Reading this thread on Arterial stiffness hits close to home. Night shift nurse — I started at 287 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
13 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 62 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about Arterial stiffness — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️
