i said 2 months ago that my heart rate had settled and it has stayed settled since

MS

came off at 21 weeks because my resting rate stayed elevated and i didnt like it
blood pressure stayed flat for me while heart rate moved, which i didnt expect

*PeptideMeter not the other one

back after 3 months, has anything actually been published since

MS

does the energy expenditure claim show up as anything you can feel

MS

coming back to this i was wrong to call the heart rate a non issue last year, enough people logged it that i changed my mind

VB

Batch lookup H-2814: 3 independent reports on file, earliest 2025-05-23.

i went up too fast, got a fortnight of nothing but nausea, and dropped back two steps

phase 2 doses are published and theyre not far off what people here run, coincidence rather than plan
lost 14kg over 18 months at doses well under what the trials used

stepping in 7.5 increments instead of doubling is the only thing i would change if i started again

GV

i log resting heart rate every morning because of this and its the one number i actually watch

for the archive appetite suppression at 1.7 was stronger than my tirzepatide experience at a comparable point

AA

reconstituted the 5 vial to 4mg/ml specifically so i could take 1 without measuring crumbs

why does everyone insist on smaller steps here than on the other two

AA

nobody should read my log as a plan, im recording what i did and thats all it is

sorry to jump in the glucagon arm is the mechanistic story for extra energy expenditure and its still a story to me

blood pressure stayed flat for me while heart rate moved, which i didnt expect

[edited]

whats a sensible starting point, im seeing everything from 0.5 to 2

did the phase 2 result actually come in higher than the tirzepatide numbers

smaller steps here

my resting rate went up 7 bpm in the first month and came back most of the way by month 21

for the archive buying this is a completely different risk conversation from the licensed compounds and that gets said too rarely

GV

low and slow here means smaller steps than i ever used on tirzepatide, thats the received wisdom

GV

right so triple agonist, GLP-1 and GIP and glucagon. the glucagon arm is the part with no long history

my resting heart rate is up about 6 bpm, did that settle for anyone

FN

the phase 2 weight result was larger than what the earlier agonists reported, in a smaller shorter trial, not advice obviously

FN

people insist on small steps because the side effects arrive faster than on the other two

triple agonist meaning GLP-1, GIP and glucagon, have i got that right

there is no long term safety data, phase 2 and an ongoing phase 3 programme is what exists, someone check my working

sorry to jump in the heart rate thing is real enough that i mention it whenever someone asks about starting

MS

TRIUMPH is the phase 3 programme, thats the name to search rather than the molecule

TRIUMPH is phase 3

HH

update on the earlier thing the half life supports weekly dosing and thats what ive done from the start

HH

coming back to this phase 2 was still trending at the end which is why the phase 3 readout matters more than usual

👀5❤️5

anyone stayed at 10 for months rather than climbing

HH

how do people square the research use only framing with logging their own use

the honest position is this has less human evidence behind it than anything else discussed here
stopped for 10 months and restarted at half my old dose, the ramp was easier second time
