Gabriela was trying to lose the weight she'd gained during the Covid pandemic. But a few stubborn kilos just wouldn't budge.

But "nothing worked" for the Brazilian lawyer who weighed 76kg (11st 13lb) and is 1.69m tall (5ft 6in).

Then, friends let her in on a secret - they'd been using weight-loss injections and were thrilled with the results.

So despite being a long-standing fitness fanatic, Gabriela, 40, decided to do the same.
