I have PCOS… I passed the obese threshold a few years ago. I’ve been overweight for over 20 years. It seems I was always on a diet. But couldn’t lose the weight. My Dr put me on semaglutides in February. Lost about 18lbs so far. It’s more than I have been able to lose in a long time. I’m grateful. But I know the shame you talk about. It’s crazy… I’m the photographer, but hardly in any pictures. I have yet to share this journey. You are amazing and I admire your transparency. ❤

Hey love your videos . I’ve been battling insulin resistant PCOS for 17 years . Infertility and weight gain just out of control . I could fast for days and still gain weight . I started wegovy 3 weeks ago . Already down 11 pounds and got my period without help from medication for the first time in 6 years . This medication is life changing for someone like me. Finally something to improve my health and hopefully the chance to become a mother… I can relate to exactly how you’ve felt about your weight gain and all the psychological effects it has . So you go girl … you look great and are very motivational

Your videos made me start semaglutide. I take my 3rd injection tomorrow (starting 3rd week.) I’m 5’9’’ and I started at 202, I’m at 187 this morning. My reason for semaglutide was I started having issues with portion control, cravings, and the weekends lol. I’ve been working out regularly for a couple years now (weight lifting 3-4 days a week, walking at least 5 days a week) but my only issue is just food. Semaglutide does wonders for cravings and portion control. It’s been a little difficult sometimes making sure I eat 1400 to 1700 cals a day bc of how full you feel when eating, but I’m making it work. My only side effect has been extreme fatigue to where sometimes it’s hard completing my warm up when I’m working out but, I’m barreling through it. No, I don’t look “skinny” I look like I lift weights and work out lol. I’m keeping a high protein diet to keep building muscles and strength while I’m lifting weights. Goal weight…maybe 180 but it depends on how much more muscle I can build so I’m not a skinny thin 180. I want to be a built 180. Hope everyone’s journey goes well. xoxo

Now I'm told I have NAFLD, Non Alcoholic Fatty Live Disease. Since my doctor has told me for years to lose weight and I can't get it off and keep it off she said I don't have a choice now and wrote me a prescription and my drug plan approved me within the week. The first video was especially informative as were reading all the readers comments and experiences. Went to Costco and got a Wegovy starter pack. I don't feel like I'm doing this on my own now and I feel so much more knowledgeable and in control. Thank you. 💕 🤗

There are a lot of parts of your story that is very similar to mine story with the exception of PCOS. My heaviest was around 225 but I stopped looking at the scale so it could've been higher, I don't really know. I been on Wegovy for 2 yrs and I'm down to 165 which is close to my goal of 160 at a height of 5'7". I kept my weight number secret from my husband for YEARS. I went to a new endocrinologist about my weight and thyroid nodules and she put me on ozempic for prediabetes then transitioned to wegovy so insurance would cover it. I had some sagging/drooping in my backside😂 and a little in my face. I started hormone replacement patch for hot flashes and hair loss, then the sagging and other symptoms improved tremendously. Listen to your body and your doctor and keep going, you got this!!!🎉. You will surprise yourself. Oh, also, I tried drinking water and eating good protein and veggies for the constipation. Do some light weight training to help stay toned. Stay blessed my sister❤

I am considering Wygovy, I was prescribed it AND it’s finally become available. Your videos have been the most realistic and informative, but also we are the same size! I’m also 5’7” and broad. I was underweight in my teens but still thought I was “big” because I could never fit into a pants size smaller than size 14. I was literally gaunt and kept trying to lose weight to wear smaller pants. Ended up having to work with a nutritionist to gain weight, and still wore a size 14. lol. So I’m glad you addressed body size and others perception of it. As an adult I’ve struggled with an autoimmune disease and some comorbidity issues with that. When I addressed some unexpected weight gain a year ago with my doc he was really understanding and empathetic, we had checks frequently for a year to go over my diet, exercise, blood work before he finally suggested wygovy. He’s acknowledged how hard I work to stay healthy and at a healthy weight and how I have some preexisting stuff working against me

Congratulations on your progress!!!! I'm on Monjauro and I take the 5mg dose. I've been on since the beginning of the year. My doctor prescribed the medication back in November but I was terrified to take it so I didn't actually start until January or February. My highest weight was 265. I've struggled with my weight all my life. I had Bariatric surgery in 2003 after a total hysterectomy and although I kept my weight off for almost 20 years, having hormonal issues and autoimmune issues, and lymphedema and lipedema, I would swell and gain over 50 lbs so fast without explanation. After they figured out that I wasn't in heart failure after gaining like 90 lbs in less than a year without diet changes, they decided to have me try the shot. It has definitely been God sent. I was 209 when I started. I was 149 at my last appointment at the end of last month. My goal was 135 but at this point I have lost so much fat that I don't think I could bare to be that small. I'm just going to try to maintain from here. We'll see. I do have SEVERELY sagging skin on my arms and legs. My butt deflated. I'm not real happy about that but I'm going to see about my arms. I don't really care about anything else. As my weight settles, maybe my butt will work itself out. LOL and SMH

I am enjoying following you on this journey! I am on shot 3 of the .5mg Wegovy myself and having a bit of success (started ~190 and am 182 now). Listening to you describe how it was before you started sounded SO familiar! There were times that I would be in the middle of a meal and thinking about what I wanted to eat next and it was non stop and did not make any sense. Now I'm 49 and entering menopause and did not realize how the hormone change would affect me! There was a 20 pound gain that seemed to come on overnight and I could NOT get it off no matter what. Seeing the scale slowly tick down and - most important for me - the body fat % finally headed in the right direction are huge motivating factors and keep me going on this crazy adventure. I have noticed lots of burping on this dose too Lol...nothing too bad, not sulfur smelling like some people are reporting, but I definitely feel a sense of relief after it. Like a balloon slowly being deflated. To keep me from being constipated I take psyllium husk powder daily and try to make sure I get LOTS of fiber like 30grams or more, keeps everything moving Ha!

Tatiana, thanks for sharing your weight. You are such an encouragement to me. I have PCOS and have been up and down in weight since I was a teenager. I'm at the highest weight I've ever been and, after watching you, I went to my doctor to see about starting Wegovy. My insurance has hurdles you have to jump before they'll do that, so I started with an oral medication called Contrave on May 27th. You start at a low dose (1 per day) and titrate up weekly (until you are taking 4 per day). I took three days of the two per day dose and had the most violet tremors at night. I felt like I was in a mosh pit with myself! I called the pharmacist and he said to stop taking it. It's disappointing because it was really working on the cravings/constant hunger. So I have a message in to my doctor and am hoping I can try Wegovy next.

Not sure if it was that I was attempting to train my mind that I was full not. No real symptoms except I feel tired a lot more so I need a nap everyday. I am doing my 3rd shot tomorrow on the 0.5 and I find myself hungry more often. I ignore it and take a sip of my water. Kinda feeling discouraged.

Thank you for all these updates. I had the sleeve surgery in 2016 and have packed on weight within the past 2 years. I'm thinking about wegovy or something similar to help kick start weight loss. These videos are super helpful! Please keep sharing your experiences with this drug

I'm about to take my 4th shot of ozempic. I lost 4.8lbs but gained 2lbs back. I'm going to go up in dosage and try to cut my calories even more (currently eating 1900, going to aim for 1600). I haven't had any side effects either, so I hope that the increase won't give me any. Thanks for sharing!

Me. I started 6 weeks ago and I've lost about 10 pounds. But I'm moving and remodling my house so I've been doing a lot of heavy labor. My clothes are nearly falling off. I wish I had taken my measurements at the start. I wish I was seeing bigger losses but I just try to not worry too much about it. At least I'm moving in the right direction.

I started in April and I'm down 21lbs from 214 to 193. It's a process. I try to keep my carbs down to 71 carbs per day. Some weeks have been better than others. Please Don't get discouraged. Pace yourself. Limit salt, sugars, carbs and how late you eat. You got this!

Consider adding a fiber supplement to your water to aid with the constipation. If you are not a kombucha drinker, try it as well. Coffee is a stimulant that can help.

I’ve got Ozempic in my fridge and I’m starting it tomorrow. I’m scared but watching your videos to get me hyped up. I’m also never going to be “small”, I’m 5’11” and the smallest I’ve been as an adult was around 185, which was “skinny” for me. Right now I’d be more than thrilled to get under 200. Wish me luck, I hope I can hack the side effects.

You are gorgeous, I love this video. This video is 100% me, even with the PCOS, the being ashamed and all that. I've never told anyone my weight and I was considering blogging my weight loss journey, but I was like how can I if I don't want to tell my weight? My daughter was like if someone asks just say I am not ready. Funny thing, all of your videos that I have watched, I never noticed you didn't mention your weight and when you did, I felt like you didn't need to, it didn't really matter. I like that you said allow ourselves "grace" we are so hard on ourselves, when to others, it doesn't even matter. You are beautiful no matter what, congratulations!!

Glad I found your channel. Yes Burping! I have it too. But I feel so much better when I do. More so since I started the 2.4 dose. I am trying to figure out if I notice it with certain fiods, relation to when I take dose etc. I will be curious what discussion you have with your doctor when you get to your goal.

You're doing great! I started Wegovy three months ago and have lost 34 lbs. Lost 12 lbs on my own by cutting out carbs before that. I'm on .5ml for two months now. My doctor refused to up the dosage to 1 ml. saying to take it slow even though I stated my appetite has increased. I was not happy but will see if I stop making progress. I'm only 5'2 " and weigh 180 lbs as of today.

I love your posts and following your journey. I’ve been on Semeglutide since mid-March. I can’t believe how much I cannot eat. I’ve only lost 15 pounds and I think the only issue I have is wine after work. It’s just unhealthy and doesn’t process like normal calories. Turns into sugar junk basically. I’m cutting back and know they will be the trick. Thank you for your videos! You’re awesome.

THANK YOU so much for your videos & being so transparent. I'm so glad that I came across your YT channel as I'm getting ready to start my Wegovy injections as soon as the pharmacy gets them in stock. Big thanks to all your pointers on the B12, iv packets, scale, etc. I've ordered everything 😊😊. My Dr. wrote my script for me to do the .25 for 2wks then I start the .5. I'm nervous but so ready as my weight issue started with early menopause so hopefully the injections will work. Thanks again & huge congrats on your weight loss success❤!!
