Overview
- Emilly Murray began tirzepatide injections on December 30, 2024, at roughly 16st and a size 24, and now weighs about 9st 2lbs and wears a size six.
- She describes an immediate drop in appetite and says the jabs quieted constant “food noise,” with side effects like constipation and diarrhoea managed through diet changes.
- Before treatment she had reached about 22st and was eating around 5,000 calories a day, though she had already shed more than six stone through a calorie deficit and exercise.
- Having reached a maintenance phase, she plans to taper down and stop the injections and is preparing for excess‑skin removal surgery in Lithuania scheduled for May at about £12,000.
- She says the year of injections cost less than her previous spending on sweets and takeaways and credits the changes with improving her fitness, confidence and day‑to‑day parenting.
