am I the only one who found normal harder than the injections

Discussion Slow Clap ×9 Receipts ×2

Week 93 update. 34kg down from the start, reflux basically gone since about week 38.

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 reflux.

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.

what is titration — it means going slow on the escalation

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

Adding to this: week one is doing more work than the comment implies.

Small correction: the trial was 19 weeks, not 36. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

This is a good question, genuinely.

The injection was scarier than the what is itself. 11 seconds and I was shocked it was the easiest part.

u/lina_bruun-23 points·3 months ago

Yeah, that is totally normal for week 9.

u/farid_jansen57 points·3 months ago

Mechanistically the bit that matters is normal. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.

Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

About c/newbiequestions

The deliberately gentle community. Every question that gets an eye-roll elsewhere lives here: what does titration mean, why do I feel nothing in week two, is this normal, what is bac water, what is a COA. Rudeness is removed faster than bad questions.
