How I lost 125 lb on Wegovy then Zepbound
“It wasn’t peaches and cream — and the second chapter still counted.”
Twaun starts near 394 lb with scary blood pressure and family heart history on her mind. If you’re carrying health fear and a long history of diets that didn’t stick, her path — Wegovy, then a slower Zepbound chapter — may help you see that switches and stall weeks can still be part of progress.

Phase
Considering
She was tired of obesity and hypertension. A coworker on Mounjaro planted the idea; appointments got cancelled and rescheduled in her head before she followed through. Insurance covering Wegovy fully made starting feel possible in her telling.
Phase
Starting
Her provider suggested a weekend start for side effects; she began midweek anyway and kept notes. Walking and gym cycles before meds hadn’t stuck — medication became the tool that helped her stay in the fight.
Phase
Stalls on Wegovy
Wegovy wasn’t a straight line. She finished that chapter around −95 lb, with weeks that felt frustrating mixed in. That honesty is useful if highlight reels make you think every week should drop.
Phase
Zepbound second chapter
From December 2024 she moved to Zepbound and kept losing — roughly another 30 lb toward about 125 lb total by the time she filmed. Walks and gym were a learning curve. She talks about kindness to yourself and showing up for community (her Thursday lives).
