[Discussion] VendorInvestigate is doing more work than we give it credit for

Discussion

Week 23 update. 19kg down from the start, early fullness basically gone since about week 63.

Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I want to. Things that did not: everything I bought on the internet to help with early fullness.

The part that surprised me is how much of this is admin. Ordering, storing, logging, remembering. Nobody mentions that the hard bit is not the drug, it is the routine.

Happy to answer anything. Please do not ask me what dose you should be on.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 25 weeks to accept.

The Janoshik and Medutest numbers on the same vial from JEEP came back 97.6% and 97.9%. Both are right, inter-lab variance is real.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

About c/vendorvetting

The community due-diligence desk. Vendor experiences, independent third-party test results, shipping and reship records, and the boring paperwork that separates a supplier from a story. Every substantive claim is expected to carry a receipt: an order id, a dated screenshot, or a test report from Janoshik, Medutest, PeptideMeter or VendorInvestigate.
