Highlights from this day
  • eat_more_please — absorption is the variable, not the molecule. same tablet, different morning, different result 08:12
  • mg_per_ml — orforglipron is a small molecule rather than a peptide, which is why the fasting conditions differ 09:31
  • eat_more_please — my oral results were inconsistent week to week and i eventually decided it was me, not the tablet, n of 1 obviously 10:44
  • thirty_one_g — the 30 minutes starts when you swallow it, and i set a timer because i cannot be trusted, anyway 10:56
TO

follow up coffee is not plain water. i tried it for a month and my results got worse

TO

nobody should copy my morning routine, but the timer is the bit i would keep

EM

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

HM

took 31 weeks before i saw anything on oral, roughly twice what the injection took me

MP

orforglipron is a small molecule rather than a peptide, which is why the fasting conditions differ

EM

switched from injectable to oral, lost some of the effect, switched back after 22 months

fasted every morning

i use it because needles are a genuine problem for me, not because i think its better
