I'm a data geek, plain and simple!
Since I began GLP-1 treatment in June of last year, I've kept meticulous records of my body composition. The results are pretty compelling. I wanted to share this journey not just as a personal victory, but also to challenge the narrative that this medication inevitably leads to muscle wasting or that dreaded "skinny fat" appearance.
I don't do heavy lifting – just consistent group fitness classes at the YMCA and regular walks. I've never counted calories or macros. I just intuitively made smarter food choices.
Today, I'm officially in the normal weight category. Not overweight. Not "obese." And for someone who has struggled with extra weight their whole life, this is huge. I wasn't sure it would work at all, and I'm so grateful I tried it.
