Highlights from this day
- fasting_insulin — coming back to this i stayed on 1.7 for 16 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it, from memory 15:08
- a1c_lag — did anybody find a difference between QSC and pharmacy at the same 0.25 15:53
- fasting_insulin — quick one if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule 15:57
- a1c_lag — SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial, from memory 16:35
- a1c_lag — compounded and brand felt the same to me at 1, which is one person and nothing more FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt… 17:26

going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution, i could be wrong
did anybody find a difference between QSC and pharmacy at the same 0.25
went too fast once
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose
quick one if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule

how many weeks before you noticed anything at 2.4
restarted after 7 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time
i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial, from memory
slower worked better

not the same trial
did anyone titrate slower than four weeks a step and how did that go
compounded and brand felt the same to me at 1, which is one person and nothing more
FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure
