Description

This interview originally aired on Less of You.
 
Ashley tried everything. She tried all the diets: Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem, SlimFast, Houston Methodist Medical Weight Management program. Even after a gastric sleeve, her weight climbed back up to 320 lbs.
 
Going to therapy for binge eating was good, but still didn’t help her lose weight.
 
In 2024, exhausted from trying to lose weight yet again, she thought, “screw it, if I’m going to be fat, why not just get rid of my double chin?” So she decided to have neck lift surgery and found Houston plastic surgeon Dr. Bob Basu, and that’s where she discovered GLP-1s by accident. 
 
Not long after that, she started on the medication and the rest is history.
