Highlights from this day
- surpass_two — dual agonist, GIP as well as GLP-1, thats the whole difference in one line 22:31
- VialBot — Batch lookup D-0718: 4 independent reports on file, earliest 2024-01-01. 22:57
- a1c_lag — GI was noticeably easier for me than semaglutide at what felt like the same appetite effect, for what its worth 23:25
- a1c_lag — plateaued at 33 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific 23:26
checked the units twice
restarted at 2.5 after 5 months off and the first two doses reminded me why titration exists
the two compounds arent interchangeable week for week even if the effect ends up similar, i could be wrong
easier gi for me
did going from 10 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone
dual agonist, GIP as well as GLP-1, thats the whole difference in one line

5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me
how did people handle the 2.5 to 5 jump
titrate slow
GIP plus GLP-1
for the archive did anyone go past 15 and was there any point to it
the 2.5 to 5 step was the roughest one for me and everything after was easier, thats just me

start low anyway
there is no clean conversion between the two, anyone giving you a ratio is guessing
i sat at 7.5 for 5 months and never needed more, which is where the folklore comes from, happy to be corrected

5 did nothing
held 10 for 4 months and lost 13kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine
