OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on My blood pressure.
To answer amsterdam_pete: I started tracking everything in a spreadsheet from day 1.
Quick update: I will post a proper update thread soon. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏
Adding my data to this My blood pressure discussion:
| Metric | Baseline | Month 3 | Month 8 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weight | 258 lbs | 218 lbs | 213 lbs |
| A1C | 7.2% | 5.8% | 5.4% |
| hsCRP | 7.0 | 2.0 | 0.8 |
Protocol: Semaglutide 2.4mg/wk, resistance training 3x/wk, protein 1.5g/kg/day.
Slightly tangential to My blood pressure but newstart_MO reminded me — has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?
I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
+1 to JessicaH_TX. Especially the point about "Thank you all for the thoughtful replies..." — I have seen the same in my own experience with My blood pressure.
