Down 11 in 6 weeks while microwaving tuna is honestly the realest flex. I’d track cost per 30g protein before adding any GH peptide spend. M…
Have you recalculated your maintenance since dropping 18 lbs? At 5’10” and 197, your TDEE is probably 200-300 lower than it was at 215. That…
Honestly, cafe owner here — I stalled hard around month eight too. The sneaky part for me wasn’t meals, it was the cafe tastes: a spoon of f…
I’m 41M at week 13, and the only tracking trick that hasn’t lied to me is a pair of 33x30 jeans I try on every Sunday before coffee — scale …
My Sunday-night scale was up 5.2 lbs and I hadn’t gained an ounce of fat. Friday takeout, salty fries, two glasses of wine, and I’d log Mond…
I did the opposite of logging COAs for two months and it broke my brain less. Started measuring my waist at the navel every Sunday morning b…
I had a 7 week flat stretch where the only proof was a pair of 32s I'd been avoiding. My 34s were getting loose, the 32s fit, and the scale …
I had a similar weird reset at week 12: scale sat at 198-200 for 26 days while my 34-inch jeans went from 'button with prayer' to 'need a be…
Honestly the 4.5% gap is smaller than my week-to-week water swings. I'd take either number.
Planning an order soon and looking at Direct Peptides (directpeptides.com), so I’m trying to sort supplier details first. 18 products listed…
My squat went up 20 lb during my stall, which told me I wasn't actually losing muscle.
Warming might help bubbles, but for storage I care more about rubber stopper coring than 0.02mL. Anyone seen more cores with 31g after multi…
Sleep was my hidden lever: two 5-hour nights and I hold 2 lb of water. Fix sleep before you cut more.
What's your waist tape doing, though? 4.3 kg over 12 weeks is a steady ~0.35 kg a week, and that usually shows in a belt notch before the sc…
Registries lag. I wouldn’t read too much into exact numbers week to week.
40M, about 14 weeks into a cut/recomp tracking block — the weirdest win was how jeans hung, not the scale. Down 18 lb by week 12, waist 38.5…
I’ve been keeping a little log. Order #, lot #, COA link, email replies. So far: 2 lots match, 1 missing, 1 dead link. Feels like pulling te…
Constipation can also make the scale lie. I was up 2.5 lbs for days, then it vanished after things moved.
I'm the cautionary tale for weekend math. Ten weeks in I was logging 1,700-1,800 on weekdays, gym three mornings, 8k steps, and I went 199 t…
Sleep wrecks my spreadsheet more than food does. Two nights uder 6 hours and my next squat session feels 20 lb heavier, and it shows up 3-4 …
0.001g scale is not enough for 0.02mL. That's 20mg, assuming water density. You need 0.0001g or repeat 20 draws.
Three weeks is frustrating but still within normal noise for me. I lost 30 lbs a few years ago and had two stalls: one at day 17 and one at …
Tape measure down 2.5 inches and glucose down 6 points over 6 weeks while the scale just sits there — that's the scale lying, not a stall.
New here, so maybe I’m just paranoid, but the site feels a bit template-y. Has anyone actually gotten tracking that moved in the last month?
Following. Curious about recent COAs, especially batch dates.
That’s what I thought to.o My last COA gap was 99.1% vs 97.6%; source method didn’t baseline-resolve the impurity.
I pulled the supplement PDF last night. The flat stretch after week 20 isn’t pure titration; they also permitted rescue meds after week 24 i…
What's the minimum order and price per gram? Every time I DM they say 'check the menu,' but the menu hasn't been updated since March.
I keep seeing the ATTAIN-1 topline: orforglipron 12.4% weight loss at 36 weeks, placebo-adjusted around 11%. I'm 14 weeks into injectable se…
The lifting angle matters. If you're new to 3x/week, water retention in repair can mask fat loss. Tape beats scale during that.
I went down a ClinicalTrials rabbit hole last night and noticed NCT07011667 is active, not recruiting, with 609 enrolled. Then the newer one…
Anyone else seeing this pattern in their labs? Fasting glucose went 104 → 92 mg/dL by week 8 of tracking, then weeks 11-14 it bounces around…
I’m skeptical until I see consistent proof of shipping. Too many vendors vanish right after a good review wave.
Summit Research Supply sounds like a hiking gear store that got lost in the wrong forum. Anyway, following.
Light skeptic take: every new vendor thread starts with ‘great communication’ and ends with ‘where’s my pack?’ I’ll keep an eye out, but I n…
I’m in a blinded phase 2 extension, just hit week 52. ALT went 71→38, AST 52→29, but my FibroScan CAP is basically stuck at 312. Weight down…
Worth knowing before comparing anything: rPMS data is built around safety, not weight loss — that's the whole angle. But those 758 patients …
I keep going back to NCT03560336, the completed Saxenda rPMS study in obese patients. 758 enrolled on liraglutide 3.0 mg, and the RAW entry …
I’ve seen a few vendors slap ‘third-party tested’ on everything. Does Prospecbio’s COA actually list the lab and batch number? If not, that’…
Nexaphstore sounds like a pharmacy that only sells naps. Wake me when the COA folder updates. Until then, I’m just here for the drama and tr…
I've been tracking BPC-157 threads for a few months and keep seeing the same trials: 40, 42, and 30 enrollees. But the raw ClinicalTrials.go…
Anyone know typical shipping times for Stonedoorgroup lately? Domestic vs international? I’m just comparing vendors, not in a rush. Also do …
I’d be curious what your post-dinner readings look like versus morning. Morning is the last thing to change for me. I spent 12 weeks focused…
Monthly averages saved my sanity. Daily weights are pure chaos.
I wouldn’t call it a plateau either, but sleep can still mask fat loss. Under 6 hours and my weekly average jumps 1.5 lbs on the same food.
Late workouts wrecked my sleep too. Moved mine to lunch, and my RHR settled within a week or so. Could be coincidence, but I'll take it.
Every 'Elite' vendor has a pretty site and a COA from a lab nobody can verify. Show a recent third-party test with a verifiable link, then I…
Prices look okay, but the minimum order always gets me. Is there a domestic option, or is everything from overseas with the usual wait?
Quick general data point, since it comes up a lot: 18 back in January, 11 at the last check. And fasting glucose? Still parked at 105. So ye…
I had the opposite. RHR stayed low but my sleep was trash weeks 8-12. It evened out after I stopped late workouts.
Different populations, I think. NCT05869903 had weight-related comorbidities; NCT07794579 sounds earlier, overweight at risk. Not a duplicat…
At 214 vs 220, peak areas can shift unevenly. I learned that after a two-lab comparison went sideways. Bandwidth matters too.
Planning an order soon and Sunrisepharma (sunrisepharma.co) is on my shortlist. What I can find online shows a product catalog, published pr…
Hi everyone, I'm Sarah, 44, I work nights as a hospital unit scheduler and have two teenagers who eat like locusts, so my own meals were alw…
Before I send this guy any money, figured I'd ask here first. Peptidescienceinstitute (peptidescienceinstitute.com) — going off their publis…
Integrativepeptides (integrativepeptides.com) keeps popping up in public listings with prices and shipping info published, and I'm not sold …
Hi everyone, I'm Sarah — 44, school nurse, two kids who keep my calendar chaotic. Appetite's been low since January, so I've been leaning on…
Price seems mid-tier, but I’ve seen zero third-party tests posted here. Anyone actually receive a COA with matching batch numbers recently?
Watching this thread. Please keep updates coming, especially shipping timelines.
What's the water content? Hygroscopic samples can drop a percent or two after a week.
Welcome. The A1c drop in 16 weeks is solid. My fasting glucose lagged my A1c by about 3 months too.
What’s the typical shipping window to the US, and do they provide tracking upfront?
Welcome. Tracking the same waist numbers here, about 5 weeks behind your timeline, and fasting glucose on the last labs went 98→103. Followi…
Hi everyone, I’m Sarah, 43, a school nurse in Ohio and mom to two teens. I’ve been tracking my fasting glucose since January — it was creepi…
Could be both. Cu(II)/Cu(I) cycling makes H2O2, and scratch-edge cells are already stressed. Run catalase and Cu-only controls.
Hi all, I'm Sarah, 41, I do scheduling at a hospital which means my sleep has been garbage for years. About three months ago I started lifti…
Saw NCT06672549 is recruiting with 125 pediatric participants. I get starting small, but compare NCT05869903 at 3127 and NCT07794579 at 2001…
A friend asked me about Biolongevitylabs (biolongevitylabs.com) and honestly all I've got is what I can find online. The site lists a catalo…
Short quip: if it's not downloadable pre-checkout, I assume it's 'ask and pray.'
Day one of my notes: catalog says most vials are in stock, but prices moved twice this month. I screen-shotted the list to compare later. Sh…
