Reading this thread on Enteroendocrine L-cell hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 279 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

15 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 54 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

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

VendorMark — that is really helpful context on Enteroendocrine L-cell. Follow-up question: what labs did your doctor order to monitor this?

I am in a similar situation (just started) and trying to set realistic expectations.

Reading this thread on Enteroendocrine L-cell hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 261 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

7 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 36 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

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

AttorneyGrant — that is really helpful context on Enteroendocrine L-cell. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?

I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.
