Health Journey Update – June 2025

Just a quick update on my health journey—I’m officially down over 40 pounds since starting Tremfya and Zepbound! I lost about 10 lbs even before beginning the weight-loss shots, and the rest—around 30 lbs—has come since starting them. ✨

Some days are easier than others, of course, but the progress is consistent. What’s wild is that weight loss wasn’t even my main goal when I started. I had reached a point where my autoimmune flares, inflammation, fatigue, and chronic pain were making everyday life harder than it needed to be. My body was screaming for help, and I finally decided to listen.

It wasn’t until Christmas 2024, standing in my mother’s living room looking through photos of myself, that it truly hit me. I remember crying—tears of shock, grief, and clarity. It was the first time in a long while that I really saw myself, beyond the masking, the distractions, the autopilot. That was the moment that broke me open and sparked a fire within me to fight for myself again.

In January, I began my journey with Tremfya, primarily to get my autoimmune symptoms under control. The fact that I lost 10 pounds just from managing inflammation and shifting my routines was empowering—and unexpected. Then in March, I added Zepbound, and that’s when the real momentum kicked in.

I’m currently averaging about 2.5 pounds a week, give or take. My target weight is somewhere between 185–175, and while I’m still figuring out exactly what feels best for me, I’m thrilled by the steady progress and the life coming back into my bones.

But here’s the truth:
👉 This isn’t just about numbers on a scale.
👉 It’s about feeling alive again.
👉 It’s about less pain, more movement, clearer thinking, and deeper joy.

For the first time in years, I’m not just surviving—I’m healing. My joints ache a little less. My fatigue isn’t as soul-sucking. My clothes fit differently, and so does my mindset. My body is becoming a place I can exist in again, not just tolerate.

And let’s be honest, none of this is linear. There are hard days, flare-ups, setbacks, and mental spirals. But now, I have more tools. More hope. More wins to remind me that change is possible, even when it feels impossibly slow.

So wherever you are in your journey—health, healing, self-love, whatever your mountain is—I see you. I’m walking my path, and maybe in some ways, we’re walking together.

Here’s to reclaiming our lives, one mindful, messy, miraculous step at a time.

Let’s go out there and Get Shit Done. 💪🔥

Much love and many blessings,
