Want to share my personal experience related to Orforglipron food interaction since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 258 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 12 months later: I am down 83 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Orforglipron food aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
