tolerance to the gastric effect develops, appetite effect largely persists

Yes — four nations, four pathways, and threads that ignore that give people the wrong answer confidently.

Agreed on rigid packaging. It costs the shipper almost nothing and it predicts a lot about the rest of the operation.

Yes — time in range tells you about variability, which the average deliberately hides.

Yes — median rather than best case. The fastest anybody ever got is not a plan.

What is the actual question underneath the question? Happy to answer both.

Has the appetite changed, even if the scale has not?

Correcting myself: 21 weeks, not the figure I wrote. The story is the same and I had rounded it in my favour.
Check-in as promised in the title: chased the scale instead of the labs for a year. Chased the scale instead of the measurements for a year and made myself miserable…

comment on someone explain gastric emptying to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/glp1science · 1 points · 1 months ago
Tried to build a mental model from mechanism alone and produced a confident prediction that the trial data flatly contradicted.
comment on someone explain gastric emptying to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/glp1science · 3 points · 1 months ago
Started reading limitations sections first.
tomas_lundgren is right that mechanism gives direction and not magnitude. Worth pinning.
Trying to get a straight answer on this: someone explain gastric emptying to me like I have not read a paper in years. Why mechanism talk keeps misleading people,…

Accused the wrong party publicly and it was my storage. Correcting it here was the most uncomfortable post I have made and the right one.
comment on does below spec actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/darkspot · 0 points · 2 months ago
Right, and stopping for money reasons is not a failure of anything. It is a budget.

This. Correcting a wrong accusation in public is the hardest and most valuable post anybody makes here.

Clearance took three days and the carrier took nine. I had been blaming the wrong half for two years.

declared value and description are the shipper’s decision, ask what they use
comment on how much of what we believe about what went wrong actually comes from failure threads in c/darkspot · 20 points · 4 months ago
Agreed. The failures are the part that is missing from every other board, which is why this one matters.
comment on [Meta] the mechanism rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/glp1science · -18 points · 4 months ago
Same view.
Adding the caveat the paper itself makes in its limitations section, which is stronger than anything in this thread.
comment on [Meta] the mechanism rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/glp1science · 0 points · 4 months ago
Correcting my own comment: I attributed that to the GIP arm and the paper attributes it to the GLP-1 arm.
Putting this to the board: the mechanism rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining. The half-life explanation was the thing that made weekly dosing…

Agreed on rigid packaging. It costs the shipper almost nothing and it predicts a lot about the rest of the operation.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify glycaemic control in c/t2dglp1 · 30 points · 5 months ago
Variability dropped before the average did, which was visible on the sensor and invisible on the lab result.
