Reading this thread on 72-year-old hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 275 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

11 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 50 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

If you are on the fence about 72-year-old — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

Relevant to 72-year-old transformation — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 8.0% → 5.3%, triglycerides 207 → 107 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 11 months.

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

Thank you jennifer_SEA! This is incredibly helpful. Bookmarking for later. 🙏

+1 to Dr.RheumBOS. Especially the point about "72-year-old is exactly what I've been re..." — I have seen the same in my own experience with 72-year-old.
