This mother of two lost weight by adding a weight-management medication to her lifestyle alongside reducing calorie intake and increasing exercise.

Keytsiia is a real Wegovy® patient and paid spokesperson for Novo Nordisk. Sometimes one photo is all it takes to spark a change. For Keytsiia, a North Carolina school district administrator, a snapshot of her sitting on a motorcycle in 2016 was the wake-up call she needed to start focusing on losing weight.

Keystiia had been an avid rider since 2009, and a trip to the local dealership to browse new bikes was her husband’s attempt to uplift her. It didn’t have the intended effect, but instead, that single photo became the catalyst for a decade of positive momentum. At the time, the mother of two weighed the most she had ever weighed.

She decided to commit fully to the lifestyle approach and stuck with it for more than three years. However, despite making lifestyle changes, Keytsiia wasn’t seeing the results she hoped for and began to question whether her hard work was worth it. I hadn’t lost the weight I had hoped to.” Looking for a different approach, Keytsiia enlisted in a weight-loss program with a nutritionist, who helped her adjust her eating patterns and food choices.

But even with those healthy changes, she wasn’t seeing the progress she hoped for. What finally moved the needle, and helped her lose weight and keep it off, was adding a weight-management medication to her overall healthcare plan of diet and exercise. In January 2023, Keytsiia’s doctor suggested WEGOVY® (semaglutide) injection 2.4 mg.
