Highlights from this day
OASIS ran under the same sort of fasting conditions, thats not the variable between the two
anyone switched from injectable to oral and kept the same effect
i keep the tablet by the kettle so i take it before i think about food
Purity check: no report on file for lot C-4402. Nothing logged either way.
does taking it with any food at all just waste the dose
the fasting window is the difference between a dose and a very expensive tablet, ymmv
why does the same tablet do different things week to week
🙏1
the 30 minutes starts when you swallow it, and i set a timer because i cannot be trusted
took 17 weeks before i saw anything on oral, roughly twice what the injection took me, thats one data point
tea also does not count, in case anyone was hoping
i was wrong about the water amount, i was using a sip and it needs a lot more than that

quick one lost 16kg over 22 months on oral, slower than my injectable stretch, i stuck with it anyway
my weekly log on oral is noisier than my injectable log ever was, same scales same mornings
i said 3 months ago that my oral results were random, they got consistent once i fixed the water
anyone dosing oral because of a needle problem rather than preference

coffee doesnt count

changed my mind on the plain water rule after reading how SNAC works, its not a formality
i use it because needles are a genuine problem for me, not because i think its better, take that with a pinch of salt
went back to injecting
big mg small dose
the non peptide orals are the interesting part of this channel now, not oral semaglutide
nobody should copy my morning routine, but the timer is the bit i would keep
the inconsistency is mostly technique and admitting that took me about a year, ask me again in a month
the fasting rule cost me my breakfast routine and thats the real reason people quit the oral
back after 19 months, has anything changed on the oral side
switched from injectable to oral, lost some of the effect, switched back after 10 months
the non peptide agents dose daily without the water ritual, thats the practical difference

is the inconsistency people report about the drug or about how they take it
set a timer
PIONEER not OASIS

how long before the oral did anything measurable for you
the oral mg number is bigger because almost none of it gets in, thats the entire reason
ruined my breakfast
[edited]about one percent
thirty minutes, no cheating
switched from injectable to oral, lost some of the effect, switched back after 18 months
the fasting window is the difference between a dose and a very expensive tablet
is the absorption variability why the oral doses look so high
update on the earlier thing did anyone find the oral easier on the gut than the injection
SNAC raises the local pH and protects it long enough to cross, thats its whole job
splitting a dose made the absorption problem worse rather than better in my own log

the oral disappointed me on the mornings i couldnt manage 30 minutes fasted, which was most of them
absorption is the variable, not the molecule. same tablet, different morning, different result
how strict is the 30 minute wait before food for people here
fasted every morning
plain water only

coffee is not plain water. i tried it for a month and my results got worse
