Hey 
After a few months of reading along quietly, I'm happy to now be an actual member of this community. I'm eager to talk peptides and to contribute whatever I know.
A quick introduction: I live in southern germany and have been on GLP1s for just over a month. I'm usually in good shape and have never carried extra weight for long — my highest was 95kg during a bulk that got out of hand. Food noise and weight loss have never been a real problem for me, apart from one situation. As soon as I go past 15% bodyfat, I turn into a food vacuum and keep eating until a few kg come back, and this has repeated itself across several years. That's the reason I started with the GLP1s: to push through the last part of the cut that I couldn't manage before.
I'm aware that group testing is going on in telegram channels and similar places, but those results stay hidden from the public and never reach forums. As a community we should run our own independent QC and make sure manufacturers aren't up to shenanigans, and that simply shouldn't be happening behind closed channels. Anecdotally, I remember a post here where someone from a testing group said they voted to keep the results private, which to me is unacceptable. In my view far too little testing is happening, and we as a community need to share what we have and signal that we want peptides that have gone through rigorous QC, for every batch.
Anyway, sorry for the little rant but thats kinda it.
