Vulnerability

🤍 My Story: I have struggled with weight my entire life. It's been a constant up and down. The last ten years have been a constant up though, I had gotten to my heaviest weight of my life, and was pre-diabetic. Doctors checked my thyroid multiple times it came back fine but it was just rapid weight gain they didn't know why.

🤍 How I Felt: I was exhausted, I only did things because I HAD to, I didn't WANT to do anything, my whole body ached all of the time. I wasn't super active with my kids and I hated that the most of all of it 😭 I wanted to have the energy to go out and do things!

🤍 My Takeaways: I heard about Trizepitide and was skeptical because I normally would not take medication in the past unless it was a tylenol or ibuprofen I hated medication, I to some degree still believe birth control contributed to my rapid weight gain. I tried it though because at that point what did I have to lose. I started at my highest weight in May 2024 at 288 pounds now nearing the new year I am down to 230! It's progress and I definitely feel the difference. I have also noticed when you feel better you do better! I actually want to curl my hair everyday for work and look nice, ect. Trizepitide has changed my life, I am finally able to diet and exercise and ACTUALLY lose more than 10 pounds. I wish these medications were affordable and accessible to all who need them. I know there's a lot of stigma around these medications but some people just can not understand another person's situation! The only thing I would change is to have done it sooner! ❤️
