Highlights from this day
- maintenance_mo — while im here size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop, not advice obviously 20:25
- VialBot — Testing queue: 7 submissions open, 60 awaiting dispatch. 21:07
- first_month_fi — nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 4 now 21:20
- first_month_fi — went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason 21:33
- typosquat_tay — please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it 23:30
i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about

sorry to jump in my knees stopped hurting around 32 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage
for the archive 17 down in 8 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
somebody talked me out of quitting at week three and i never said thank you properly
*Janoshik not the other one
Inter-lab diff for lot SG-1177: 97.4% vs 96.8%. Within expected range.
the stairs thing yeah
congrats
i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did
keep going
no side effects at all is a legitimate report and it belongs here as much as the hard ones do
STEP 4 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
Batch lookup B-0329: 4 independent reports on file, earliest 2025-12-29.
blood pressure was 148 over 94 at baseline and 126 over 80 today, is that the weight or coincidence
thats a big drop
still here at month 14
Testing queue: 7 submissions open, 60 awaiting dispatch.

the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available
well done
my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial
the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance
nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 4 now
🎉1💀11🔥11
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much

went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason
follow up down 85 and my resting heart rate dropped 7 bpm, related or not
congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother, take that with a pinch of salt

youre allowed to be pleased
months not weeks
love this channel
unrelated but my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same
slow is fine
ok so down 47 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win
i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
unrelated but careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two
[edited]week three nearly finished me and im at month 7 now, does anyone want the boring version
🔥6📈1💀1
good bp move
i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off
ok so i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls
i nearly quit too
anyone else find the compliments harder to handle than the weight itself
brilliant a1c
[edited]📈13🎉14❤️1
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know
📈1🔥6
does the room want the numbers or just the story
right so my wedding ring fits again after 26 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight
🤝1📈4🙏3
thats brilliant
for the archive is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
⚠️10✅10🙏6
blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets
quick one a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it, ymmv
