Good question. For Book club currently reading, here is what the evidence says:

• The clinical trial data (SELECT program) supports this approach
• Real-world results from this community generally confirm the trial findings
• Individual variation is real — give it at least 8 weeks before judging

Happy to go deeper on any of these points if helpful.

Clinical perspective on Book club currently reading:

I have managed over 200 patients on GLP-1 therapy and this topic comes up frequently. What the data shows — and what I see in practice — is that the medication works best as part of a comprehensive approach.

For this specific question, I would recommend: getting comprehensive baseline labs first.

Reading this thread on Book club currently hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 299 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

15 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 74 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

If you are on the fence about Book club currently — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
