Woman Loses 14st After Doctor's Grim Health Warning
15 Sep
Summary
- Doctor warned patient she wouldn't live to see her 30s.
- Daily £30 Greggs habit fueled extreme weight gain.
- Mounjaro injection led to a 14-stone weight loss.
A woman has achieved a remarkable 14-stone weight loss after facing a dire health prognosis. At her heaviest, Liv Lister tipped the scales at 27st 8lbs, consuming a daily £30 worth of Greggs pastries and savories, a habit that significantly impacted her health.
Her turning point came at age 25 when her GP warned she would not live to see her thirties due to her weight. This led Liv to seek alternatives to invasive surgery.
In March 2025, Liv began using Mounjaro, a weight-loss injection, purchased from an online pharmacy. She experienced rapid results, losing 2 stone in the first month alone. This initial success motivated her, leading to a total loss of 14 stone over 15 months.
Liv, now weighing 13st 6lbs, feels more confident and views her loose skin as a badge of honor. Despite a gallstone diagnosis in March 2026, she continues Mounjaro at a reduced dosage, aiming for a goal weight of 12st 6lbs by the end of the year.
Lilly, the manufacturer of Mounjaro, acknowledges gallstones as a common side effect for weight management and advises patients to consult healthcare professionals about any concerns.
