I have to say, I’ve never felt better 🙌. For the first time in what feels like forever, food isn’t taking up space in my brain 24/7. I don’t wake up planning dinner before my feet even hit the floor đŸœïž. I don’t obsess over lunch while I’m still sipping my morning coffee ☕. Food is no longer the main character in my day—and honestly, that’s such a relief 😌.

Now, let me be clear—this journey hasn’t been perfect. There are still days when food just grosses me out đŸ€ą, and I feel like I could get sick đŸ€·â€â™€ïž. But it passes. And for me, the benefits have outweighed the tough moments.

I always dreamed of being that “skinny mom”—not for vanity, but because I just wanted to feel good in my body đŸ’Ș. For so long, it wasn’t about what I was eating, it was about how my body responded. Or didn’t. I tried Weight Watchers, intermittent fasting, and every “eat clean” plan under the sun đŸ„Š. I gave it my all, and still the scale wouldn’t budge ⚖.

Worse, the doctors didn’t believe me. They’d look at me like, “What are you really eating?” 😒 as if I wasn’t telling the truth. That kind of judgment sticks with you. It makes you question yourself. But I wasn’t lying—my body just wouldn’t respond.

These days, I don’t eat much differently than I did before Ozempic. But now, I actually see results 👀. And the truth is, for some of us—especially during perimenopause and menopause—when hormones go haywire and hunger creeps in for no reason, we need more help than just “eating right and exercising” 🔄.

This may not be the answer for everyone. But it worked for me. And if you’re struggling and feel like no one believes you, I see you đŸ«¶. Your struggle is real. And sometimes, doing what’s right for your body means tuning out the noise and choosing what brings you peace đŸ§˜â€â™€ïž.

Anyone else trying Ozempic or something similar? How’s your journey going? Let’s talk about it 👇💬
