And because I want to not because anyone's making me.
I do want to say that before saying all of this, I'm not a doctor and I'm sharing my journey, but I'm not here to tell anyone what to do. When I posted that video in 2023, I feel like that's when things started kind of going downhill with my health, September 2023, where I told people I wasn't going to share any more about it.
that's when I started feeling it myself it wasn't just like other people around me I've always had you know noise and things from my parents telling me to lose weight just like growing up with that and you know especially as I gained more weight which was frustrating I definitely felt that from like my boyfriend at the time but that was more of what I was I wasn't sure and I felt that from like friends and family like it was like this unsaid thing I think from the start I
In 2020, I gained probably like 80 to 100 pounds to 2023. So that, you know, I'm not looking at it in that way. But everyone else online would let me know about how much weight I gained, which was such a like mind. Can I say a thought? Yeah, you could say anything. Like a mind fog. Yeah. And really confused me. So it was everyone else letting me know that.
But at that same time, I was actually like, I remember like my back went out. I was in bed for like a month. Like I was like if I even like turned a little I would like scream in pain.
I would here and there when I could go to I don't know fashion events or I had friends weddings and things and I would literally bring Dr. Scholl's shoes because I could not stand in my heels and I was wearing like gowns with these shoes because I was in so much pain my knees were going out. I would get glam done and it would be off my face in 20 minutes.
Cause I was like dripping sweat in my apartment off my face. Um, I think there became more, there was like those things, but then there became more serious things where it actually started like clicking a little for me. I was in pain. So that was one. But then like, I had a, you know, my, a constant period. And my doctor was telling me I was becoming in infertile and at 28. And that's scary. Yeah.
And I, um, I was, you know, a lot of things like I was tracking my I was always going to a doctor. So I was like tracking and seeing kind of how things were going downhill in terms of my heart, my cholesterol. I mean, they were telling me I was morbidly obese. And there was a there was a number of things. I think the infertile thing definitely hit me. Right.
And the literally the pain that I was in and like limping and like couldn't walk normally and things like that. And then I remember actually that day. Again, I keep going back to that video that I posted that you reposted. But that day was when I made this decision because I was like, OK.
No.
I don't regret posting that video. I wish that people remembered it. But people, you know, like I thought that that was going to be like my savior of like, well, I already said that I'm not going to share it anymore. Got it. But like, no, people like will, they don't pay attention to that.
They're just like, well, you aren't being the same you. And I'm like, but I told you a long time ago I was done doing that.
No, I've reposted it five times. Like, it's like, I'm like, no one's going to listen. Right. You're like, whatever. So that day I was like, if none of these people existed in my life that feel this way or all of these outside people, what would I do now? Right. And I already feel like I tried everything.
I feel like it's important to say what I tried because I also like really dealt with binge eating for years. I would say like 2019 on. I always did like diets and restricted and then gained weight, lost weight. Like the typical growing up, like did the diets with my mom for fun. Like, you know, that ended up traumatizing me later on.
I want to not hold this against you. I love you.
Yes. So I tried a number of things. I went to a very like serious six-week intensive binge eating program. I went to... Right before that, I went to like Overeaters Anonymous meetings, which I'm not sure if people even know. It's literally like, hey, you sit in a circle. Like, hi, I'm Remy. And... I tried everything like I was desperate. You know, I did that program.
And after that program, which I think was the summer of 2022, it would be like the ultimate no to do something that had to do with weight loss after that. But that's when the Ozempic stuff was coming out and like people started using it. I think I said this before. I'm not sure if I ever did, but I tried Ozempic before it was even a thing in 2020 when it just came out.
During COVID and like my doctor was just like, oh, you're pre-diabetic. You should try this. I went on it. I lost probably like 10 pounds, but I was really sick and threw up a lot from it. Like it just didn't work for me. Right. And then after the eating disorder program, I... I was like, so I gained a lot of weight from that program just based on like what they tell you to do.
And like you're eating a lot. Whatever your program is, I gained a lot more weight. So it was even in more pain and more uncomfortable. And I was like, I can't. I don't care anymore. I'm going to try Ozempic again. Right. So I tried it again. I was getting sick every day, lost a little bit of weight, not a lot. I don't feel like it worked very well for me.
Switched to Monjaro, tried that same kind of thing. And at that point, it was like probably like six months. And I was just like, I can't I'm not going to just keeping this miserable every day that I went off of that and then gained even more weight. Like that's what that summer it just caught up to me.
