Highlights from this day
- VialBot — New independent result logged — SSA, lot F-1330, purity 98.6% (VendorInvestigate). 21:27
- factory_direct_fi — going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution 21:36
- redefine_ren — STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it, we shall see 22:05
- noct.titrate — whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers 22:23
- noct.titrate — my dose day drifted from friday to sunday, does that reset anything 23:13
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
the appetite effect faded for me around 25 months and going up fixed it for a while

i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
9 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half

FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure, still working it out
SELECT wasnt weight
how many weeks before you noticed anything at 5
i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication
held at 7.5 and lost 40lb over 22 months, slower than the trials and fine by me
quick one anyone gone from 2 straight to 10 or is that too big a jump
sorry to jump in STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers
how did people handle the jump from 1 to 1.7
my Medutest report on the Homopeptide vial came back 98.1 against a certificate saying 99.2
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters
vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong

lost about 41kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
im at 12 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
how long did the first 42kg take for people at the low doses
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
i held at 0.25 for 9 months and it was the best decision i made
whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers

five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt
same dose day
the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip

compounded and brand felt the same to me at 0.25, which is one person and nothing more
[edited]thats STEP 1

did anyone titrate slower than four weeks a step and how did that go

plateaus move

not the same trial
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose

vials not pens here

did anybody find a difference between FGP and pharmacy at the same 7.5
my dose day drifted from friday to sunday, does that reset anything

does moving my dose day by two days matter with a seven day half life
2.4 is the ceiling
back after 22 months off, do i restart at 0.25 or somewhere higher
brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel
