HbA1c change on sema — post your before/after

5.5 -> 5.2 on 0.15mg, 11 months. 13lb loss. Fasting insulin halved.

5.7 -> 5.2 on 0.25mg over 8 months. Down 18lb. Mostly diet changes too so can't isolate the drug.

6.1 -> 5.4 on 1.0mg, 7 months. ApoB also came down 22 points. Lipid shift was the biggest surprise — expected glucose, didn't expect the cholesterol move.

5.4 -> 5.1 on 0.5mg, 4 months. Already in optimal range to start, margin was small. Still a real drop.

Honestly most of you are already basically normal range. The real test is whether this actually moves the needle for people who start at like 7.5+. Pre-diabetic to normal isn't that impressive when you're also losing weight and probably cleaning up diet just from being on the stuff. Curious if anyone here was actually diabetic or if this is just optimization theater.

yeah reading_mode has a point. most of these are marginal moves in already-normal ranges. would be way more interesting to see actual diabetics (7+) on this stuff, but tbh those people probably arent posting on forums as much
