Slightly tangential to Took a progress photo and but mike.trainer_LA reminded me — what is the latest on the oral formulations?
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.
Saving this for reference. Quality thread.

Relevant to Took a progress photo and WOW — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.4% → 5.5%, triglycerides 213 → 113 mg/dL, hsCRP 8.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 17 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
Want to share my personal experience related to Took a progress photo and WOW since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 284 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 16 months later: I am down 69 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Took a progress aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This forum was my go-to resource throughout.
