Thanks for allowing me to join. I came here to educate myself and learn from all the knowledge here. I've been on a 15 year weight loss journey that started with me being up to 430lbs and currently has me around 270lbs. As my forum handle suggests I'm super tired of the yo you effect that has been prominent on my journey. I lose a bunch of weight gain some back ad nauseam. Most recently my PCP prescribed me Ozembic to help counter the yo yo and after I was on it for 8 weeks my insurance decided they wouldn't cover it. I was down to 235 at at that point. I was 5lbs from my 200lbs weigh loss goal so you can imagine my frustration with myself during my current upswing. After cruising around other sites and checking out alternatives to the non- insurance covered GLP-1's I was pointed in the direction of this forum and after reading through some things I feel like this will be a great place to learn. I look forward to getting to know you all and looking forward to your potential guidance.
