What was your tipping point that you needed to make a change and start Zepbound?
I think everyone has an ah ha moment that pushed them to start Zepbound-
I’ll go first Im in my mid 50s now but in my 30s I ran half marathons and was in the best shape of my life but I hurt my hip quit running and slowly gained until I had thyroid cancer and gained another 50 lbs - I’m shaped like Mr potato head- skinny arms and legs but a head and gut that kept getting bigger and bigger - I had heard about Zepbound but assumed because of the ads and warnings about thyroid cancer I couldn’t take it - fast forward last summer I had to go to my dermatologist to get a skin cancer cut off my neck which meant I had to lay on my stomach for an hour- that’s was torture- I couldn’t breathe because my gut was so large - I felt like a turtle that was turned upside down - I got off that table and determined never again - talked to my endocrinologist and he said the thyroid cancer was only for medullary not papillary and cleared me - I’m down 50 lbs in 7 months and have 20 to go -
What’s your story?
