I have been on diets my whole life and have always felt like I never feel full. It didn’t matter the diet I was on or the medication I tried; I always felt insatiable. I also had PCOS and was told I could go on a GLP1 to control it, but having tried it before, I knew that wasn’t a permanent solution. I had seen Everself advertised a few years back and considered it, but I was hesitant because I hadn’t heard of ESG before. This time around, I did some research, saw positive testimonials, and felt it was the right time to inquire. I was impressed with the care team from the very start and felt confident in my decision to choose ESG with Everself.
In June 2025, my family and I went to Epic Universe, and seeing a picture of myself made me finally say, “I really need to take control.” I have always been active, lifting heavy weights and still working out at high intensity, so I never felt unhealthy or uncomfortable in my skin. Still, my labs were showing insulin resistance and elevated cholesterol, and I knew if I didn’t make a change soon, my health would get worse. I am also concerned about diabetes, as dementia and Alzheimer’s run in my family. I recently lost my father suddenly to cancer after suffering many years with Alzheimer’s, so I also knew I needed to make sure my weight and, more so, my insulin were under control.
This journey has been eye-opening in so many ways and unlike any of my other weight-loss experiences. Generally, I lose pounds and see scale results, but this journey, I’ve seen more non-scale victories than before. The scale has moved, but my body composition has changed so much, and I see such a difference in my clothes and how I feel. I also see changes in my physical abilities and my overall endurance. I go to Orange Theory and wear a heart rate monitor when exercising and notice huge gains in my cardiovascular health and training levels. I feel lighter when I work out, and each time I’m able to run longer or lift heavier, I know I am making gains and moving in the right direction. One thing that makes me proud is my ability to be consistent in my food choices and eating habits. Being able to say no thank you or eat a small amount and feel satisfied, and I know I couldn’t have made it to this point without ESG and the amazing support from Everself.
