comment on am I the only one who found testing harder than the injections in c/vendorvetting · -29 points · 6 months ago
First order from FGP was great, second one had a different batch and tested lower. The vendor retested and credited me. Logged it here.

Batch number?
Disagree on that part. 97.9% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.
comment on goal weight: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/maintenancephase · 59 points · 6 months ago
Regain on a taper is expected. 23% back over 13 weeks, which matches the discontinuation data. Planned for it.

one vendor per post, multi-vendor goes in the monthly thread

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

Went through three vendors to find one that actually ships on-time and tests clean. The answer was MKM.

Reship experience: Homopeptide asked for photos, processed it in 23 days, sent a replacement no questions. That is the template.
comment on switched from 1.0mg to 0.5mg and the injection-site soreness got better, not worse in c/maintenancephase · 59 points · 6 months ago
food noise returns but not always immediately
comment on [Results] 7 weeks, 30kg, and STEP was the hard part in c/trialwatch · 23 points · 7 months ago
Phase 2 TRIUMPH looked amazing. Phase 3 trials are harder. Do not anchor on phase 2 readouts.

the discontinuation arms are the interesting part, not the FLOW endpoints

STEP 1 readout: 94.2% mean weight loss, absolute numbers matter. Spread around that mean is enormous.
comment on [Discussion] goal weight is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/maintenancephase · 18 points · 7 months ago
regain after taper is expected, plan for it

Tried the lowest-effective approach. 7.5mg worked for 13 weeks, then cravings returned. 2.4mg was the actual floor.

Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

gas versus discount arithmetic is real

Gas was crypto on Polygon so I used BCH instead. Confirmation in 5 blocks, vendor credited, done.

the 4% discount versus 40% network fees
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify crypto in c/cryptopay · 17 points · 9 months ago
confirmations are USDC, the exchange rate at 18 blocks is the deal
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify crypto in c/cryptopay · 13 points · 9 months ago
confirmations are gas fees, the exchange rate at 14 blocks is the deal
comment on Denmark: identity, and what it actually costs here in c/researchpeptides · 181 points · 9 months ago
Week 55 for me and the honest summary is: 4kg down, muscle cramps manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.
