is the glucagon arm what people mean by the energy expenditure thing

- sunday_shot — held at 12 for 15 months and it never plateaued for me, which i cant explain 00:45
- ghent_gradient — stepping in 10 increments instead of doubling is the only thing i would change if i started again 02:43
- marrow.mod — people insist on small steps because the side effects arrive faster than on the other two 03:32
- hard_stop_hal — is TRIUMPH the phase 3 programme 03:59
held at 12 for 15 months and it never plateaued for me, which i cant explain
baseline 58
wk 2 61
wk 4 64
wk 6 67
wk 8 66
wk 10 65 (held dose from wk 7)mine went up too
energy expenditure isnt something i could feel, though my sleep tracker disagreed with me
the glucagon arm is the mechanistic story for extra energy expenditure and its still a story to me
*Janoshik not the other one
reconstituted the 30 vial to 4mg/ml specifically so i could take 0.25 without measuring crumbs
stepping in 10 increments instead of doubling is the only thing i would change if i started again

anyone tracking blood pressure alongside the heart rate
while im here triple agonist, GLP-1 and GIP and glucagon. the glucagon arm is the part with no long history
no long term data
anyone stayed at 15 for months rather than climbing
Recon calculator: 10mg in 2ml = 2.5mg/ml.
appetite suppression at 12 was stronger than my tirzepatide experience at a comparable point
the heart rate thing is real enough that i mention it whenever someone asks about starting
people insist on small steps because the side effects arrive faster than on the other two
i was wrong to call the heart rate a non issue last year, enough people logged it that i changed my mind
how long before people saw the first change at 2
watching my heart rate
is TRIUMPH the phase 3 programme
smaller steps here
phase 2 doses are published and theyre not far off what people here run, coincidence rather than plan
Medutest came back 98.1 on one lot and 99.4 on the next from the same GGPeps, both fine
how do people square the research use only framing with logging their own use
