checked the units twice

- lot_number_lou — quick one at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that 13:57
- ring_size_down — i argued the sweet spot was nonsense and then spent 10 months at 7.5 not needing more 14:41
- ring_size_down — SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an… 15:56
- truncation_tru — slightly off topic but SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up 16:02
- ring_size_down — 40 units of a 10 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time held 10 for 25 months and lost 44kg over that stretch, slow and boring and… 16:21
dual agonist, GIP as well as GLP-1, thats the whole difference in one line, still working it out
the 15 vial in 1.5ml gives 8mg/ml which puts 7.5 on 25 units, nice round numbers

5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me
switched from 1.7 semaglutide and started at 2.5, took the slow route, never regretted it
titrate slow
at 2.4 my appetite went completely and i dropped back a step, eating nothing isnt a win
went back to semaglutide after 4 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI
i argued the sweet spot was nonsense and then spent 10 months at 7.5 not needing more
easier gi for me
SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted
changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an outcome
whats the top licensed dose, 15 or does it go higher
slightly off topic but SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up
12 did nothing extra over 10 for me and that still holds a year later
10 was enough
the sweet spot thing is survivorship, the people it worked for stayed and said so
start low anyway
40 units of a 10 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time
held 10 for 25 months and lost 44kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine
