Yeah, showing the arithmetic is the fastest way for someone to spot the error.
comment on anyone else notice tirzepatide kicking in around week 20 in c/tirzepatide · 188 points · 1 year ago
Week 64 on Mounjaro and 32kg down. The appetite reduction feels different from sema in ways I do not have words for yet.

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

Reconstituted at 3mL when I meant 15mL. Caught it because the units looked wrong. Write the concentration.

Is that 20mg vial or 19mg?
Disagree on that part. 99.2% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.

Dead space ate 21 units on a low-volume draw. Tiny impact at 1.0mg, massive impact at 15mg.

the GIP side does different things than the GLP-1 side, that is the point
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify ranking in c/meta · 1 points · 1 year ago
the ranking formula is meta
comment on am I the only one who found GIP harder than the injections in c/tirzepatide · 135 points · 1 year ago
nope, the equivalence to semaglutide is not known, comparing 15mg tirz to 2.4mg sema is guessing

Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.

comment on [Discussion] timeframe is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/progresspics · 77 points · 1 year ago
The fatigue was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

SURMOUNT data is messier than STEP data but the weight loss is there
comment on genuine question about week one that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/newbiequestions · 184 points · 1 year ago
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
comment on 22 months in and timeframe is still the thing I get wrong in c/progresspics · 1 points · 1 year ago
the milestone milestone is worth posting
comment on 5 months in and protein is still the thing I get wrong in c/glp1muscle · 1 points · 1 year ago
Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #17 — Germany, 5 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/progresspics · 107 points · 1 year ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on small win: GIP stopped being a problem at week 41 in c/tirzepatide · 51 points · 1 year ago
do not crack the pen, we have been over this

Did you stay on semaglutide or switch? The outcome is different if you are comparing.
