A woman in her twenties has lost six stone in just nine months thanks to weight loss<\/a> jabs – but it wasn’t without some very unpleasant side effects.<\/p>\n

Bethany Diana, from the UK, went from a size 18 to a size eight after starting on Mounjaro (tirzepatide) in July 2024.<\/p>\n

But the 27-year-old, who says she is ‘such a better version’ of herself for having shed the weight, hasn’t shied away from revealing the downsides of using the fat jab.<\/p>\n

Mounjaro is typically prescribed to patients with type two diabetes<\/a>. The NHS<\/a> has warned that it should be used only by those who have been prescribed it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bethany, who has racked up more than 75,000 likes on TikTok<\/a>, took to the platform to share the 10 side effects she’s experienced since beginning her weight loss journey.<\/p>\n

In a clip <\/a>that has been viewed 109,000 times, the content creator revealed that she has suffered with diarrhoea as a result of Mounjaro.<\/p>\n

Just as troublingly, Bethany, who goes by @bethanydianax on TikTok, has experienced bad breath.<\/p>\n

In addition, the young brunette struggled with hair loss during her weight loss journey, though she did not give an insight into how severe this symptom was.<\/p>\n

\"She <\/p>\n

She began her weight loss journey in July 2024 and has lost six stone in nine months<\/p>\n

Another, particularly unpleasant, side effect was what Bethany called ‘Sulphur burps’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sulfur burps, the name given to burps which have a rotten egg smell, occur when there is hydrogen sulfide gas in the gut.<\/p>\n

She has also suffered with constipation, nausea, heartburn, wind and reflux, she said in the clip entitled ‘Some of my side effects since being on Mounjaro’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Finally, Bethany told how the jabs suppressed her appetite – the medication aids weight loss by making the patient feel fuller for much longer than usual.<\/p>\n

In a subsequent TikTok clip, Bethany told viewers: ‘Mounjaro stole my booty’.<\/p>\n

A number of people on medications like Mounjaro have complained that their behinds have become saggy as a result of the relatively rapid weight loss.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

The side effects included diarrhoea, bad breath, wind and reflux, Bethany said\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, she appears to have no regrets about using the jabs. In the caption to the clip, she wrote: ‘But on the plus side I did lose six stone in nine months and I am such a better version of myself’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Viewers were quick to share their own experiences of side effects in the comments section beneath Bethany’s clip, with a number echoing her symptoms.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One person wrote: ‘It’s the sulphur burps and the feeling of nausea which I cannot stand especially when I’m hardly eating anything to cause it. Still on the plus side, weight is coming off well’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another person said: ‘Yes, I have bad breath. I did not know it was from the injection’.<\/p>\n

While a third wrote: ‘I’m on week two and the only side effect I’ve had is a bit of constipation. Feel like I have been lucky’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Bethany’s clip listing the side effects of Mounjaro prompted one person to wonder if it was all worth it.<\/p>\n

The TikTok user asked: ‘Why would you do it then?!’<\/p>\n

In her response, Bethany pointed out that the side effects were ‘temporary’ while the weight loss was ‘for life’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While Bethany has reported a positive experience on Mounjaro, more than 80 Brits have died after using weight-loss and diabetes jabs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"Other <\/p>\n

Other TikTok users shared their experiences of side effects – while one questioned why Bethany’s decision<\/p>\n

The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency reported at least 22 fatalities linked to the medication up to the end of January. A further 60 deaths were recorded for products aimed to help with Type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n

Nearly 400 people also required hospital treatment since the rollout of the products over the past few years.<\/p>\n

The NHS has warned patients to ‘never take an anti-obesity medicine if it has not been prescribed to you’.<\/p>\n

Susan McGowan, a 58 year-old nurse from Lanarkshire, died from multiple organ failure, septic shock and pancreatitis after taking two low-dose injections of tirzepatide.<\/p>\n

She took the jabs for a two-week period before her death on September 4 last year. It is thought to be the first time the medicine has been listed as a contributing factor on a death certificate.<\/p>\n
