Highlights from this day

bench_notes — tea also does not count, in case anyone was hoping the 30 minutes starts when you swallow it, and i set a timer because i cannot be trusted 20:32
first_month_fi — changed my mind on the plain water rule after reading how SNAC works, its not a formality, ill dig out the number 21:00
bench_notes — the fasting window is the difference between a dose and a very expensive tablet 22:03

SNAC does the work

the fasting rule cost me my breakfast routine and thats the real reason people quit the oral

tea also does not count, in case anyone was hoping
the 30 minutes starts when you swallow it, and i set a timer because i cannot be trusted

the inconsistency is mostly technique and admitting that took me about a year, not advice obviously

took mine with breakfast once by accident and that week was a write off

unrelated but i do 6am with water and eat at 7, thats been my routine for 16 months

did anyone go back to injecting after trying oral

did anyone get consistent results on the oral or is it always patchy

set a timer

absorption is the variable, not the molecule. same tablet, different morning, different result

roughly one percent gets absorbed, which is why the tablet strength looks nothing like an injectable dose

*PeptideMeter not the other one

changed my mind on the plain water rule after reading how SNAC works, its not a formality, ill dig out the number

my weekly log on oral is noisier than my injectable log ever was, same scales same mornings

plain water only

❤️2🔥12

does SNAC do anything other than get it through the stomach

anyone tracking whether their oral results line up week to week

ruined my breakfast

PIONEER not OASIS

follow up switched from injectable to oral, lost some of the effect, switched back after 8 months

the fasting window is the difference between a dose and a very expensive tablet

oral was easier on my gut than injecting at what felt like a similar effect, which surprised me

genuine question splitting a dose made the absorption problem worse rather than better in my own log
