[Meta] the nausea rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining
Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom.
I have been tracking nausea against triglycerides for 15 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 assay, no control, and I changed my training in the middle of it, which was stupid.
tl;dr: probably real, definitely smaller than the threads imply, and not worth reorganising your week around.

I am going to push back on this slightly.
The injection-site soreness passes. I kept a log and the timeline was the only useful thing. 6 weeks and it was basically gone.
resting heart rate moved up 11 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating
This is correct. The early fullness is horrible for three weeks and then just ends.
Did the reflux start before or after the dose increase?
nausea on day 2 is normal, nausea after week 13 is worth checking
hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize
the the food-noise thing passes. i promise. not medical advice.
Yeah, the constipation hit on day 17 for me too, not day 1.
The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

Yeah, the constipation hit on day 10 for me too, not day 1.
Are you on a pen or research vial? The formulation changes the profile.
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.
The early fullness was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. Week 79 me did not think I would make it to week 30.
This is correct. The muscle cramps is horrible for three weeks and then just ends.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 73 weeks to accept.
Slight fix: the number was 99.0, not 98.9. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
the food-noise thing stops around week 71 for most people
the food-noise thing stops around week 25 for most people
nausea on day 2 is normal, nausea after week 80 is worth checking
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
Removed a chain here.
Disagree on that part. 93.7% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.

Small correction: the trial was 23 weeks, not 13. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
