Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this GLP-1 and your thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first month are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪

Want to share my personal experience related to GLP-1 and your career has since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 285 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 18 months later: I am down 60 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The GLP-1 and your aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.
