I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 281 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 16 months later: I am down 76 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Has anyone dealt aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this Has anyone dealt thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first few weeks are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪
