Non-Scale Win Receipts ×8 Long Haul ×3

Been lurking in c/orforglipron for about 17 months and finally have something worth posting.

Short version: week 6, 2.5mg, and milestone is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 21 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.

What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 12.

Genuine question — what concentration were you at?

Came off after 47 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.

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

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.
