[Results] 67 weeks, 36kg, and plateau was the hard part

Resultsbranch of 14 comments

Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom. I have been tracking semaglutide against eGFR for 3 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is weaker than I expected, which is itself mildly interesting given how confidently people link the two in here. Caveats up front: one person, one lab, one…

Week 49 for me and the honest summary is: 35kg down, fatigue manageable, and the quiet happened around week 18.

Hard agree. Week 77 me needed this. Week 25 me is nodding smugly.

Cosigning. The slow route gets the outcome, the fast route gets you the side effects.

Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

c/semaglutide rules
  1. No requests for a personal dose recommendation — describe what you did, not what someone else should do.
  2. Results posts need a timeframe and a starting point, or they get removed as unverifiable.
  3. Brand, compounded and research-grade material are all on-topic. Sourcing requests are not — that is c/vendorvetting.
  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.
