Live well.
For most of my adult life, I was either gaining weight or trying to lose it.
I spent about 16 years over 250 pounds. I lost 70 pounds in 2020 through an approach I would not choose again, then perimenopause brought another 45-pound gain. The sugar cravings, binge eating, food noise, inflammation, anxiety, brain fog, and exhaustion made me feel like I had lost myself.
I had heard about peptides, but I assumed they were a shortcut. A trusted holistic practitioner shared her experience and opened my mind. That conversation changed the direction of my health and eventually helped me build a more sustainable way forward.
I did not need more willpower. I needed a different kind of support.
My results
I began my journey with Tirzepatide, a GLP-1/GIP peptide. I lost 45 pounds, but the scale is only one part of the story. My food noise and cravings quieted. I could prioritize protein and whole foods. My inflammation eased, which helped my body feel so much better, my brain fog lifted, and I found hope that lasting health could actually feel possible.
I also suspect I may have lipedema, although I have not been formally diagnosed. For years, my legs felt heavy and remained disproportionately resistant to change. Alongside clinician guided treatment, strength training, nourishing food, movement, and my vibration plate, I have noticed less overall inflammation and a dramatic difference in how my legs look and feel.
For the first time in my life, I am not swinging between gaining and losing. I have maintained my weight for more than two years while continuing to build muscle and improve my body composition.
This goes far beyond weight loss. I feel like my body is healing from the inside out.
Phillip began his own clinician guided peptide journey with microdosed Tirzepatide and BPC-157/TB-500. During that time, his nagging calf issue improved and he was able to return to running, one of his greatest passions.
My routine and experience
This is my personal experience, not a prescription for anyone else. I share it so you can understand what has supported my journey, then explore your own goals with a licensed provider.
GLP-1/GIP + B12
Tirzepatide changed my relationship with food. The cravings and food noise quieted, and for the first time I had the mental space to choose protein and whole foods because they served my body, not because I was fighting another diet.
Body composition + sleep
I have completed two cycles of Sermorelin. I believe it helped me lose the final 10 pounds of fat, improve my body composition, and experience some of the best sleep I have had in years.
Skin + antioxidant support
Glutathione is one of my nonnegotiables. When I use it consistently, my skin looks clearer, brighter, and more glowing. Paired with NAD+, it is one of my favorite combinations for looking and feeling vibrant.
Energy + vitality
NAD+ has become a consistent part of my routine because I notice the difference in my energy. I feel more vibrant and more like myself when it is part of my clinician guided plan.
KPV + GHK-Cu + BPC-157
KLOW is new for me, so I am still paying attention to how I respond. I am especially interested in its potential support for inflammation, my hair, skin and nails, and the knees that have carried me through years of weight changes.
Focus + mental clarity
I am exploring Semax for the brain fog and loss of sharpness I have felt in perimenopause. I have not noticed a dramatic change yet, and I think it is important to be honest about what I am still evaluating.
Hormone support
I am still perimenopausal and working with my providers to balance my hormones. I do not consider myself fully optimized yet, but I am encouraged by the progress and committed to continuing the process.
Muscle + brain health
Creatine is a daily foundation for me. I use it to support strength, muscle, and brain health as I continue building a body that feels capable and resilient in midlife.
Why EllieMD
My health is too personal for a mystery vial or a one-size-fits-all checkout. I chose EllieMD because the process includes a health assessment, an independent medical provider’s review, and pharmacy fulfillment if treatment is prescribed.
A licensed provider reviews your health history and determines whether a program is appropriate for you. Not everyone qualifies.
When a prescription is ordered, EllieMD works with state-licensed partner pharmacies to fulfill it. That is the sourcing path I want to know about before I begin.
I value having a place to ask questions, keep learning, and connect with women who understand this season of life.
