- Zepbound helped me lose 18% of my body weight. I wish I didn't feel the need to apologize for it.
The author details her weight loss journey after starting Zepbound, a GLP-1 medication also known as tirzepatide. She lost 30 pounds, representing about 18% of her body weight, which greatly improved chronic pain in her feet and knees. Despite the success, she notes the social stigma and feeling that apologizing for improving one's health is strange.
