If it was worth writing it was worth 900 words. Sorry.

comment on the lean mass thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/glp1muscle · 14 points · 1 year ago
Small fix — that is fat-free mass, not muscle mass. The scan cannot separate them the way the post assumes.

protein and resistance training, that is the entire intervention

research-use-only material is not approved for human use
comment on the lean mass thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/glp1muscle · 40 points · 1 year ago
That protein figure is grams per day, not grams per kilogram. Different claim entirely.
comment on [Question] CGM — what am I missing here in c/t2dglp1 · 50 points · 1 year ago
Brought the whole CGM export to my appointment rather than one number. Entirely different conversation.
comment on [Lab] SWB BPC — VendorInvestigate came back 98.5% against a claimed 98.0% in c/researchpeptides · 235 points · 1 year ago
if nobody has tested it here, that is a fact about us, not the compound
comment on does fraud actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/scamalerts · 76 points · 1 year ago
Group buys concentrate custody, payment and communication in one person with no structure behind it. That is not an accusation about anyone — it is a description of the risk shape.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for research peptides posts in c/researchpeptides · 8 points · 1 year ago
Agreed that thin testing here says something about the members, not about the material.
This is the rule for anything unusual. Identity before anything else.
comment on the heart rate thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/sideeffects · 671 points · 1 year ago
The fatigue turned out to be that I was eating about a third of what I thought I was. Tracked it for a week and the mystery evaporated.

a single DEXA is a number, two is a comparison, three is a trend
comment on [PSA] sulphur burps are not what most of this community thinks it is in c/sideeffects · 1.1k points · 1 year ago
Has anything else changed in the same window?
comment on [Discussion] reflux is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/sideeffects · 317 points · 1 year ago
holding a dose an extra month is a legitimate answer to bad tolerance
comment on nobody warned me about sulphur burps and I would have liked the warning in c/sideeffects · 352 points · 1 year ago
the food noise going quiet is the effect people came for, and nausea is the toll for the first fortnight
comment on reading resistance training threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/glp1muscle · 1 points · 1 year ago
Same DEXA machine both times?
comment on reading resistance training threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/glp1muscle · 46 points · 1 year ago
Resistance training, and at what frequency?
comment on reading resistance training threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/glp1muscle · 24 points · 1 year ago
grip strength and lift numbers are cheap longitudinal markers

comment on someone explain dose history to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/dosinglogs · 165 points · 1 year ago
That template is elaborate enough that you will stop using it by week ten. Mine was.

comment on tried weight for 3 weeks. here is what happened. in c/dosinglogs · 109 points · 1 year ago
What are you actually recording each week?
comment on week 59 check-in — 17kg down, early fullness manageable, one thing confusing me in c/sideeffects · 36 points · 1 year ago
eating slower does more than most of the supplements people recommend
comment on [Discussion] the cloned site advice in here is 3 years out of date in c/scamalerts · 5 points · 1 year ago
Yes — describe the sequence of events with dates. That is a report. Adjectives are not.
comment on [Question] is 95.1% actually fine or am I being sold a rounding error in c/scamalerts · 6 points · 1 year ago
The directory deliberately separates "we have nothing on this name" from "this went badly".
Disagreeing here: that is a delay, and this board has to keep delay and intent in separate columns.
unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about scam is guesswork — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested. The directory deliberately separates…

a1c can be affected by things that have nothing to do with glucose
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about CGM is guesswork in c/t2dglp1 · -16 points · 1 year ago
Retitled — the original quoted an obesity endpoint as a glycaemic one.
a1c_arc is right that the fasting number moves last. Knowing that in advance saves months of worry.
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about CGM is guesswork in c/t2dglp1 · 22 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that trial is the diabetes programme and the figure you quoted is its glycaemic endpoint, not a weight result.
unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about CGM is guesswork. I have gone back and forth on this for months. The three numbers, and what each one can and…
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring research peptides at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/researchpeptides · 27 points · 1 year ago
Confirmed the lead time in writing before ordering a made-to-order line. It was longer than the site suggested and entirely reasonable once explained.
comment on [Question] thymosin — what am I missing here in c/researchpeptides · 27 points · 2 years ago
Correcting my own comment: the storage condition I quoted was for the lyophilised powder, not for solution.
comment on [Question] thymosin — what am I missing here in c/researchpeptides · 1 points · 2 years ago
Small fix — that is net peptide content, not purity. Both are on the certificate and they differ substantially here.
comment on [Question] thymosin — what am I missing here in c/researchpeptides · 0 points · 2 years ago
Has anyone here tested that compound at all?
thymosin — what am I missing here. I would rather ask a basic question now than get this wrong quietly for two months. Bought small on anything without a testing…
comment on small win: sulphur burps stopped being a problem at week 55 in c/sideeffects · 6 points · 2 years ago
Nothing in this thread is medical advice, including this comment. I am describing a mechanism, not telling anybody what to do about their own week.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about fraud until somebody posts a number in c/scamalerts · 1 points · 2 years ago
Nearly paid a cloned storefront. Caught it because one character in the domain was wrong and I paste rather than type.
comment on how much of what we believe about heart rate actually comes from reflux threads in c/sideeffects · 16 points · 2 years ago
Reflux was the one that got me.
Agreed, with the caveat that "usually settles" is not "always settles" and the exceptions should still get asked about properly.
comment on genuine question about reflux that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/sideeffects · 107 points · 2 years ago
That symptom is not the one being described upthread. Two different things with similar names and the answers are not interchangeable.

holding a dose an extra month is a legitimate answer to bad tolerance
comment on [Discussion] the scam advice in here is 3 years out of date in c/scamalerts · 5 points · 2 years ago
That is an accusation about a named individual and it does not belong here in any form.
