[Results] 16 weeks on 15mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring
Been lurking in c/survodutide for about 22 months and finally have something worth posting.
Short version: week 92, 12.5mg, and food noise is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 31 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 3.

pens are overpriced, research vials are research grade, same molecule different price
Hard agree. Week 69 me needed this. Week 23 me is nodding smugly.
the quiet is real. the food noise just stops.
Slight fix: the number was 96.2, not 96.8. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
Mechanistically the bit that matters is titration. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.

Disagree on that part. 98.4% and 98.3% on the same vial is normal.
Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.
my TSH moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it

week 85 on the pen, 13kg down, this is the answer
