non-scale victory — my 20-week log, condensed into one table

Non-Scale Win Well Actually ×6

Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.

Setup: 7.5mg, week 87, injection-site soreness present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — struggle — and tracked it for 14 weeks.

Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.

Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.

This is correct. Process matters more than the number.

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

The early fullness was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

My version of this: I was so worried about the injection that I put it off for eleven days. The injection is the easiest part.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with milestone, not with what you concluded.

the struggle milestone is worth posting

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

text removes the body-shaming pile-on

Yeah, text-only removes the comparison.

About c/progresspics

Progress posts with no images, by design. Starting point, current point, timeframe, dose history, what changed besides the scale. Text-only removes the comparison trap, the body-shaming pile-on and the entire question of who owns a photo of your torso.
