comment on [Discussion] we are measuring customs at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/customs · 83 points · 1 year ago
Disagree.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

What colour is the pen? Wegovy and Ozempic use different formulations.

Lost 16kg and gained a genuinely irritating amount of interest in analytical chemistry. This site did that to me.

Stalled at 10mg, changed nothing, and it started moving again on week 18. Very nearly went up. Glad I did not.

Yeah, the denial code matters, it tells you what to fight.
comment on week 61 check-in — 46kg down, early fullness manageable, one thing confusing me in c/bloodwork · 373 points · 1 year ago

comment on what would you tell week-1 you about import in c/customs · 21 points · 1 year ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

Crossposting this to c/cagrilintide because the people who need it are not reading this community.
comment on [Vendor] QST order #12 — Denmark, 15 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/semaglutide · 31 points · 1 year ago
week 4 and i am still not at maintenance, do not rush the ladder

ferritin tanks quietly on a reduced appetite, check it
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about plateau until somebody posts a number in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 1 year ago
titration speed is 2.4mg plus side effects, period
comment on [Discussion] insulin resistance is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/glp1women · 57 points · 1 year ago
Maintenance for 14 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.

ALT is where the fatty-liver story shows up first
Disagree on that part. 96.8% and 96.2% on the same vial is normal.
comment on unpopular opinion: fraud is massively overrated in c/scamalerts · 58 points · 1 year ago
the reship offer that never sends anything is worth noting

The PeptideMeter results I got back showed 98.3% but MKM claimed 98.0%. Same vial, two services. I posted the receipts.

This is correct. ApoB is the better marker.
comment on small win: Ozempic stopped being a problem at week 70 in c/semaglutide · 90 points · 1 year ago
stalled at 1.7mg, went up, and regretted it, the stall would have broken anyway

my eGFR moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it
