I use the telehealth JoinFridays for my GLP-1 weight loss, and I have been incredibly happy with it. I am on compound tirzepatide and am now at my goal weight having lost 30 pounds. I actually switched to Join Fridays from a different GLP-1 telehealth, and I’m so glad I did.

I began researching GLP-1s for weight loss and decided to go for it after a solid year of trying to get to a healthier weight without success. I was having very frustrating PCOS symptoms, and I am also a heart disease patient. My BMI was right at 27 and prior to my two pregnancies, I actually did not have a history of being overweight. My body felt very unhealthy, and I knew I wanted to try these groundbreaking medicines.
I started using a different telehealth that had been recommended to me without looking too much at the other telehealths out there. That telehealth was fine, but after a month or so I started researching other programs. I did a deep dive into GLP-1 telehealths, and in my research, I found that JoinFridays really is the best. They have great clinical support, happy customers, and some of the best compound prices you can find anywhere. So, I decided to switch.
JoinFridays has an intake form where you fill out your health information. They will prescribe GLP-1 medications for qualifying patients with a BMI of at least 27. If you are below that because you haven already started a GLP-1 treatment elsewhere, you just have to give them your starting weight and some sort of documentation of your prior treatment. You can choose to move forward and be prescribed medication just based on your intake form, or you can schedule a video visit. I like to do the video visits. I can talk to my provider about my health goals and get my specific questions answered.
If you wish for JoinFridays to send a prior authorization to your insurance to try to get the name-brand medicines like Wegovy or Zepbound covered, your provider can get that started for you. They have a whole team dedicated to helping people get these medications covered. If your insurance will cover any of the name brands, JoinFridays will send the prescription to your local pharmacy. They can also go back and forth between name brands and compounds if you are having issues getting your medication because of shortages.
My insurance does not cover GLP-1s at all, so I use the compounds. I use tirzepatide over semaglutide because it is shown to have slightly more weight loss and fewer side effects. I was amazed by JoinFriday’s compound prices. They are seriously crazy good. Their prices are so low because JoinFridays has long-term contracts with compounding pharmacies. JoinFridays only works with state-regulated compound pharmacies that provide medical-grade medications.
In addition to the medication and provider appointments, using JoinFridays gets you access to weekly group coaching sessions for nutrition, fitness, or mindset. Their experts even have office hours for you to get your specific concerns addressed. JoinFridays also gets you access to the SESH Fitness app where you can track your food and get GLP-1 specific workouts.
