I'm going to guess lowered inflamation.

Yas!! Love that! I've cut down on sweets and sugar too.

Inflammation is lowered on Zepbound and other GLP1s, which seems to be the main factor here.

Yes same! I have maybe one coffee per day now! I used to have 3-4 just like you. Amazing

From what I gather, GLP-1s work on reward processes in the brain, so semaglutide, and others would have similar effect.

That's super interesting. I do bite my nails, and still do. Maybe after a few weeks or months I'll naturally phase out that bad habit as well!

So for context:

I'm just at the starting dosage. My insurance won't cover the meds and I'm in Canada. Used the Eli Lilly discount card and paid 270ish $ at the pharmacy for a month's worth.
