why does nobody talk about lipids

Concerning Receipts ×8

Week 59 update. 40kg down from the start, muscle cramps basically gone since about week 4.

Things that worked: consistency, protein at breakfast, walking more than I want to. Things that did not: everything I bought on the internet to help with muscle cramps.

The part that surprised me is how much of this is admin. Ordering, storing, logging, remembering. Nobody mentions that the hard bit is not the drug, it is the routine.

Happy to answer anything. Please do not ask me what dose you should be on.

Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.

triglycerides from 6 to 39 is movement, not noise

Strongly agree. ALT is where you catch the liver story early.

ALT is where the fatty-liver story shows up first

HOMA-IR is crude but free and useful for tracking

Yeah, baseline matters more than any later number.

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

Disagree on that part. 97.4% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.

ApoB over LDL-C, that is the hierarchy

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

About c/bloodwork

What to measure before you start, what to re-measure, and how to interpret movement without panicking. ApoB over LDL-C, HOMA-IR as a crude free tool, ALT and the fatty-liver story, eGFR noise during rapid loss, and the deficiencies that a 1,100-calorie appetite will hand you.
