Katie’s Story

Katie first trialled weight loss medication in mid-2024 when she weighed 112 kilograms. While she did lose four kilograms in just four weeks, the side effects were severe. The fatigue and nausea became unmanageable, and she had to stop the medication. By the time she began filming Married at First Sight in August 2024, she was down to 108 kilograms. But over the following six months – without any medication – her weight plateaued.

 

Following the screening of MAFS earlier this year, Katie was determined to re-start her health journey, but this time, in the smartest way possible. She started her journey with a DEXA scan to get the most accurate picture possible. Instead of just seeing a few extra KGs of fat that she needed to lose. The scan revealed a life-threatening level of visceral fat - fat that wraps around the internal organs and is closely linked to heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, fatty liver disease, and more.

 

Katie was in the danger zone.

 

This gave Katie a huge wake up call and she was determined to make the most of her journey, this time around.

In late April 2025, she started again but this time, she paired her weight loss medication with a world first smart protein shake that changed everything. glo_up_1 by nuut, is  scientifically formulated to not only deliver the highest level of protein but to also combat the negative side effects of weight loss drugs.

 

Twelve weeks later, she has dropped four dress sizes, reduced her visceral fat to safe levels, and now weighs 83.8kg. More importantly, she feels energised, clear-headed and emotionally strong.

“Instead of chasing a goal weight, I realised I was running from an early death. This wasn’t about looking good, it was about surviving.
The scan was the wake-up call I needed.”

- Katie

Unlike many who report fatigue, nausea and muscle loss on weight loss drugs, Katie thrived. glo_up_1 gave her the fuel to train three times a week with her personal trainer, plus extra gym and group fitness sessions on her own.

“Protein is the only macronutrient your body doesn’t store, so if you don’t consume enough, you lose muscle instead of fat,That’s why glo_up_1 was such a game changer. I stayed strong and alert the whole time.”

- Katie

* Dr Zac Turner is not endorsing or in any way recommending the use of the glo_up_1 product. His comments are general in nature on the topic of weight loss meds.

Katie’s DEXA scans were an important tool in this journey and Dr Zac Turner worked with Katie overseeing these   medical assessments:

“Katie is now healthy where it counts. When she first came to see us, her visceral fat levels were dangerously high. Visceral fat is the kind that wraps around your internal organs and increases your risk of serious conditions like heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. She’s now sitting at 80.4 cm², which is well below the high-risk threshold of 100 cm². That result alone is a massive win.

But we don’t just look at fat loss, we look at what’s happening to muscle too. Lean muscle is the single biggest regulator of metabolism. It acts like a sponge for blood sugar, helping to reduce inflammation throughout the body. And when you reduce inflammation, you reduce the risk of a whole range of cardiometabolic diseases. There’s also emerging research linking muscle mass with improved cognitive function as we age – so it’s not just about looking good, it’s about long-term brain and body health.

Katie has done the work. Through consistent nutrition, regular exercise and a clear focus on her health, she’s made progress that’s measurable and meaningful. And you can see it in her smile – because mental health improves when physical health improves. This is what holistic transformation looks like.”

- Dr Zac Turner

Katie also experienced other unexpected benefits:

“I’m stronger. My back pain is gone. I sleep through the night. I can hike a mountain without stopping 20 times. And I’ve got my zest for adventure back.

It wasn't just the loss of the dangerous visceral fat, I'm proud of, finally letting love in and trusting the process. I saved my own life. I am my own hero."

- Katie
