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, 8 months later: I am down 58 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The My dad had a heart aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This community helped me every step of the way.
Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this My dad had a heart thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first 6 weeks are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪
