[Question] mechanism — what am I missing here

Question

Week 87 update. 13kg down from the start, muscle cramps basically gone since about week 32.

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 muscle cramps.

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.

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.

Small correction: the trial was 24 weeks, not 11. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
