I Did Everything “Right.” And Still Gained the Weight.
CrossFit. Fad diets. Willpower. Nothing worked. Then I started Tirzepatide. I lost 56 pounds, healed my inflammation, and got my life back. Now I’m in my peptide era, and I’m doing it out loud.
My 56-Pound Weight Loss and Peptide Journey Through Perimenopause
The weight started creeping up after I had my daughter at 37.
At first, I thought it was normal, postpartum shifts, hormones, a little extra softness. But it never came off. In fact, it just kept going up. Year after year. A slow, quiet build that eventually felt like a full-body hijacking.
I was running a busy medical spa. Homeschooling my daughter. Trying to be a good wife, a good mom, a good everything. I was constantly stressed, constantly exhausted, and still, somehow, working out like a maniac. CrossFit. High-intensity training. Burning myself into the ground.
And I was starving. ALL. THE. TIME.
I’d restrict, then binge. I’d follow some new plan, lose 10 pounds, and gain back 15. I cycled through every fad diet out there. Keto. Whole30. Intermittent fasting. You name it, I’ve done it.
Nothing worked. Or if it did, it didn’t last.
At 5’2” and 180 pounds, I didn’t feel like myself anymore. I was inflamed, bloated, constantly achy. Perimenopause came in like a wrecking ball, throwing my hormones out of whack, stealing my sleep, wrecking my mood, and making everything feel harder.
And worst of all? I blamed myself.
I thought I just wasn’t disciplined enough. That if I could just get it together—work harder, eat cleaner, try more—I’d finally see results.
Then I found Tirzepitide
Within a year, I lost 56 pounds. The constant hunger disappeared. My energy returned. My joints stopped screaming. I could finally think clearly. I started showing up in my life again—not just surviving it.
Now I’m entering the next phase: my peptide era. I’m building lean muscle, supporting my hormones, and staying strong through perimenopause. And this time, I’m not hiding the process. I’m doing it out loud.
Because if you’ve been where I was, burnt out, overwhelmed, carrying extra weight and shame you don’t deserve, I want you to know:
You are not broken. You’re just overdue for the right approach.
