My weight loss journey
Why Henrys Meds? When I was obese and did not have the support of my doctor to use a GLP-1 despite my diagnosis of pre diabetes, a family history of diabetes, and high fasting blood sugar. Being menopausal I just started gaining weight, despite diet (KETO) and exercise. If diet and exercise was the solution to my weight issue I shouldn't have had a problem, yet there I was. I contacted Henrys Med to figure out if I was a candidate and since insurance wasn't covering the program if I could afford to be on the program. I have regular visits with my practitioner on Zoom, I can contact Henrys anytime I have questions or am having concerns (like having surgery) while using the medication. The providers are very thorough and you know what your suppose to be doing while using the medication, like exercising, drinking plenty of water and knowledge about how the medication works...how to give yourself shots, etc. My journey continues and I have lost 40 lbs and am no longer obese, my fasting blood sugar is 93 and my A1C is 5.0. I worried about a yoyo effect of gaining back the weight, however, that hasn't happened. I continue on a maintenance dose and I feel great.
