From 310 to 198 in 15 months — detailed timeline with labs

OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on From 310 to 198 in 15.

To answer Dr.NutriCornell: I get my labs done through Quest every 3 months.

Quick update: my latest labs came back even better. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏

Relevant to From 310 to 198 in 15 months — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.2% → 5.3%, triglycerides 199 → 99 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 1.1 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 15 months.

The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.

Yep. My endo said the same thing about From 310 to 198 in.

Slightly tangential to From 310 to 198 in 15 but paige_pharma reminded me — has the insurance landscape changed recently?

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.
