Manage your Weight Loss for Your Event

As a wedding planner, I've found that during almost every initial consultation, the bride—or the mother of the bride—eventually mentions wanting to lose a few pounds before the big day.

I personally lost 55 pounds on a GLP-1 (Trizepatide) and had a very positive experience. I share my journey because I know this is something many people struggle with, and adding the stress of weight goals on top of wedding planning can feel overwhelming.

Sometimes, all we need is an actual (Real) referral to a reputable company we can trust. I chose EllieMD after seeing my own daughter lose over 60 pounds. She had such a great experience that I felt confident beginning my own journey with them.

The process is simple. You'll complete a health questionnaire, and after it's reviewed by a licensed medical provider, any appropriate prescription is shipped directly to your door. Many people are nervous about self-injections at first, but most find they're much easier than they expected.

As with any health related decision, I encourage you to do your own research and choose the provider that's right for you. One of the reasons I chose EllieMD is that their program includes the Telehealth consultation with real Doctors, shipping, and the supplies you need to get started. We also love the TRIPLE PURITY QUALITY. Also, some companies advertise a lower price but charge additional fees for these services. With EllieMD it is all included.

If you're considering a wellness program before your wedding or special event, it's worth planning ahead. Starting three to four months before your event can give you time to establish healthy habits and work toward your goals without adding unnecessary pressure as your big day approaches.

This “before” picture was my wake-up call! Hiding behind loose clothes and oversized jackets had to end! I had worked so hard to lose 10 pounds before this trip and thought it had made a bigger difference. While on the trip, I simply felt miserable. My knees were killing me, and you can even see the inflammation in my face.

When I thought about how long it had taken me to lose those 10 pounds through diet and exercise, I felt discouraged and found myself in tears. I was also dealing with other health issues that made losing weight and reducing inflammation even more difficult.

I was skeptical about the GLP-1 meds and simply didn't want to go down that road. There are always nay sayers on nearly every topic known to man, and I found all of them when I was doing my research on these peptides.

Fortunately for me, my daughter had been educating herself on the effects of the GLP_1 peptides and she had started losing weight and feeling great.

I started on a micro dose of Tirzepatide in April of 2025. I wanted to start slow so I could be sure that I could tolerate it. I was a fast responder and lost 6 pounds in the first week. (results vary from person to person)

To say the least.. I was in amazement. I started feeling better and better week by week. I have been asked many times if I got sick on this peptide and the answer is slightly but it subsided for me with a low dose and listening to my body. This is different for everyone...

Let me introduce you to my daughter Karli:

Karli and I worked together for many years in the wedding and event business. She is an incredible artist and does all of our Calligraphy for wedding signage. After having all 4 of her babies, she struggled to get the extra weight off due to PCOS and insulin resistance. See her story below...

Hi, I’m Karli. I started using a GLP-1 medication in March of 2023, and it truly changed my life. I wasn’t sure if it was going to work for me, but I’m so happy to say that it did! I lost 55 pounds in just 5 months.

It has been an incredible life change, and I’m forever grateful. I feel so much better, and my energy is through the roof. I used to dread shopping for clothes and would cringe whenever someone wanted to take my photo. All of those negative feelings are gone, and I finally feel like my true self again.

I’m also very impressed with EllieMD and the quality of service they provide. If you’re thinking about taking this life-changing step, I’m cheering you on!
