A British DJ has told how she was left with “old lady bones” in her 30s after a freak accident revealed a hidden health crisis \u2013 and she’s now warning others about the dangers of trendy weight-loss jabs.

\nSophie Wright, 35, a former professional ice skater turned writer and DJ, was diagnosed with severe osteoporosis after snapping her thigh bone in a fall doctors say should never have caused such damage.

\nShe said: “I landed on a straight leg and snapped my thigh. The femur is the biggest and hardest bone in your body to break. The surgeon asked if I\u2019d been in a car crash because it was such a high-impact injury.”

\nA DEXA scan revealed Sophie\u2019s bones were dangerously brittle.

\nShe explained: “I couldn\u2019t have scored any lower. I\u2019m essentially made of glass at this point.”

\nAlthough she has never taken popular weight-loss jabs like Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro, her experience has made her deeply suspicious of the booming craze for slimming injections.

\nSophie said: “I\u2019m sure as hell staying away from Ozempic-like jabs. Bone health had never entered my mind… It\u2019s what your nan might talk about.”

\nDoctors say Sophie\u2019s fears are not unfounded. The powerful appetite-suppressing drugs \u2013 originally created to manage type 2 diabetes \u2013 are now being widely used for fast-track weight loss, but studies suggest they may come at a dangerous cost to bone health.

\nAs appetite and food intake fall, so do essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin D, putting users at risk of fractures and even visible height loss. Some patients have reportedly shrunk by as much as two inches.

\nDr. Doug Lucas, a metabolic health expert, said the risks could be “potentially catastrophic” for many users.

\nHe explained: “A higher percentage of weight lost using jabs is lean mass \u2013 from both muscle and bone.

\n“These are critical tissues for long-term health. With tens of millions of adults now using these drugs, the consequences could be widespread.”

\nSophie\u2019s accident changed her life. She required surgery to rebuild her femur and now has permanent metalwork in her leg.

\nShe explained: “I still can\u2019t fully bend my leg. But I know I\u2019m not normal because a healthy woman of 35 should not be shattering her bones like this.”

\nTo add to the shock, Sophie was also diagnosed with diabetes \u2013 the very illness the injections are meant to treat. Despite being a textbook candidate for the jabs, she\u2019s decided the risk is too high.

\nShe said: “I considered Ozempic to help manage my blood sugar. But now I just think no. Not worth the risk.”

\nDoctors say anyone considering weight-loss jabs should be properly monitored, and stress the importance of strength training and a diet rich in bone-friendly nutrients.

\nOne specialist said: “Losing weight doesn\u2019t have to come at the cost of your skeleton.”

\nFor Sophie, the warning has come too late \u2013 but she hopes others will think twice before jumping on the jab bandwagon.

\nShe said: “I\u2019m essentially made of glass at this point.

\n“And no one told me this could happen.”
