I have been dealing with this for over a year now, and what I have found is that individual response

Gonna push back on this one. VA healthcare GLP-1 access veteran is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 12 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.

Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But cost accessibility is a real barrier. We should be honest about that.

Adding my data to this VA healthcare GLP-1 discussion:

Protocol: Semaglutide 1.7mg/wk, resistance training 3x/wk, protein 1.5g/kg/day.

Dr.DermMIA — wow. This community is amazing.

Slightly tangential to VA healthcare GLP-1 but marcus_mpls 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.
