Total Weight Loss: 51 lbs
I’ve always been considered a curvy girl, even when I was much younger. However, I recall hating the way my body looked even at the young age of 6. In high school, I cried when I was no longer a size 0 pants because it meant I was fat (so I thought). Years of bullying had led me to view my body negatively.
After joining the military, I injured my knee beyond repair while in Korea and that limited my physical abilities. Shortly after, I had my one and only child. The toll that the military and giving birth had on my body was irreversible it seemed. I even went so far as to get a “mommy makeover” and have my stomach fat essentially cut off of me.
After all of that, I still weighed 185 lbs. At 5’ tall, that categorized me as obese. I tried nutritionists, diet journals, working out, counting calories, phentermine, Wellbutrin, all to try and lose just a little weight. Nothing seemed to work. I would never drop below 180 lbs.
I reached out to Debbie after she was referred to me, cautiously optimistic about her being able to help me. Debbie was more that understanding and able to answer any and all questions I had. She reassured me that it was my choice, my body, that I had control. So, I started trizepitide injections once a week.
My original goal weight, was 140 lbs. In six months, I lost 51 lbs and am currently sitting at 134 lbs. Debbie has been there every step of the way to answer any questions or concerns I’ve had. She’s given me the ability to love the body I’m in, through all these stages. Now, I am healthier for my son and healthier for myself, and that’s something I could never thank her enough for.
