Yes, let's REALLY "make America healthy again" by treating the disease of obesity like any other chronic disease. I've lost 28% of my body weight on semaglutide that I've paid for out of pocket and I'm 5 pounds from my goal. I'm grateful for compounded drugs as otherwise I wouldn't have had a source, but moving forward it's all about maintenance, just like blood pressure or diabetes. I shouldn't be penalized because I need pharmaceutical metabolic and hormonal correction to achieve and maintain a normal weight.

Thank you so much, Dave. I am very fortunate in that my two senators are Alex Padilla and Adam Schiff, and I know they are very concerned with Californians' health. I have just sent them both emails, and I'm looking forward to hearing from them. Keep up the impactful work you're doing!
