Saving this for reference. Quality thread.

Slightly tangential to My bloodwork is SO much but Dr.EndoIndy reminded me — has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.

Relevant to My bloodwork is SO much better — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.6% → 5.5%, triglycerides 209 → 109 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 0.9 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 13 months.

The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.

Want to share my personal experience related to My bloodwork is SO much better since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 280 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 12 months later: I am down 35 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The My bloodwork is SO aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.

bri_stats — that is really helpful context on My bloodwork is SO much. Follow-up question: did you change anything about your diet at the same time?

I am in a similar situation (month 2) and trying to set realistic expectations.
