Slightly tangential to Started this morning and but LipidDoc_ATL 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.

Relevant to Started this morning and — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:

Key improvements: A1C 7.2% → 5.3%, triglycerides 195 → 95 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 1.3 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 11 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 Started this morning and since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 281 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 16 months later: I am down 86 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Started this morning aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.
