My Personal Experience and Thanks!
Today is a momentous day for me. A few months ago, or maybe weeks ago, I mentioned I was on a journey. A weightloss journey. I started back in April 2026 and made a decision to do what is right for ME. With the guidance and support of my wife, my doctor, and a select few, I made the decision to start a GLP-1, a compound of tirzepatide and B-12. I went with an organization called Emerge Weightloss. So, I started on 4/23 at a weight of 398.4. I had actually broke the 400 mark at one point earlier this year and first was ashamed at myself and disappointed even more. After about 6 months of being on this journey, I hit my very first PRIMARY GOAL….. 101.3 total pounds lost!!!!!!! Today I weighed 297.1. 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Now, for all those who always have an opinion and think I didn’t earn it or whatever your thinking is, it isn’t about YOU. It’s about ME!! I have walked countless miles (although I can tally it up), I have documented daily food and calorie intake, and I have made choices. Choices to say yes when I planned for it and even when I didn’t. And choices to say no as well. I cut back on breads, pastas, rice, potatoes and focused on proteins (not just meat, when able). I did doctor visits and lab work to track my important items such as A1C, sugar levels, blood pressure and count, etc. To date, AFTER 30+ years, I have been able to come completely off of my blood pressure medicine and almost completely off of my cholesterol, although my doc said most cardiologists would love for all of their patients to have my numbers. Haha! My next major goal is 270 lbs by end of the year. If not maybe January. I’m cool either way. 💪🏻💪🏻 Now, this is what worked for me. Not just the medicine. Not just the walking. Not just the food choices. And not just doctor visits. It was a combination that fit Jeff. What fits for you could be close and similar or totally different. And I am so happy and thankful for Emerge Weightloss and their support. Their service level from my personal experience is top notch. I have been so impressed by their communication and commitment to my success. I encourage others to check them out. This journey has been amazing and hard. Full of sweat, blisters on the toes, sore feet and back, etc. And mentally exhausting to help retrain my brain to think about food differently. I don’t eat what I don’t need. Period. I don’t feel pressured to eat when I don’t want to. I will say for this journey, it’s been 90% mental and 10% physical. Again, for me. Find what works for you. I say all of this to say….THANK YOU EMERGE WEIGHTLOSS FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE AND CONSISTENTCY!!
