Woman who lost 7st in just 10 months WITHOUT Mounjaro reveals how she did it
British mother Lucy took to her TikTok @lucy52915 to showcase her impressive weight loss journey - and share her three top tips for shedding the pounds.
The clip, which racked up over 840,000 views, left many of her followers totally stunned with her transformation.
Taking to the comments to answer some questions, Lucy revealed that she started her fitness journey on September 1, 2024.
Lucy attributes her weight loss to three healthy habits, which are eating in a calorie deficit, walking 10,000 steps a day and weight lifting.
She revealed that she makes sure to consume 180g of protein every day, as well as 27g to 30g of fibre.
When it comes to walking, the fitness fanatic stressed the importance of doing 10,000 steps every single day.
Meanwhile, she revealed she works out four times a week, doing 'two glute-focused sessions, one full body and one upper body' gym session.
She also credited 'consistency' for her slimmer frame and 'progressive overload' which is a training principle where you gradually increase the demands on your body during exercise to stimulate continued improvement in strength, muscle growth, and endurance.
Less than a year since she started her health and fitness journey, Lucy has now reached her goal weight and claimed she doesn't want to lose any more.
Many flooded the comments to praise Lucy on her transformation, while others eagerly asked for tips on how to kick-start their own weight loss journeys.
One person wrote: 'Wow you look amazing!! Have you got any advice as I really struggle with a calorie deficit, can't explain it but it just makes me eat so unhealthily.
'But at the same time don't want to go back to slimming world and pay the expensive fees' added the individual.
To which Lucy replied: 'Do the deficit but focus on protein! I eat 180g a day and 27-30g fibre! Then weight training and 10,000 steps a day. Keep going girl.'
Another asked: 'Can I ask what weight training you did please, you really got it right you look very toned. You look amazing by the way. Well done - this isn't easy to do.'
To which Lucy replied: 'Four times a week. Two glutes focused sessions and one full body and one upper.'

Someone else added: 'Mounjarno is amazing'. To which Lucy replied: 'No Mounjarno for me! I'm still breastfeeding so can't! Calories deficit, walking and weight lifting.'
A fourth person said in the comment section: 'Well done you look like a different person, taken years off you.'
Another individual added: 'It's nice to see a success story without any jabs. Well done! Inspiring for me to do more. I've lost 10lb since mid May on calorie deficit.'

Thousands were harmed by vaginal mesh. Now could breast cancer patients be at risk too?
Jackie O'Carroll was 'a busy mum of three', working in HR at Rotherham Council, when she underwent surgery to treat urinary incontinence caused by childbirth. 'When I was out jumping around with the kids, I was a bit incontinent,' she recalls. 'Surgeons at my local hospital said I might have a prolapse and they had a gold-standard surgical treatment.

The pressure to breastfeed my premature baby nearly broke me
I thought breastfeeding would be easy. Birth I knew could be very difficult, but breastfeeding? That, I assumed, would happen as naturally for me as it had for my mother. I would feed my baby serenely and with ease, like one of those lactating Madonnas. No one talked to me about the pain; none of the mothers I knew. Not even the breastfeeding expert who led our NCT session, during which no potential challenges were mentioned. (I suspect she thought she might 'spook' us into not trying.) So why, when I fed my son, did it feel like my nipples were being pierced with shards of glass? Why did I so often gasp, burst into tears and, on a couple of occasions, even scream in pain?

Concern over weight gain after ‘skinny jabs'
Research shows that many people regain weight after stopping treatment if they are not supported, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (Nice) said. The health watchdog said that people coming off the drugs should be offered 'structured advice and follow-up support' to help prevent weight gain. The guidance is for people who are offered the treatments through the NHS. An estimated 1.5 million people are taking weight loss jabs in the UK, but the vast majority are paying for them privately so will not be eligible for NHS support after they have finished their treatment. Around 240,000 people with 'greatest need' are expected to receive Mounjaro, also known as tirzepatide, through the NHS over the next three years. The new 'quality standard' from Nice says that NHS patients should be monitored for at least a year after they complete treatment, and extra support should be offered if needed. It emphasises building 'long-term behavioural habits, use self-monitoring tools, and draw on wider support – from online communities to family-led interventions and local activities'. This standard, a type of guidance for the health services in England and Wales, sets out expectations for health providers including how they should support patients. 'Successful weight management doesn't end when medication stops or when someone completes a behavioural programme,' said Professor Jonathan Benger, deputy chief executive and chief medical officer at Nice. 'We know that the transition period after treatment is crucial, and people need structured support to maintain the positive changes they've made. 'This new standard makes sure services provide that vital continuity of care, and it supports the NHS 10 Year Plan to shift from a 'sickness service' to a genuine health service focused on prevention.' Dr Rebecca Payne, chair of Nice's Quality Standards Advisory Committee, added: 'Weight management is a long-term journey, not a short-term fix. Little swaps can make tasty, healthy changes. For lots of tips and support to eat better visit: — NHS Blackpool Teaching Hospitals 💙🌈 (@BlackpoolHosp) April 12, 2025 'The evidence is clear that advice and support for maintaining weight after stopping medicines or completing behavioural interventions can help prevent weight regain and enable people to experience lasting benefits. 'We've seen excellent examples of services that already provide comprehensive discharge planning and ongoing support. 'This quality standard will help ensure all healthcare providers adopt these best practices, giving every person the best chance of maintaining their weight management success over the long term. 'This standard ensures healthcare services are equipped to provide that essential ongoing support.' Commenting, Henry Gregg, chief executive of the National Pharmacy Association, said: 'Pharmacies take their responsibilities seriously to provide full wrap around support to patients trying to achieve a healthy weight. 'We know that although medication can be effective in speeding up weight loss in some people, it is not a silver bullet and patients need to make long term lifestyle changes to make their weight loss sustainable. 'The current NHS roll out of weight loss treatment is very small, with only a handful of patients receiving it and it will continue to be the case that the vast majority of eligible patients will be seen by their pharmacy.' Professor Kamila Hawthorne, chairwoman of the Royal College of GPs, said: 'There is no one-size-fits-all approach to tackling obesity – what works for one patient will likely not work for another and, as with any medication, weight-loss drugs do not come without risk. 'It's also the case that patients will likely need support to sustain their weight loss once they stop taking the medication. As such, this is important and sensible guidance from Nice. 'As a college, we've been clear that whilst weight loss medications have significant potential benefits for patients who are struggling to lose weight, they mustn't be seen as a 'silver bullet' and ensuring access to sufficient 'wraparound' services – particularly for when patients come off their medication – will be key to optimal health outcomes.'
