But it sure felt great to wear the bikini on the beach last week and feel good in my own skin. 💖 Forever grateful for the life changing bariatric surgery and GLP-1 obesity treatments I’ve had access to. 🙌🏻

🥳13 Year Surgaversary🥳 This month I celebrate the life changing decision to have bariatric surgery, back in 2012, in El Paso, TX at William Beaumont Army Hospital with Dr. Schriver. I lost 150lbs in 6 months, after having a VSG. At the time I had no idea the way this one decision would shape my life. But now, I can’t imagine my life not as a bariatric patient, fighting obesity, alongside my community. I onboarded a GLP-1 this year to help me lose 115lbs of regain, and I’m so glad I did. After getting sober in 2021, IVF and surgery in 2022 and a battle with depression, the disease was winning. This is a lifelong, chronic disease and it requires TREATMENT. Grateful for all the fellow patients that I’ve met along the way, the medical professionals that have worked tirelessly to support our community and the scientists that continue to bring new research to the community. It’s been a great 13 years, can’t wait to see what’s next!! 🥳🌟

💛100+lbs weightloss 2xs with the help of a GLP1 and 12.5yrs postop from bariatric surgery.💛 Proof that it’s never too late to try again! 💛

💕A lot can happen in 6 years! (But since I was asked- I’ve had ZERO work done to my face 😆- just a handful of Botox appts💉)

🌟2020-Eloped during COVID with the love of my life.

🌟2021- Hit rock bottom with my mental health and alcohol addiction & went into treatment.

🌟2022- Underwent IVF, husband joined the Navy, moved two times and regained 100lbs.

🌟2023- Started trying to get to the root of the weight regain, spent a year on myself, and rebuilt a support system.

🌟2024- Started a new business, tried to lose the weight regain on my own but struggled w/back injuries and set backs.

🌟2025- Onboarded an obesity doctor, added GLP1 treatment for my obesity, lost weight without shame or guilt and loved myself the whole way through. 95lbs⬇️

🌟Change takes time. And it’ll never be the perfect time to start. So I took the first step. And then continued, one step at a time after that. This isn’t a race, and there’s finish line. This is your ONE big beautiful life- invest in yourself!!!🌟✨🌟

🌟Have questions? Ask me anything! ⬇️

🔄2022 Regain (300lbs) ->2025 Now (205lbs)

🔄2012 Day of WLS (310lbs) -> 2019 Lowest Weight (180lbs)

🌀Sometimes with obesity, it can feel like a wash, rinse, repeat cycle. But I just want to remind you- you never start from scratch. You start again from experience!

🌀And what you can’t see in that pic from 2019 at my lowest weight, was me struggling worse than I’d ever struggled before. Drinking to cope with anxiety & depression, not eating and miserable.

🔆Today I have created a life I LOVE, and don’t need a vacation from. My life feels aligned with my priorities and there’s balance.

🔆Ask yourself if you’re creating a life, routine and habits you ACTUALLY want to keep. Because if not, it won’t be sustainable. And that’s the secret- a sustainable, balanced, healthy life is one you don’t need to escape from. 🩵
