What Happened After a Year of Peptides

A year ago, Elisabeth McKay made a decision she never thought she’d make.

After years of managing lupus symptoms, inflammation, migraines, hormonal dysfunction, and unexplained weight gain through diet, exercise, and lifestyle interventions, her body stopped responding to everything that had worked before.

In this episode of Decoded, Elisabeth shares her full one-year peptide update, including what happened after microdosing tirzepatide, coming off of it completely, and eventually returning after autoimmune symptoms and inflammation resurfaced.

FYI -This is not a weight-loss story.

This is a conversation about chronic inflammation, autoimmune disease, hormones, stress, recovery, and what happens when your body finally starts responding again.

In this episode, Elisabeth discusses:

• Her history with lupus and autoimmune symptoms

• The role stress played in inflammation and weight gain

• Why traditional fitness approaches stopped working

• Her experience microdosing tirzepatide for a full year

• What happened when she stopped taking it

• Protein, electrolytes, and nutrition considerations
