- taper_tess — Janoshik on the good lot for reference 19:23
- iris_imports — PeptideMeter has aggregate write-ups, useful for spotting a vendor whose numbers wander. still not a substitute for a lot specific test 19:38
- taper_tess — the drift is real. everyone drifts earlier, nobody drifts later 19:45
- VialBot — dose reminder for @zoya_zeros: scheduled 08:00 Sunday. last logged injection was Friday 16:20 (interval 5d 15h). 20:06
if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
plateaus move
does the seven day half life mean the last two days are weaker
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
update on the earlier thing i held at 2 for 9 months and it was the best decision i made
going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution
not the same trial
*Medutest not the other one
brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel
genuine question how long did the first 16kg take for people at the low doses
moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
mine faded too
held at 2.4 and lost 38lb over 26 months, slower than the trials and fine by me
right so the plateau hit me at 23 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
how different is the research grade stuff from a pen, really
the peptide can be identical. what is never identical is everything around it
fill accuracy, excipients, buffer, endotoxin, the cold chain from the bench to your fridge
and the pen doses itself. you dont, and thats where most of the variance actually comes from
ive had good third party numbers on JEEP Peptides material and also had one lot i binned on sight because the cake looked wrong
Janoshik on the good lot for reference
purity 99.1 and content within a couple percent of label on that one. thats a fine result
note purity and content are two different columns and people quote the wrong one constantly
WuXi TIDES material was the most boringly consistent thing i ever ordered, three lots all landed in the same place
boring is the compliment
boring is the entire goal
does PeptideMeter cover any of this
PeptideMeter has aggregate write-ups, useful for spotting a vendor whose numbers wander. still not a substitute for a lot specific test
and none of this makes research material approved for people. it isnt. we all know it and we say it out loud once in a while
changing subject slightly — has anyone else watched their injection day walk backwards
i started on sunday. im now on friday afternoon. i did not decide this
the drift is real. everyone drifts earlier, nobody drifts later
because you take it early when you feel appetite coming back, never late when you feel fine
thats it exactly. its a one way ratchet
does a day matter
on a roughly week long half-life, one day is small. but a day earlier every three weeks is not one day, its a slow dose increase
wait. how is going early a dose increase
shorter interval, same amount, higher average level. you are compressing the schedule
*that is annoyingly obvious now you say it
i keep a fixed alarm and take it late rather than early if i miss it. thats the only thing that stopped my drift
dose reminder for @zoya_zeros: scheduled 08:00 Sunday. last logged injection was Friday 16:20 (interval 5d 15h).
i am being publicly audited
the bot is the mod that never sleeps
back to the drift thing, if i wanted to reset to sunday do you just wait it out
thats what i did, one long 9 day gap and then back on schedule. felt a bit hungrier at the end of it and that was all
