[Question] New Zealand — has anyone got a straight answer on lipids
eGFR. That is the whole post, but I will justify it. Everything else people worry about in c/orforglipron is downstream of it. Titration speed, early fullness, the…

Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: eGFR matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have…

three years of glycaemic control threads, summarised so you do not have to read them
Confession thread, sort of. I went from 1.7mg to 0.25mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 7 weeks…

[Question] A1c 5.6 but CGM says otherwise. which do i believe.

week 6 check-in — 47kg down, the food-noise thing manageable, one thing confusing me
