In this special episode of This Is My Journey, the conversation turns personal as Marc opens up about his own story losing 9 stone on a GLP-1 and learning what it really means to maintain that transformation.

Joined by his close friends from TikTok, Rue and Emma, Marc reflects on the mental and emotional side of long-term weight loss, the pressure to stay consistent, the challenges of maintenance, and the reality of building a new kind of balance.

It’s an honest, unfiltered look at life after the goal weight, and a reminder that the journey doesn’t end when the number on the scale changes... it just evolves.

In this episode of This Is My Journey, I sit down with Brandon Gee, a creator who’s lost over 50 kilograms on a GLP-1 and has become a voice of honesty and inspiration for thousands of people on similar paths.

We talk about the part of transformation that rarely gets discussed.... what happens after the weight loss. The emotional and mental challenges, the body changes, the fear of regain, and learning to live in a body that feels completely new.

Brandon’s story is powerful, vulnerable, and a reminder that the real work doesn’t end when the scale stops moving..... it just changes.
