Gonna push back on this one. Hepatic steatosis grading on is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 18 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.
Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But adherence is harder than people admit. We should be honest about that.
Adding my data to this Hepatic steatosis grading discussion:
| Metric | Baseline | Month 5 | Month 8 |

| hsCRP | 5.0 | 4.0 | 1.2 |
Protocol: Semaglutide 1.7mg/wk, resistance training 3x/wk, protein 1.3g/kg/day.
