Family's 20st Fat Jab Triumph
8 Apr
Summary
- Three family members lost over 20 stone using weight loss medication.
- Glasgow is named the UK's 'fat jab capital' with one-third using jabs.
- Key advice includes staying hydrated and avoiding fatty foods.

Three family members from Glasgow, dubbed the UK's 'fat jab capital,' have collectively lost over 20 stone since starting weight loss medication in 2022. Debbie Brannan, Carly Brannan, and Lynsay Brannan have each experienced significant weight reduction and health improvements, inspiring their venture into medical weight management services.
Debbie lost 7 stone in seven months on Wegovy, reversing obesity and improving fibromyalgia and lipedema. Her success encouraged Carly, who lost 5st 7lbs on Ozempic and Mounjaro, and Lynsay, who shed nearly half her body weight using Mounjaro, dropping from 16st to 8st 4lbs.
As Glasgow sees a third of dieters using these medications, Debbie, who now runs an award-winning clinic, shares essential advice. She stresses the importance of hydration, recommending water or electrolytes, and advises avoiding fatty foods, alcohol, and energy drinks to prevent side effects like sulphur burps.
Debbie also suggests smaller, more frequent meals instead of large portions. Limiting takeaways to once a week and choosing healthier options are also recommended. The family credits these jabs with life-changing results that lifestyle changes alone could not achieve.
