Exercise transformation with training: went from barely able to walk a block to completing a 5K last month.
My fitness journey alongside GLP-1 therapy:
- Month 1-2: Walking 15 min/day
- Month 3-4: Walking 30-45 min, started bodyweight exercises
- Month 5-6: Joined a gym, started resistance training
- Month 7+: Running, lifting heavy, yoga for fun
The weight loss made movement possible. The movement made more weight loss possible. Virtuous cycle in action.

Did your prescriber agree with that reading, and if not what was their objection?

Correct, and worth adding that it is reversible. Nothing being described here is a one-way door, which changes how cautious it is reasonable to be.
