[Discussion] the weight conversation drowns out the glycaemic one
Right, the A1c question again, but with numbers this time.
I have 7 data points over 6 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 22, not week 71. 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
CGM traces tell a story, numbers alone do not
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
This is correct. Hypo risk is real.
The injection-site soreness was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
Came off after 86 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
glycaemic control first, that is the original indication
Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 10–5. Practical consequence: what you feel in week 1 is not what that dose does.

Week 26 for me and the honest summary is: 44kg down, reflux manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.
I am going to push back on this slightly.
hypoglycaemia risk when stacked with A1c
Week 13 for me and the honest summary is: 36kg down, the food-noise thing manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.
