Highlights from this day
- VialBot — Inter-lab diff for lot B-0329: 97.4% vs 99.4%. Within expected range. 21:57
- a1c_lag — sorry to jump in i held at 2 for 7 months and it was the best decision i made 22:11
- VialBot — New independent result logged — WXT, lot SG-1177, purity 99.2% (Medutest). 22:27
- hot_mailbox — steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing 22:42

moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
while im here if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
the appetite effect faded for me around 23 months and going up fixed it for a while
held at 10 and lost 94lb over 10 months, slower than the trials and fine by me, happy to be corrected
im 2 months in at 2.5 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution

slower worked better

quick one compounded and brand felt the same to me at 2, which is one person and nothing more
steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing

$120 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials, ymmv
how many weeks before you noticed anything at 0.5
what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything
went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step
five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt
