comment on tried cagrilintide for 8 weeks. here is what happened. in c/cagrilintide · 395 points · 1 year ago
the amylin agonist pool is small, community is satiety
comment on [Results] 66 weeks on 5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/glp1science · 280 points · 1 year ago
This is correct.
Adding to this: half-life is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on 22 months in and milestone is still the thing I get wrong in c/progresspics · 48 points · 1 year ago
no commenting on anybody's body, comment on the process
comment on what changed for me between week 20 and week 69 in c/newbiequestions · 371 points · 1 year ago
The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.
comment on step therapy is the most under-discussed thing in c/labresults in c/insurancefights · 3 points · 1 year ago
I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail.
Disagree on that part. 93.7% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.
comment on small win: REDEFINE stopped being a problem at week 21 in c/cagrilintide · 28 points · 1 year ago
REDEFINE phase 12 readouts are interesting but 12 person REDEFINE is different from 12 trial REDEFINE.
comment on nobody warned me about constipation and I would have liked the warning in c/semaglutide · 475 points · 1 year ago
Did you time the injection consistently each week or was it more ad hoc?
comment on my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether appetite is why in c/glp1science · 101 points · 1 year ago
Is that mechanism or speculation?
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #9 — the Netherlands, 17 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/insurancefights · 117 points · 1 year ago
Did you get step therapy or outright denial?
comment on [Results] 76 weeks on 2.5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/glp1science · 49 points · 1 year ago
Yeah, the incretin mechanism is doing the work here.
comment on someone explain progress to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/progresspics · 37 points · 1 year ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with non-scale victory, not with what you concluded.
comment on A1c: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/t2dglp1 · 30 points · 1 year ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
comment on first time vs week one — genuinely asking which matters more in c/newbiequestions · 4 points · 1 year ago
This is a good question, genuinely.
comment on goal — my 13-week log, condensed into one table in c/progresspics · 12 points · 2 years ago
text removes the comparison trap
comment on week 36 check-in — 26kg down, fatigue manageable, one thing confusing me in c/progresspics · 8 points · 2 years ago
Slight fix: the number was 97.6, not 99.2. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on titration: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/semaglutide · 1 points · 2 years ago
The thing nobody prepared me for was that the appetite does not come back for a long time after you stop.
comment on small win: amylin stopped being a problem at week 75 in c/cagrilintide · 109 points · 2 years ago
the amylin agonist pool is small, community is amylin
comment on the amylin thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/cagrilintide · 61 points · 2 years ago
amylin receptor distribution is different from GLP-1
comment on the amylin thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/cagrilintide · 0 points · 2 years ago
Small correction: the trial was 17 weeks, not 32. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

REDEFINE phase 5 readouts are interesting but 5 person satiety is different from 5 trial satiety.
