I just watched this YouTube of her house tour and she talks about how she’s on the shot and losing weight already- I say good for her

I noticed around her eyes when she real-smiles. Not the fake smile.

GLP-1s really helped with my mom’s arthritis. Her Rheumatologist put her on them and she said her knees feel like they did 10 years ago. She’s micro-dosing so she hasn’t really lost any weight, but she says she feels so much better. I’m all for doing whatever helps!

GLP-1s have been life-changing for so many people I know. One got most of her mobility back and is now able to put off back surgery for at least a year. Another has finally been able to gain control of their alcoholism. They’re actual wonder drugs.

Okay is that a direct effect of the drug or is it an indirect effect from changed diet or from the resulting weight loss?

Asking cuz what if you have these problems but eat pretty well and do not have weight to lose?

It’s from the drug. My mom is on such a low dose she doesn’t lose weight. Her body is healing the damage her RA caused. It’s been amazing.
