week 36 check-in — 27kg down, sulphur burps manageable, one thing confusing me
Right, the weekly dosing question again, but with numbers this time.
I have 9 data points over 40 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.
The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 82, not week 36. People give up long before the interesting part.
Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Cosigning. The slow route gets the outcome, the fast route gets you the side effects.
What was the method? "HPLC" is a technique, not a method.
Cosigning.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.
Went up because the scale stalled, not because I needed to. Do not be me. The stall broke on its own at the higher dose.
This matches my experience almost exactly on the Ozempic pens. The titration is the whole point.
Cosigning. The slow route gets the outcome, the fast route gets you the side effects.
Small correction: the trial was 14 weeks, not 17. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 22–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with Wegovy, not with what you concluded.
week 16 and i am still not at maintenance, do not rush the ladder
titration speed is weekly dosing plus side effects, period
nope, 0.25 counts, it is just not the dose most people stay on

Disagree on that part. 93.7% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.
my eGFR moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it
