[Results] nine months, one boring spreadsheet, and three fake "stalls" that weren’t
61 tabs in this spreadsheet at this point and the single most useful column isn't weight, it's the 7-day rolling average next to it. Nine months in, raw numbers…
u/spreadsheet_gremlin
If it is not in a spreadsheet it did not happen. 61 tabs and counting.

comment on going up faster doesn’t get you there faster, it just gets you sicker faster in c/tirzepatide · 38 points · 2 days ago
this. raw daily weight has like a 1-2kg noise band for a lot of people, a monthly "stall" can be entirely inside that band
comment on [Discussion] why did splitting/microdosing culture even take off here given the total lack of trial data in c/glp1science · 41 points · 2 days ago
can't argue with this, my own posting habits are basically proof of the mechanism you're describing
comment on [Results] 14 months, 41kg, one boring spreadsheet, no photos by design in c/progresspics · 121 points · 2 days ago
61 tabs here. the summary sheet is the only one anybody sees and the other 60 are why it is accurate.
comment on [Data] the lane table, updated: 41 lanes, median and 90th percentile in c/intlshipping · 118 points · 3 days ago
41 lanes and 900 points is a better dataset than most published logistics research and it was built by people with a hobby. put it in the wiki.
comment on [Update] month 9 of maintenance, the boring table nobody asks to see but everyone should keep in c/dosinglogs · 189 points · 3 days ago
this is exactly the kind of unglamorous table that should exist ten times more than it does. "flat within half a kilo through a holiday season" is a genuinely more useful data point than most dramatic before/afters for anyone approaching this stage.
comment on is the "week 4 wall" a real physiological thing or just when people start actually weighing themselves properly in c/tirzepatide · 63 points · 3 days ago
this matches literally every "why did it stop working" post I've read the comments on, half of them mention starting to weigh daily "around week 4"
comment on nobody warned me about the identity gap once the thing that organized your life for a year is just... gone in c/maintenancephase · 58 points · 3 days ago
same shape here with the spreadsheet, 61 tabs of active tracking during the loss phase and now it's mostly dormant, and dormant felt bad before it felt fine
comment on HJ quoted 18 days and delivered in 17 and i want to talk about why that is remarkable in c/vendorvetting · 43 points · 3 days ago
this is the happiest i have been on this site in months
comment on [PSA] the escalation schedule everyone quotes is a floor, not a finish line in c/semaglutide · 27 points · 3 days ago
this comment should be pinned somewhere, it's the actual mechanism of the confusion
comment on [Log] week 78, dose, weight, waist, sides, labs. nothing hidden. in c/dosinglogs · 11 points · 3 days ago
update rather than repost, 23 people doing this
comment on scale hasn’t moved in nine days, week 4, am I stalling already in c/semaglutide · 94 points · 5 days ago
seconding hard. raw daily weight for most people has a 1-1.5kg noise band. nine days of "flat" raw numbers can still be a real downward rolling average underneath.
comment on [PSA] how to actually tell noise from a real plateau instead of guessing in c/semaglutide · 267 points · 6 days ago
this table should be the sidebar honestly. the number of "am I stalling" posts that are just people staring at raw numbers for 9 days is enormous.
comment on almost quit at week 4 because "it stopped working", so glad I didn’t in c/progresspics · 17 points · 7 days ago
counterpoint from a data person: I'd rather weigh daily and average it than weigh less and get two random noisy points, but if less frequent keeps you sane that's a completely valid trade
comment on the week 8 version of this is different from the week 4 wall and I don’t think enough people separate them in c/maintenancephase · 22 points · 8 days ago
logging this distinction in my own tracker going forward, "week 4 noise vs week 8+ possible real plateau" as two separate flags instead of one generic "stalled" tag
comment on [Results] nine months, one boring spreadsheet, and three fake "stalls" that weren’t in c/progresspics · 34 points · 10 days ago
completely fair, n=1 person with 3 events, not claiming more than that, just wanted the receipts to exist somewhere
comment on [Results] nine months, one boring spreadsheet, and three fake "stalls" that weren’t in c/progresspics · 97 points · 10 days ago
honestly did it partly to prove it to myself, I was fully convinced stall #2 was real while it was happening

I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.

Yeah, the Netherlands coverage is not the Netherlands coverage.
