A woman in her 50s who’s lost over 7 stone and is still learning how to show up for herself, one small step at a time.

This isn’t about perfection, quick fixes, or pressure.

It’s about progress, kindness, and building a life that feels good to live in.

For years, I felt stuck. Trapped in a cycle of emotional eating, shame, and feeling like real change was for other people. I lived with pain from lymphedema, carrying nearly 20 stone, my weight creeping up each year, whilst nothing I did made a impact. Then I discovered something different and for the first time, I started to believe it wasn’t too late.

I have started taking Mounjaro, a licensed drug to help treat obesity in the UK. I had been thinking about starting this treatment for quite a while and looked into this and other alternatives that are available in the UK.

There is so much misinformation about these drugs online and in the media so I hope I can help by sharing my experiences and provide you all with more information through my blog posts.

If you have any questions please feel free to drop me a message or let me know if there is anything in particular you would like me to discuss.

Please note that I am only documenting my experience, always do your own research and speak to a doctor or pharmacy for medical advice or if you have concerns whilst taking GLP1 medication.

With love, Helen 🩷
