Want to share my personal experience related to Gym anxiety after major weight since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 288 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 12 months later: I am down 48 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The Gym anxiety after aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This community helped me every step of the way.

Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this Gym anxiety after thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first 6 weeks are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪
