no medication-stopping advice, ever

Strongly agree. API source transparency matters.

I am going to push back on this slightly.

steps the missing variable in your writeup, were those steady through the "stall" too? asking because that's usually the other thing that quietly drops and undercuts a recomp story.

steps matter here too but differently, NEAT can drop when someone's more fatigued from lifting sessions, worth checking that isn't quietly offsetting the training benefit

curious whether steps were part of what slipped too or just protein and sleep, asking because that's usually the third one in this cluster

This is the correct method framing. Column and gradient are load-bearing fields.

API source questions are on-topic and compounders dodging them is newsworthy

positive and negative reports both need the same evidence standard

Mechanistically the bit that matters is DEXA.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 76 weeks to accept.

Week 3 for me and the honest summary is: 31kg down, reflux manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.

Mechanistically the bit that matters is DEXA.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Small correction: the trial was 12 weeks, not 38. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

telehealth costs telehealth plus compounding markup, total varies

no supplement selling, no coaching solicitation

integration decision on a shoulder changes your number by half a point on its own

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

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

Strongly agree. Largest single impurity tells a different story than total purity.

the batch number or it did not happen
