Highlights from this day
  • VialBot — Inter-lab diff for lot A-2418: 97.4% vs 99.2%. Within expected range. 17:05
  • panel_before_after — the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance 17:58
  • bex_bloods — unrelated but careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two 19:05
  • bex_bloods — i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did 19:07
  • bex_bloods — nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 18 now, we shall see 19:11
RS

i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything

RS

congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother, we shall see

PP

repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in

PP

honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug

PP

i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust

week three nearly finished me and im at month 25 now, does anyone want the boring version

i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it

a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it

unrelated but careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two

coming back after 19 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody

my knees stopped hurting around 21 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage

down 29 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine, anyway

GB

STEP 4 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better, someone check my working

somebody talked me out of quitting at week three and i never said thank you properly
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it

how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
