OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on Peloton + GLP-1 community.
To answer mike.trainer_LA: I get my labs done through Quest every 3 months.
Quick update: my latest labs came back even better. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏
Relevant to Peloton + GLP-1 community — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.0% → 5.3%, triglycerides 199 → 99 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 1.1 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 15 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
Yep. My endo said the same thing about Peloton + GLP-1.
Slightly tangential to Peloton + GLP-1 community but PurityPaulOR reminded me — has the insurance landscape changed recently?
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.

This is exactly right. BrianDallas92 articulated what I have been trying to explain to my friends for months. The Peloton + GLP-1 community aspect is what made the difference for me.
