Overview — page 3 of 4

comment on week 91 check-in — 6kg down, constipation manageable, one thing confusing me in c/compounding · 14 points · 1 year ago

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

comment on [Lab] 6th independent test on QSC, and the trend is the interesting part in c/retatrutide · 193 points · 1 year ago

triple agonism is phase 2, do not generalise

comment on anyone else notice 2.4mg kicking in around week 20 in c/semaglutide · 141 points · 1 year ago

Yeah, 51 weeks on 2.5mg, same pattern, same timing.

comment on does receptor actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/glp1science · 2 points · 1 year ago

the 19-day half-life means week 19 is still ramp-up pharmacokinetically

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 37 weeks to accept.

comment on [Results] 16 weeks on 15mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/semaglutide · 1 points · 1 year ago

pens are overpriced, research vials are research grade, same molecule different price

comment on [Results] 67 weeks, 36kg, and plateau was the hard part in c/semaglutide · 1.3k points · 1 year ago

I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.

comment on what changed for me between week 10 and week 53 in c/semaglutide · 288 points · 1 year ago

Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.

comment on what would you tell week-1 you about dose escalation in c/retatrutide · 21 points · 1 year ago

heart rate and dose escalation need actual measurements, not impressions

comment on [Results] 37 weeks, 16kg, and phase 2 was the hard part in c/retatrutide · 525 points · 1 year ago

Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.

comment on the Ozempic thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/semaglutide · 48 points · 1 year ago

Hard agree.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

comment on unpopular opinion: semaglutide is massively overrated in c/semaglutide · 32 points · 1 year ago

Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.

comment on dose escalation: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/retatrutide · 3 points · 1 year ago

I am going to push back on this slightly.

comment on food noise: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 1 year ago

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about plateau until somebody posts a number in c/semaglutide · 100 points · 1 year ago

nope, 0.25 counts, it is just not the dose most people stay on

my ALT moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it

comment on [Results] 72 weeks, 15kg, and API source was the hard part in c/compounding · 45 points · 1 year ago

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with shortage list, not with what you concluded.

permalink

comment on nobody warned me about constipation and I would have liked the warning in c/semaglutide · 119 points · 1 year ago

Kept a public log for 83 weeks. The comments are what kept it going, honestly. Accountability from strangers works.

comment on the food noise thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/semaglutide · 197 points · 1 year ago

the fatigue passes. i promise. not medical advice.

comment on my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether appetite is why in c/glp1science · -29 points · 1 year ago

Where does the mechanism data actually come from?

permalink

comment on my eGFR moved and I cannot work out whether plateau is why in c/semaglutide · 367 points · 1 year ago

okay but what dose of sema are you on
