My Weight Loss Journey

For as long as I can remember, my weight has been a struggle. It all started during my pregnancy with my daughter, and after she was born, I worked hard and lost about 40 pounds. But unfortunately, I quickly gained it all back—and then some.

Fast forward a few years, and my weight continued to fluctuate. Two years ago, I reached my highest weight ever—260 pounds. I managed to lose about 40 pounds, but for the past couple of years, I found myself stuck in a frustrating cycle of losing and regaining weight.

A year ago, I decided to seek medical help. My doctor recommended Mounjaro, a GLP-1 medication designed for diabetes but also effective for weight loss. I started taking it, but due to inconsistent habits, I lost and gained the same 10 pounds over and over again. Eventually, I switched doctors, and my new physician was hesitant to prescribe it. I had to wait two months for an appointment, during which time my prescription ran out.

Determined not to let that stop me, I started my weight loss journey on my own. I worked hard and managed to lose 10 pounds before my appointment. When I finally met with my new doctor, she wasn’t sure if my insurance would cover Mounjaro since I’m not diabetic. However, I do have insulin resistance and PCOS, so she submitted the request under those conditions. To my surprise and relief, my insurance approved it without hesitation.

I officially restarted Mounjaro on February 12th, and as of February 26th, I have already lost 10 pounds on it—bringing my total weight loss to 21.4 pounds so far! This time, I am determined. I am committed to making lasting changes, and I know I can do this.

In addition to Mounjaro, I’ve been incorporating CBD and digestive health supplements into my routine. They have made a huge difference in my journey—helping with appetite control, anxiety, overall calmness, and even my patience as a mom. If you’re curious about these supplements, feel free to reach out—I’d love to share more info!

This journey is far from over, and I’m excited to see where it takes me. I hope you’ll follow along and support me as I continue working toward my goals.

Let’s do this together! 💪💖
