[Results] 96 weeks on 12.5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring

Lab Sourced ×8 Cold Box ×1 Slow Clap ×1

Week 27 update. 43kg down from the start, reflux basically gone since about week 79.

Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I want to. Things that did not: everything I bought on the internet to help with reflux.

The part that surprised me is how much of this is admin. Ordering, storing, logging, remembering. Nobody mentions that the hard bit is not the drug, it is the routine.

Happy to answer anything. Please do not ask me what dose you should be on.

The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.

redact your own name, not the vendor's batch details

What is the method line say? Not the technique, the actual method.

Sent one vial to Medutest and PeptideMeter. 98.3% and 98.4%. Cost me more than the vial did and I would do it again.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

replysharereportpermalink
u/tomas_lehtinen183 points·1 year ago

Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.

u/rania_okonkwo56 points·1 year ago·edited

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

post the whole document, not the headline number

replysharereportpermalink
u/blunt_coldbox29126 points·1 year ago

Strongly agree. Mass% and area% are answering different questions on the same document.

u/marisol_frisk96 points·1 year ago

no "is this good?" without saying what the compound and claimed purity are

u/milos_trevino75 points·1 year ago

Cosigning. The batch number is load-bearing information.

Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.

the method line is doing real work, not just window dressing

replysharereportpermalink
u/kavya_verhoeven21 points·1 year ago

This is the correct framing. The COA structure matters as much as the number.

replysharereportpermalink
u/tidy_vialdrawer_pls40 points·1 year ago

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

replysharereportpermalink
u/teodor_lokkenOP36 points·1 year ago

Water content on the document? That affects your concentration math.

the batch number or it did not happen

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

replysharereportpermalink
u/dario_vermeulen21 points·1 year ago

axis labels included, always

replysharereportpermalink
u/milos_vanhecke20 points·1 year ago

Batch number and date of analysis? Both are load-bearing.

Batch number and date of analysis?

Adding to this: purity is doing more work than the comment implies.

About c/coa

How to read a certificate of analysis and what it does and does not tell you. Area% versus mass%, identity versus quantity, water content, related substances, acetate counterions, and the difference between a vendor-supplied COA and an independent test on the vial you actually received.

c/coa rules
  1. Post the full document. Cropped COAs that hide the batch number or date get removed.
  2. Redact your own name and order id, not the vendor's batch details.
  3. No "is this good?" without saying what the compound and claimed purity are.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
