Dr. Bruce Lowell Guided My Incredible Weight Loss!

I am addicted to food, have been on dozens of diets, some with great success, but I revert to old habits in the following months. Now with the guidance and continued over watch of my P.C.P. Dr. Bruce Lowell I began my latest weight loss journey. I started at about 410lbs, in January 2024 and with Dr. Lowell’s continual blood testing and weighing on about a monthly basis began my latest weight loss journey. He suggested a two pronged attack, using intermittent fasting and Mounjaro. My A1C was I believe 6.1, I had been taking prescription medication to keep my sugar levels down.
Being obese and having other medical issues Dr. Lowell checked my weight and blood continually as I began to lose weight.. At this time I was taking numerous prescription medications for my heart, blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, and more. I began to loss weight quickly and as months passed bye, I began to actually see the difference in the clothes I was wearing. Around June 24, I began to feel symptoms of dizziness and Dr. Lowell reduced number and size of my medications. This was working great, I had a lot more energy and mobility. As my diet progressed, I had difficulty getting my Mounjaro prescriptions refilled, but Dr. Lowell was there to assist me in finding a pharmacy that could supply me with Mounjaro.
It has been about 14 months and my weight loss continues. Some months are really encouraging and others are disappointing. I have misplaced a little more than 170 pounds, I do not count it as lost weight until I keep it off two years. I am 238 pounds as of my last doctors appointment. My goal is 190-200 pounds! Then building some back in muscle, with 215 my maximum. It is a wonderful rush seeing the scale when I have a good weight loss weigh in. And depressing when the results do not show the hard work put into dieting. Mounjaro really helps curb my appetite, but your will power is continually tested. I have learned to stay away from situations where overeating occurs, Holiday dinners you need to either leave early, or excuse myself from the table.
My weight a few years ago was over 500 lbs, and under Dr. Lowell guidance I was slowly able to lose over 100 lbs over a couple of years. With my doctors expertise, knowledge, and education specializing in obesity I have been able to successfully diet, while feeling strong and healthy. I owe it to Dr. Lowell for providing me with the tools and necessary knowledge to reduce my weight and most importantly to maintain my desired weight.
