Trying to decide between options regarding yoga and glp-1 flexibility, mindfulness, and and could use some input from people who have been there.

My situation: been on sema for 6 months considering a switch.

I have read the wiki and FAQ but real-world experiences would help me make a decision. What would you do in my position?

maya_sedona's experience with Yoga and GLP-1 resonates deeply with mine. I went through almost the identical process — starting dose, titration timeline, side effects, everything.

The main difference: I titrated faster. But the overall trajectory has been remarkably similar. Down 36 lbs in 11 months.

One thing I would add that maya_sedona did not mention: the relationship with food fundamentally changed.

Thanks for sharing this, maya_sedona. A few questions about your Yoga and GLP-1 experience:

1. What dose are you currently on?
2. How long before you noticed significant changes?
3. Did your doctor have any specific recommendations about Yoga and GLP-1 ?

I am in a similar boat and trying to learn from others' experiences before my next appointment.

OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Yoga and GLP-1 .

To answer HealthEcon_DC: yes, I am on compounded sema from a 503B pharmacy.

Quick update: things are still going well. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏

Relevant to Yoga and GLP-1 flexibility, — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.6% → 5.5%, triglycerides 249 → 119 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 17 months.

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