Down 60 lbs! My Story!

Hi everyone! Here’s my weight loss story:

Okay, the pic on the left? That’s from like, two years ago. It's just the pic of me I hate the most 😂 I actually weighed a smidge less *then* than when I started my GLP-1 journey.

I was never really a big person. I was always into sports, played volleyball in high school, even did some bodybuilding and personal training. Even joined the military!

After my first kiddo, I just. Could. Not. Lose the baby weight. Tried everything! Keto worked for a bit, but it wasn’t something I could stick with. Then I tried sema, and I went from like, 210 (that awful pic!) to around 175. Doc said I might be insulin resistant, so maybe that's why the meds worked so well?

Then BAM! Pregnant again with baby #2. That’s when I found tirz.

I started at 220lbs. For the first three months, nothing really happened. And then the weight started to melt off. I try to work out a few times a week and I drink a lot of water. Now, eight months down the road, I’m only about 20 lbs from my goal weight! I feel amazing, healthy, and I don’t cringe when someone takes a picture of me. I’m finally getting my life back! 💕

I'm on TikTok if you wanna follow along! @KatyDoesAlot

SW: 220
CW: 160

You look awesome! (You really do, even in the first pic - cute dress!). Did you have any procedures done to deal with extra skin?
 
Congrats!! You rock Katy! That's a great goal reached! And only 20 more pounds to go! You got this!! You've made so much progress, and you're still young! Are you on the highest dose? I am, and I've dropped a size, about 21 lbs. now in a 16 and it feels great!! Congrats again! You deserve it! 🩷🩷
 
I saw someone else post about this and it reminded me of your post!

It's great that you found something that works! Sometimes these meds can mask other issues though, so always listen to your body! One person posted about how they were losing weight super fast but it turned out they had cancer. The medication hid some of the symptoms, like constipation and fatigue. Just a reminder to stay vigilant!

Oh wow, that's scary! Thanks for the heads-up. I'll definitely keep an eye out for anything weird.
 
I'm so happy for you. I started at 192 and now I'm 157 - that feels like FOREVER ago, lol! I am 5'7 and I feel great. It's so nice to finally have something that works!
