She revealed she was a size 24 and weighed over 22 stone before deciding to try out the weight loss injections.
Emma decided to take some pictures of herself before starting Mounjaro and shared them as inspiration.
She admitted: “My neck was non-existent and I struggled to breathe constantly.
Over the years, food became my comfort.”
In another clip, she admitted she couldn’t look at herself without crying.
She added: “I was down in the dumps, depressed and emotional!
“Scared to look in the mirror because I knew I’d cry… The double chin deserved its own postcode.”
However, it wasn’t long until Emma started to see results.
In just two weeks, Emma lost over a stone and in seven months, she lost seven stone in total.
Now, Emma says she is so much happier in her own skin and finally loves herself again.
“New found confidence, new found love for myself, all because I decided enough was enough,” she captioned the post.
Emma revealed that she has since stopped taking the drug and hasn’t put any of the weight she lost back on.
The clip went viral on her TikTok account @__mummyof2__ with over 131k views.
People were quick to congratulate Emma for her weight loss success.
What are the other side effects of weight loss jabs?
Like any medication, weight loss jabs can have side effects.
Common side effects of injections such as Ozempic include:
Nausea: This is the most commonly reported side effect, especially when first starting the medication. It often decreases over time as your body adjusts.
Vomiting: Can occur, often in conjunction with nausea.
Diarrhea: Some people experience gastrointestinal upset.
Constipation: Some individuals may also experience constipation.
Stomach pain or discomfort: Some people may experience abdominal pain or discomfort.
Reduced appetite: This is often a desired effect for people using Ozempic for weight loss.
Indigestion: Can cause a feeling of bloating or discomfort after eating.
Serious side effects can also include:
Pancreatitis: In rare cases, Ozempic may increase the risk of inflammation of the pancreas, known as pancreatitis, which can cause severe stomach pain, nausea, and vomiting.
Kidney problems: There have been reports of kidney issues, including kidney failure, though this is uncommon.
Thyroid tumors: There’s a potential increased risk of thyroid cancer, although this risk is based on animal studies. It is not confirmed in humans, but people with a history of thyroid cancer should avoid Ozempic.
Vision problems: Rapid changes in blood sugar levels may affect vision, and some people have reported blurry vision when taking Ozempic.
Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar): Especially if used with other medications like sulfonylureas or insulin.
