Want to share my personal experience related to I fit into my college jeans since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 245 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 14 months later: I am down 35 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The I fit into my aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
