How Lorraine Started Waking Up Ready to Go

Summary

Lorraine had been at the gym five days a week for about a year and a half, tracking her food and water with a nutritionist, and getting nowhere. After nine months the nutritionist told her that maybe she was just supposed to be that weight. She had been on levothyroxine for a thyroid disorder for roughly 20 years, and her levels had never settled. She was tired, foggy, and sluggish. A Facebook ad brought her to Med Matrix, where she met Dr. Sasha Rose and, after real hesitation about taking medication, started hormone replacement therapy and a GLP-1. Six months in she reports sleeping better, thinking more clearly, and waking up ready to go.

• Told by that nutritionist that maybe she was just supposed to be this weight
• Starting to regain weight she had already lost, even while eating the way they had determined
• Really tired a lot
• A lot of brain fog
• Sluggish, and not feeling better despite all the work she was putting in at the gym
• A thyroid disorder treated with levothyroxine for about 20 years, with levels that were never normal and a dose that kept going up and down
