Want to share my personal experience related to Structure-function of 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, 10 months later: I am down 50 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Structure-function aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This community helped me every step of the way.
