I lost 4lbs in a week after following the ‘oatzempic’ diet drink - I was sick, sad & spotty

After digging out my denim jacket for spring, I was both horrified and embarrassed when I couldn’t do up the buttons.
I have spent the last 12 months in denial that I am far heavier than l’d like to be.
A winter of baggy jumpers and elasticated leggings has concealed the fact that at 11st 6lbs, I am now half a stone heavier than I was when I was full term with each of my sons.
That’s right, I weigh more now than when I had an 8lbs 5oz human growing inside me.
I’m not really one for fad diets. I prefer real food over shakes and I have always been active.
In fact, pre-Covid I was a regular at the gym, doing three or four spin classes a week.
But overeating and boozing were bad habits that continued post-lockdown and I can no longer use the pandemic as an excuse for my weight woes.
With a sunshine holiday just around the corner, I wasn’t prepared to buy a whole new wardrobe, let alone fork out for a replacement denim jacket - I just had to lose weight.
“I’ve managed it before,” I told myself. It is true, at my heaviest I weighed 12st 8lbs and was a size 14, which at 5ft 7in, is almost 2st over what I would like to be.
After three long months of upping my exercise and lowering my calorie intake, I managed to lose an impressive 16lbs.

Will you be giving this drink a try?

[@reframeservices]

Is it just me to find people progressively getting dumber, or have we always been this way?

[@sippinlean277]

Please turn to Jesus he loves you so much and wants a relationship with you. he died, took it all on himself because he loves YOU.

[@gingerroot8906]

No. I appreciate her giving it.a go but it doesn't seem to be a good diet. I'll go sugar-free, wheat-free and fast 16-18 hours a day instead. Even without a period of more than 12 hours between supper and breakfast I will lose weight with no added sugar and no bread, pasta, crackers, etc. Thanks, anyway.

I bet you are the life of the party.

[@knockoutorion5778]

Is that all you eat?

[@girlhh3908]

Do you drink on empty stomach? Is this a meal replacement?

[@desireereyes9043]

The spots is effect of cleansing ur body.

[@damarismartinez8824]

Maybe don’t do it at all..? This diet is deficient in several nutrients: protein, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals. Please educate your self on balanced eating 🙏

[@marcillawarren8099]

That’s not the only thing you consume in a day, it just helps you eat less. You can still get nutrients from food, so I will be doing it. I chose seeded oatmeal

Durian Rider eats sugar to lose weight. He eats fat to gain weight. Makes sense to me.
