Relevant to Marketplace rules vendors — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.6% → 5.5%, triglycerides 225 → 95 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 17 months.

The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.

Want to share my personal experience related to Marketplace rules vendors since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 266 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 14 months later: I am down 36 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Marketplace rules aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
