Metformin works on blood sugar through a different route than tirzepatide, leaning more on the liver and boosting your own GLP1 output. Checking insulin levels alongside A1C could help pinpoint whether metformin addresses your issue and why youve stalled. The Fat Science podcast covers the real science behind glucose regulation and metabolism. The diet culture talk here is disappointing, these drugs should have put the willpower myth to rest. They arent psychological, they change metabolism directly, and everyone with diabetes or obesity has dysfunction somewhere in the loop controlling appetite, hunger, energy, blood sugar, insulin, and fullness. Metformin could help if insulin resistance is the root cause, since tirzepatide alone may not resolve that piece blocking further loss.
