Measuring health beyond the scales

This is the area that has changed fastest, and where the gap between what is being marketed and what is understood is widest. People taking these medications have questions that are practical rather than theoretical, and other people taking them often give a more candid answer than a brochure.

The kind of thing that belongs here

  • What the first three months on a GLP-1 were actually like.
  • Holding on to muscle while losing weight.
  • Blood sugar creeping up with no symptoms.
  • What happens when you stop.

What does not belong here is anybody telling anybody else what to take. Nothing posted in a forum is medical advice, and a conversation is not a substitute for being assessed.
