I knew my health was declining. My blood pressure was consistently in the 170s/140s, doctors had quadrupled my prescription medication and I was dizzy, and lightheaded. I overheated and wore down so quickly when doing any physical activity. It was so hard to keep up with my daughter and be there for her. I was depressed, and didn’t know where to begin, but I knew I had to get the extra weight off. I found Emerge from a referral code on TikTok and I took a leap.

On September 11th I started my first round of tirzepatide weighing 264.2 pounds and wearing a size 3XL. I began tracking my calories and loading my diet with high volumes of lean protein, whole foods like vegetables and fruit, and drinking plenty of water.

Now, seven months later I’ve lost 82 pounds, and wear a size L top and M pants. I’m enjoying life with my family again and my blood pressure is in a normal healthy range. I’m still amazed everyday with how my body and health are improving.
