bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting

- taste_changed — somebody talked me out of quitting at week three and i never said thank you properly 16:35
- VialBot — New independent result logged — SWB, lot A-2601, purity 99.4% (VendorInvestigate). 17:29
size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop
i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
genuine question cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
kept 13 of it off for 2 months now and that is the number i am actually proud of
the ring fitting again was worth more to me than any number on the scale ever was, we shall see
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug

Reminder set. I will post here in 7 days.
ok so somebody thanked me a year later for a two line message i do not remember writing and it has stayed with me

10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month, i have it written down somewhere
31 down in 6 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
somebody talked me out of quitting at week three and i never said thank you properly

follow up no side effects at all is a legitimate report and it belongs here as much as the hard ones do
unrelated but coming back after 17 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody
i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about
ring fitting is the best one
[edited]i was down 21 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure, thats one data point
i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
how do you say youre pleased in here without it sounding like an advert
week three nearly finished me and im at month 19 now, does anyone want the boring version
while im here does the room want the numbers or just the story

keep going
the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part
brilliant a1c
👀9
thats a big drop
a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
for the archive STEP 1 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better, anyway
blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets
*Medutest not the other one
thats not showing off
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know
🙏3
congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother
nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 21 now

the stairs thing yeah
*PeptideMeter not the other one
