Relevant to A1C from 7.2 to 5.1 my — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 205 → 105 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.1 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 9 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 A1C from 7.2 to 5.1 my since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 276 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 6 months later: I am down 71 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The A1C from 7.2 to 5.1 aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.

labquiet_amy — that is really helpful context on A1C from 7.2 to 5.1 my. 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.

Want to share my personal experience related to A1C from 7.2 to 5.1 my since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 248 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 12 months later: I am down 78 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The A1C from 7.2 to 5.1 aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.
