Summary

Heather Gay, star of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, has shared her experience with GLP-1 medications, which she utilized to achieve a 30-pound weight loss. Initially skeptical of weight loss fads, Gay decided to try the medication in 2023, finding success in maintaining her weight for a year.
Gay attributes her success to scientific advancements rather than solely relying on personal determination. She stated that traditional "calories in, calories out" methods had not worked for her in the past, and understanding that it wasn't a personal failing helped her improve her self-perception.
Following her weight loss, Gay has embraced a more intentional approach to nutrition, partnering with Atkins for a low-carbohydrate and high-protein eating plan. She has also increased her physical activity, adding weekly yoga and occasional cycling classes to her routine.
