A WOMAN has revealed that thanks to Mounjaro, she has lost eight stone and has dropped from a size 20 to an 8.
But Alexandra, 33, who is from the UK and is currently living in Dubai, expressed that since using weight-loss jabs, she has suffered with hair loss.
However, the content creator isn’t bothered by this, as she claimed she likes her locks thinner.
Posting on social media, the brunette beauty, who previously revealed the very scary impact stopping Mounjaro had on her body, shared a before and after look at how her figure has changed since using the fat jabs.
In just 12 months, Alexandra confirmed that she lost eight stone, as she wrote: “What a journey the last year has been. 8 stone lost.”
Alexandra confirmed that during April 2024 to April 2025, she was able to totally transform her life, as she recognised: “Fat and miserable in the UK to living my best life in Dubai.
“I never would have dreamed life could be this good.”
When asked if she experienced hair loss, the young woman confirmed: “I did at month four, horrible but no issues now and I like my hair a bit thinner.”
Mounjaro, which is known as the King Kong of jabs, is now being prescribed on the NHS in the first anti-obesity rollout of its kind.
It is said to suppress the -appetite, making people feel fuller for longer.
Such injections are licensed for patients with type 2 diabetes and to assist those who are clinically obese – with a Body Mass Index of 30 or over.
One jab is administered each week but the duration is dependent on a person’s weight.
The drugs can be lawfully supplied only when prescribed by a practitioner – like a doctor, nurse or a pharmacist-independent prescriber.
But many are buying them through online pharmacies with insufficient checks.
Best thing I’ve ever done!Alexandra
And just earlier this month, a fat jab warning was issued after more than 100 UK deaths were linked to weight loss drugs.
Not only this, but the family of a man from Burton upon Trent, Staffs, who died after taking Mounjaro, are now calling for a probe into the jab’s “potential to kill”.
Social media users react
Alexandra’s TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @alexandraindubai, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 67,500 views, 3,617 likes and 70 comments.
Social media users were stunned by Alexandra’s new figure and many raced to the comments to express this.
One person said: “You look amazing.”
Another added: “Wow! That’s incredible! Well done you!”
A third commented: “Amazing! You must feel brilliant.”
In response, Alexandra wrote back and shared: “I feel much better that’s for sure!! Thank you!”
Meanwhile, someone else questioned: “Is it worth it?”
To this, Alexandra confirmed: “Best thing I’ve ever done!”
The reality of Mounjaro
But despite Alexandra’s weight loss success, last year it was revealed that Scots nurse Susan McGowan, 58, died after taking low-dose injections of Mounjaro over a fortnight.
A probe also found that nearly 400 people have gone to hospital after taking weight loss drugs.
Whilst Alexandra dealt with hair loss, the common side effects include nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea, which can lead to severe dehydration.
And if that wasn’t bad enough, doctors say they have also seen “life-threatening complications”, including seizures, bowel obstruction and inflammation of the pancreas.
Model Lottie Moss, 27, even said she had a seizure after taking high doses of Ozempic.
The makers of Mounjaro, Lilly UK, said patient safety is its “top priority”.
Lilly UK stressed: “Regulatory agencies conduct extensive independent assessments of the benefits and risks of every new medicine and Lilly is committed to continually monitoring, evaluating, and reporting safety data.
“If anyone is experiencing side effects when taking any Lilly medicine, they should talk to their doctor or other healthcare professional.”
