A mother-of-one has revealed how she lost almost 100lbs—seven stone—in less than a year, by sticking to a simple exercise and diet plan.
Millions of people now rely on weight loss jabs such as Mounjaro and Wegovy to help them slim down—yet Lucy Weller credits walking 10,000 steps a day and regular weight training sessions with helping her reach her goal.
This was coupled with a calorie-controlled diet, high in protein and fibre.
In a video shared to TikTok via her page, @lucy52915, which has racked up more than 750,000 views, she revealed pictures of her gradually shedding the pounds.
After posting the video, she received over a thousand comments from other social media users amazed by her final transformation.
One commentator said: 'Wow! You look unrecognisable, well done. It's so lovely to see it's been done in a healthy way and not on Mounjaro.'
Meanwhile another commented: 'You can tell this is natural too. No Mounjaro and excuses here. Well done for creating new habits and not cheating. This will set you up for life.
A third user added: 'Incredible. You look like a different person. Great work.'
Ms Weller revealed in comment on the viral post that she wasn't able to use jabs—having recently given birth.
'Still breastfeeding my child so can't do Mounjaro anyway, but I have health anxiety so would never do it,' she wrote.
Instead she committed to weight training four times a week, with two sessions for glutes—the buttock muscles—one for the full body, and one for the upper body.
The weight training sessions she praised for her impressive transformation were with @TrainwithAldine, whom she called 'the best coach there ever is'.
In a comment replying, the coach said: 'So proud of you!! Hard work and sticking to the planxxx.'
While the mother lost the weight naturally, there are a growing number of people turning to weight loss jabs.
Last month, GPs in the UK were allowed to prescribe the drugs, collectively known as GLP-1s, for the first time in a bid to tackle the nation's obesity crisis.
An estimated 1.5 million people are now using weight loss jabs through the NHS or private clinics, while millions more are eligible.
But some experts have raised concerns over potential risks. Recent data revealed that more than 100 deaths in Britain have been linked to slimming injections so far.
At least ten patients are confirmed to have died from pancreatitis—a life-threatening inflammation of the pancreas—after taking the jabs.
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has since launched an investigation into whether people with certain genes may be more vulnerable to the condition.
It also follows recent reports of terrifying mental health side effects after women took the weight loss jab Mounjaro.
Some described sudden panic attacks, crippling anxiety and a sensation of 'tugging in the brain' after starting the drug.
Other reported symptoms included insomnia, tremors, shortness of breath and tinnitus.
Although these are not currently listed as official side effects for any of the three major jabs in the UK, an online support group for users suffering such symptoms has attracted more than 2,800 members.
Three members—speaking anonymously to The Times—described the onset of debilitating anxiety, sleeplessness and panic attacks after starting Mounjaro.
At the time, the manufacturers of Mounjaro, Eli Lilly, and of both Ozempic and Wegovy, Novo Nordisk told The Times patient safety was their top priority.
'We take any reports about patient safety seriously and actively monitor, evaluate and report safety information for all our medicines,' said Eli Lilly.
With Novo Nordisk adding it welcomes: 'Independent research investigating the safety, efficacy and clinical utility of our products.'
