Episode 3: Shelbi - The Thinner Side of 140 Pounds Lost

Episode 3: Shelbi - The Thinner Side of 140 Pounds Lost

In this episode, Emma talks with Shelbi from @thethinnerside — an American content creator, teacher and advocate who has lost nearly 140 pounds in 17 months through medical treatment for obesity.

Together, we explore what it’s really like to live through such a profound transformation — from the emotional highs and identity shifts to the quiet, everyday realities of life after weight loss. Shelbi shares her journey through pregnancy, weight gain, and multiple sclerosis, and how discovering GLP-1 medication (tirzepatide) changed her relationship with food, hunger, and self-worth.

Shelbi’s story isn’t about perfection — it’s about honesty, courage, and what happens when you finally stop fighting your body and start working with it.


🎙️ Hosted by Emma, founder of the Swedish podcast Viktmedicinpodden as well as The Weight Medicine Podcast, where real people and experts share the untold stories behind GLP-1, obesity, and modern health.
