help me understand appetite return, I have read the wiki twice
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful. Setup: 7.5mg, week 69, injection-site soreness present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one…

Came off deliberately and slowly. Regain was 4kg, not 24. Method matters.

comment on genuine question about regulatory that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/bpc157 · 26 points · 1 year ago
What are you comparing it against though?
comment on the ATTAIN thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/orforglipron · 2 points · 1 year ago
the supply conversation changes if this approves
comment on tried interval stretching for 3 weeks. here is what happened. in c/tapering · 3 points · 1 year ago
tapering instructions are not welcome here
Disagree on that part. 97.4% and 96.8% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Vendor] QST order #20 — Denmark, 39 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/tirzepatide · -34 points · 1 year ago
nope, the equivalence to semaglutide is not known, comparing 15mg tirz to 2.4mg sema is guessing
comment on [PSA] goal weight is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/maintenancephase · 1 points · 1 year ago
This is an urgent-care question wearing a forum question's clothes. Please contact a clinician rather than waiting for replies.
comment on [Results] 96 weeks on 2.4mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/maintenancephase · 93 points · 1 year ago
the lowest dose you can stay on is not the lowest dose that works
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.
comment on lowest effective dose is the most under-discussed thing in c/trialwatch in c/maintenancephase · 35 points · 1 year ago
How long at maintenance?
comment on tried tirzepatide for 24 weeks. here is what happened. in c/tirzepatide · 401 points · 1 year ago
No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
comment on my hs-CRP moved and I cannot work out whether Zepbound is why in c/tirzepatide · -26 points · 1 year ago

The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on anyone else notice long term kicking in around week 20 in c/maintenancephase · 208 points · 1 year ago
Strongly agree. Lowest effective dose is a real discovery process.
comment on help me understand appetite return, I have read the wiki twice in c/tapering · 5 points · 1 year ago
say how long you were on and at what dose before taper
Disagree on that part. 97.4% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.

Yeah, regain is not a failure.
comment on anyone else notice discontinuation kicking in around week 29 in c/tapering · 392 points · 1 year ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #7 — the Netherlands, 3 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/tapering · 29 points · 2 years ago
STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-4 discontinuation arms show regain
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on ATTAIN: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/orforglipron · 1 points · 2 years ago
Strongly agree. The supply impact would be huge.
