If you don’t know how something works you can always ask 💞

I’ll take this opportunity to mention the amazing changes I’ve experienced since I started a GLP-1 because there’s lots of noise about how scary these meds can be:

✨ My A1C went from a diabetic range to a normal range in under a year

✨ My blood sugars have been much more stable and I wake up with under 100 mg/dL

✨ My PCOS symptoms have been alleviated - Ex: improved insulin sensitivity

✨ I feel a lifted mental weight when it comes to thinking about food (never realized how intense food noise was until it was gone)

✨ My general health has improved - still working on cholesterol ☺️

My hope is that we can leave the GLP-1 fear-mongering and shaming behind because these meds are incredibly helpful. If we had more access to GLP-1s as preventative care I think a lot of us could benefit from that (in terms of improved general and metabolic health).

PS: Yes, my body has changed, but it’s not my measurement for success so I’m not sharing visual comparisons or weight loss updates.

... Read moreGLP-1 receptor agonists, such as tirzepatide and Mounjaro, have become increasingly recognized for their multifaceted benefits beyond glucose regulation. Many people dealing with type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndromes report significant improvements in their A1C levels within months of starting these medications. Stabilizing blood sugar levels not only reduces the day-to-day risk of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia but also contributes to overall mental well-being, as individuals often experience less anxiety around food choices. Additionally, PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) symptoms, especially those linked to insulin resistance, can improve due to enhanced insulin sensitivity triggered by these drugs. This can be a game-changer for many individuals struggling with hormonal imbalances and weight management. Importantly, while weight changes may occur, many patients emphasize that their success is measured by improved health markers, not just body appearance. GLP-1 medications extend their benefits further by potentially improving cholesterol levels and reducing cardiovascular risks associated with metabolic disorders. Importantly, early adoption as a preventative therapy could transform health outcomes for many who are prediabetic or have risk factors but are not yet diagnosed with diabetes. Despite some social stigmas and fear-mongering around these medications, community experiences highlight the transformative mental and physical health improvements they bring. It's critical to move past misconceptions and promote access to GLP-1 treatments, allowing more people to benefit from their proven efficacy in managing blood sugar, supporting metabolic health, and alleviating related conditions like PCOS.
