Graded #292 · C
Strengths
- Transparent pricing before you commit — compounded semaglutide from $179/mo, tirzepatide from $269/mo, oral GLP-1 from $209/mo (annual plan)
- Free screening with a one-time $99 program fee that is fully refunded if a clinician can't prescribe ('Approved, or Your $99 Back')
- Monthly price bundles a lab panel (CMP, A1c, lipids, TSH), unlimited clinician access, bi-weekly care coaching and a 24/7 Care Line
- Runs under Weightstry, LLC, a LegitScript-certified practice with an independently verifiable seal, a named support email and phone
- Full compounded lineup — weekly injection, daily oral tablet and microdosing options
Where it loses points
- Month-to-month pricing is notably higher than the annual plan ($249 vs $179 semaglutide, $339 vs $269 tirzepatide)
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name (Wegovy/Zepbound) options
- Framed for women 40+, and serves 49 states rather than all 50 (the excluded state isn't disclosed publicly)
- Works with state-licensed compounding pharmacies but doesn't name a specific pharmacy partner on the Fitstry page
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-reviewed or approved — a different evidence and regulatory tier than brand-name
Graded #172 · C
Strengths
- Co-founded by obesity-medicine specialist Dr. Angela Fitch
- Branded FDA-approved GLP-1s (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Saxenda)
- Official LillyDirect provider and Novo Wegovy-pill telehealth partner

- Weight-inclusive care with dietitians and health coaches
Where it loses points
- Specific self-pay monthly medication prices not transparently posted
- In-person clinics limited to four metro areas
- Branded-only focus can mean higher cost than compounded routes
