Dropped an £18 USB logger in the box. Full trace summarised: Segment Hours Max Note Origin to airport 9 9.1°C gel pack still solid In transit 26 21.4°C pack fully…
Took it out to draw, got distracted by a phone call, found it on the counter five hours later. Room temperature, maybe 21°C, out of direct light. It is reconstituted,…
Week 84 update. 25kg down from the start, reflux basically gone since about week 41. Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I want to.…

Vendor-level purity averages over time, built from independent results rather than vendor claims. Transparent methodology, open dataset.

Confession thread, sort of. I went from 0.25mg to 10mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 6 weeks…
Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: stability matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides…

Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud. The advice on cold chain in this community changed substantially around the start of last…
Week 77 update. 28kg down from the start, early fullness basically gone since about week 34. Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I…
packaging. That is the whole post, but I will justify it. Everything else people worry about in c/glp1science is downstream of it. Titration speed, reflux, the endless…
Right, the ice pack question again, but with numbers this time. I have 12 data points over 22 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance,…
Genuinely asking, not being difficult. Everyone in c/glp1aus repeats that cold chain is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I…
Week 3 update. 19kg down from the start, early fullness basically gone since about week 43. Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I…

Quick one. Canada here. data logger works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given…

Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom. I have been tracking ice pack against triglycerides for 29 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is…
