genuine question about A1c that I am slightly embarrassed to ask
Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud. The advice on metformin in this community changed substantially around the start of last…

comment on the appetite return thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/tapering · 12 points · 7 months ago
This is correct. Discontinuation data is real.
comment on tried sequence for 20 weeks. here is what happened. in c/bpc157 · 71 points · 7 months ago
How many weeks between the two measurements?
comment on switched from 15mg to 12.5mg and the reflux got better, not worse in c/semaglutide · 6 points · 7 months ago
Right, and the corollary is that stopping escalation does not reset your tolerance, it just pauses the clock.
comment on retatrutide vs triple agonist — genuinely asking which matters more in c/retatrutide · -18 points · 8 months ago
retatrutide is not approved anywhere for human use, posts must not read as instructions

the A1c change is the signal

This is correct. Hypo risk is real.
comment on am I the only one who found triple agonist harder than the injections in c/retatrutide · 1 points · 9 months ago
TRIUMPH data is phase 2, not phase 3, smaller n and shorter

no tracking numbers, no full addresses, no label photos — instant removal
comment on the CGM question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/t2dglp1 · 10 points · 9 months ago
Which country?
Adding to this: A1c is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on week 56 check-in — 31kg down, muscle cramps manageable, one thing confusing me in c/semaglutide · 369 points · 9 months ago
Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.
comment on tried interval stretching for 2 weeks. here is what happened. in c/tapering · 18 points · 9 months ago
How many weeks between the two measurements?
comment on reading Wegovy threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/semaglutide · 79 points · 9 months ago
Maintenance for 11 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.
comment on the TRIUMPH thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/retatrutide · 60 points · 10 months ago
Dose escalation on retatrutide is steeper and faster than on semaglutide. Do not assume the titration patterns transfer.

Did you actually measure heart rate or is that a feeling?
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 34 weeks to accept.

Research use material only, no human-use approval anywhere. Posts must describe what happened, not instruct strangers.

Right, the triple agonist question again, but with numbers this time. I have 15 data points over 16 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is…
comment on small win: titration stopped being a problem at week 41 in c/semaglutide · 64 points · 10 months ago
stalled at 2.4mg, went up, and regretted it, the stall would have broken anyway
comment on genuine question about tapering that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/tapering · 1 points · 11 months ago
Came off after 36 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
